Slaughter in vegas

Handguns in the hand of citizens who have a clean record and have been thoroughly checked for mental disorders or red flags and legally purchased the handgun are ok. Video games that don't have playable scenes where kids walk into an airport as Russians and gun down a thousand innocent people or scenes closely related to that story line are ok.

Which one of two options has the higher probability of killing someone?

It's pretty insulting to make them equivalent.

Um no. That same Supreme Court decided Heller and McDonald in 2008 and 2010 respectively. Describing the court as anything but conservative, especially in regards to gun control, is nonsensical unless it's an admission that conservatism had gone off the rails.

None of that has anything to do with new proposed legislation. Where is the proposed gun control legislation that Obama and the Dem Congress tried to push through as they did with Obamacare?

Yes. We must have different definitions of capacity somehow.

DG hasn't moved beyond "ramming rounds down the barrel" so to him, 'capacity' is how many minie balls he's shoved down the tube
 
The rebuttal argument of America doesn't have too many guns, America has too many crazy people is absurd. If we have a mental health problem, then we don't need so many fucking guns.

Honest question, dude: wtf do you need three handguns?
 
DG3 said:
Yes, right. I think we're on the same page just not with terminology.

Capacity is the number of rounds a gun/magazine can hold before you reload. Using the bolt isn't the same a reloading. There are people that can work the bolt and fire in succession with surprising speed.

Agreed. Just responding to the assertion that Dems had control over all three branches of government under Obama.

As to gun control legislation prior to 2010, I imagine they didn't have the votes and healthcare was a higher priority.

Again, are you suggesting that if Dems had 2/3 of each chamber and a liberal SC they wouldn't pass comprehensive gun control?

Mad Minute


The Mad Minute is best known as a bolt-rifle speed shooting event, which was derived from a pre-World War I rapid-fire exercise used by British Army riflemen, using the Lee–Enfield service rifle. The exercise (Practice number 22, Rapid Fire, ‘The Musketry Regulations, Part I, 1909) required the rifleman to fire 15 rounds at a “Second Class Figure” target at 300 yards. The practice was described as; “Lying. Rifle to be loaded and 4 rounds in the magazine before the target appears. Loading to be from the pouch or bandolier by 5 rounds afterwards. One minute allowed”.

A Mad Minute event was held in Soknedal, Norway, on 30 May 2015 featuring some of the best stang shooters in the country.[3] The competition was called the "Mad Minute Challenge"[1], and was shot at a round 400 mm diameter target at 200 meters (2 mils/ 6.9 moa), making the target smaller than original. The winner, Thomas Høgåsseter, scored 36 hits. The average score, of 11 shooters, was 29.
