You know what is crazy about the defense of AR 15
In civilian hands?

"They have no flash suppressor, they don't have a bayonet lug, they don't have a selector..." Enough already, with all these deficiencies, these weapons are fund around the world in actual combat zones.

I took care of really bad guys shot by the army (not the US Army) with FAL battle riffles. I aso took care of good guys shot by AR -15 type weapons. They share the same exact ammunition.

You know the crazy part, both sides had their weapons set in the same accurate fire, one by choice, the other by need.

So stop preaching. Christianne Ammampour mentioned she saw them in Bosnia. And in other places around the word.

Let me tell you something, the worst massacre I had the pleasure of tending to, was only five. It was still a war zone. So damn it, yes, I can picture the pools of blood, the coppery smell, the human waste they found, and the destroyed bodies. I can see them in my mind's eye. So please, those f you arguing but, but it s the most popular riffle...not just in the US...it is also quite popular in war zones.

So think about that when you make that...yes stupid, NRA talking point, derived argument.

If you have not noticed, many of us are tired of them, six rounds a second...100 minute. Enough is enough.

So are 9mm's and shotguns, you dumb fat bitch.

[Celtic Rose]

6 rounds a second is actually 360 a minute

Don't confuse a liberal with facts.

FAL=.308
AR15=.223 (or 5.56mm)

NOT THE SAME, although I do encourage the DUmmies to prove me wrong.

I am just in awe that she thinks that highly of herself.  She is like a skit on SNL.

Gee; I don't know if they can come up with enough cinder block and chicken wire in this horrible BOOOOOOOSH 0-conomy.

That one stumped me as to what the crazy bald dwarf omni-expert was even trying to say, but I finally figured that she must have meant they were both firing semi-auto only.

 

[marv]

When will the bald dwarf stop confusing AR-15s and M-16s?

And then...

So damn it, yes, I can picture the pools of blood, the coppery smell, the human waste they found, and the destroyed bodies. I can see them in my mind's eye.

...the hyperbole of her imagination......

3. Will you please, PLEASE stop spelling the word as "riffle"

View profile
The weapon is a "RIFLE" with one "F".

Riffle rhymes with piffle and sniffle.

Rifle rhymes with stifle and pie full.

You have been doing that a lot lately. It's getting annoying.

Someone going on ignore in...3, 2, 1.

2. Not quite true

The FAL fires a .308 round, not a .223, which is more destructive, particularly if non FMJ rounds are being used.

This is not a minor detail. A .308 (7.62 NATO, the round the M-14 uses) is vastly more destructive.

The tradeoffs are much more recoil and an infantryman can carry far fewer rounds due to weight.

six rounds a second...100 minute.

Sixty centimeters in a meter.

Maybe she has some sort of learning disorder that makes her confused about numbers when 6's and 100's are involved.  Or perhaps she is very confused about the duodecimal system.

GOBUCKS is probably right. She was probably talking about metric seconds.

Ah, yes, of course!  Metric Seconds.  Those would of course be very confusing to plebeian Americans like ourselves.

Yes.

Perfect!    But that would be some 20th century iteration of SNL though.

Face it .That bitch is crazy. And I'm betting her keyboard has half the letters missing. or its been so abused by the short bald crazy dwarf that tthe ones she has stick a  lot.

[jukin]

IIRC, a British infantry man has the record at 38 rounds a minute on target with the Enfield 303 in the 30s.  The 303 was a kick ass round that was said to be able to penetrate a railroad rail. Bolt action and reloads included. I'm sure that the Enfield first made in the 19th century (for lurking DUmmys that is the 1800s) would be considered whatever the "scare the morons" term the democrat party has come up with lately for riffles.

I had a chance to get a Longbranch Enfield a few years ago and still kick my self for not "pulling the trigger" on that buy.

I haven't checked ballistics tables, but .303 British is not as powerful a round as a .30-06.

I've always thought of it as more like .308 Win., and maybe a hair less.

I may nadin the ballistics later.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mad_minute

Mad minute was a pre-World War I term used by British riflemen during training to describe scoring 15 hits onto a 12" round target at 300 yd (274.3 m) within one minute using a bolt-action rifle (usually a Lee-Enfield or Lee-Metford rifle). It was not uncommon during the First World War for riflemen to greatly exceed this score. Many riflemen could average 30+ shots, while the record, set in 1914 by Sergeant Instructor Alfred Snoxall was 38 hits.[1] It was rumored that a company of assaulting German soldiers reported that they had faced machine gun fire, while in fact it was a rifle squad of ten men firing at this rate. Annually, a group of British owners meet for a mad minute competition.

"They have no flash suppressor, they don't have a bayonet lug, they don't have a selector

I have to rush home.  I could have swore my Rock River had a flash suppressor and selector switch when I left this morning.  Leave it to Nads for being a true idiot.

She is like the real people behind SNL. Saw a behind the scenes last week where they took credit for getting GWB elected, making youtube popular and ending male dominance in comedy.

[oldcrow]

6 rounds a second is actually 360 a minute 

Not in the Metric system!
