I love the use of the phrase "military style" or "assault weapons."  Has nothing to do with the functionality or lethality of the weapon per se, but it looks "scary" so it needs to be banned post haste.  Of course, if someone is taking a shot at me, I'll take my chances against a 55-grain 5.56 or .223 round versus a .308/7.62 mm slug coming my way.

Probably why I don't have an AR-15 or Bushmaster, and do have some other guns with a little more "ass" behind them.

Like cars or people, each one has its own stengths and weaknesses.  Both are in the limited selection of calibers I'll buy.

Those signs make handy-dandy target holders.
Quite plentiful after elections, and free for the taking.
Too bad that socialist Steve Dawes only has two available. :bawl:

John Adams warned in a letter, “Remember democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet, that did not commit suicide.”

Its a wonder why they want to ban anything based on how evil something looks. They might as well try and ban Klingon Disruptors because it has about the same effect as most Anti gun laws.

My Bushmaster with home-brewed hollowpoints, works great on Coyotes.......a .308 would be "overkill".....
