While there is a push to ban assault rifles, why not ban sniper rifles?
Here, for example, is a Remington 700:

 [photo or rifle]

Some civilians own this type of rifle.
  :thatsright:

GTFO! Yes, lets ban HUNTING weapons.

4. Could it be that isn't a sniper rifle, but is actually a hunting rifle?

And rifles of ALL times account for only 3% of all firearm deaths?


Poor mole. Not long for DU.

13. Does that take a clip or is it the kind you pull the handle back?

Scary looking and not the kind of hunting rifles I imagined.

Lets get rid of them

another mole not long for DU. DU had a ppurge of Pro-Gun lifers a while ago. Even the forum set aside for pro-gun is swamped with anti-gun fanatics.

I have two 700s, a .222 heavy barrel and a .300 Savage classic model.

They both hold four, plus one in the chamber.

They're both great riffles, although the Classic was shipped with about a ten pound trigger pull with a huge amount of creep. A lawyer special.

I had a trigger job done on it and now it breaks like glass at about 2.5 or 3 pounds, perfect for me.

I have a 700 classic in 243 and I sniped quite a few deer with it. Many cross canyon shots!

"Liberalism is an essentially feminine, submissive world view. Perhaps a better adjective than feminine is infantile. It is the world view of men who do not have the moral toughness, the spiritual strength to stand up and do single combat with life, who cannot adjust to the reality that the world is not a huge, pink-and-blue, padded nursery in which the lions lie down with the lambs and everyone lives happily ever after."

I expected this, and I'm sure a lot of others did, too. These morons would ban revolvers because of the scary "cylinder" that spins around flinging "cop-killer bullets" at innocents. They have no intention of ending their push with an AWB. It's sickening that anything "scary looking" to them is on the table for a ban.

I have a Remington 700 SPS Tactical AAC-SD in .308. Hell will freeze over before I hand that one in.

I had a Remington 700 for a short while many years ago.  It had a two-position selectable trigger.  One was a standard 5-6 pound pull, the other was something like 1.5-2 pounds.  You could sneeze and the damn thing would go off.

135. That is a normal bolt-action rifle with a high quality scope.

The only difference between it and a 'classic hunting rifle' is the fact that the stock is black, rather than made out of wood.

Which was one of the criteria used by you gun-grabbing, ignorant nuts. "It's black! OMG! It looks scary! Let's ban it!" Idiots.

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site

The 700 is considered THE sport hunting rifle.

That's bad....bad, bad, bad riffle....should be outlawed.

NO! What's truly bad about that riffle is that I don't own one.

A set trigger on a 700? Gotta believe that's some kind of aftermarket finagling.
