HAPPY REDNECK HILLBILLY MILTIA DAY!!!

I'm so happy that a bunch of guys with small penises and huge egos can now again buy mahcine guns. What an amazing day, I'm sure the NRA is happy that the public can buy automatic guns again. I feel so much safer from terrorism knowing that Billy-Bob down the street is packing an AK. I think we should lift the ban on personal nuclear weapons, rpgs and mortar rounds. Lets just all have arsenals, because thats what this country is all about right?

If you'd bother to inform yourself rather than typing out yet another knee-jerk Pavlovian response to an issue the Lefties have successfully indoctrinated you on, you'd know that not a single phrase in the above post bears even a nodding acquaintance with reality.

Check the ban, king. It's to ban assault rifles, not automatic weapons, automatic weapons have been banned for a long ass fucking time.

Dude...for the zillionth time...I think I have said this in about five posts...
Automatic weapons are illegal in the U.S. You can only get them if you have a very hard to get, expensive, and background search intensive license. Usually, only gun dealers have it.
The Assault Rifle ban applies to SEMI-AUTOMATIC weapons. This ban did not make the semi-automatic assault rifles illegal. It made it so that certain accessories on NEWLY manufactured guns were not allowed or they were regulated. So, the guns themselves remained legal throughout 1994-2004 and the guns that were manufactured before the ban(the guns that had all of the "bad" characteristics) were allowed to remain legal and in circulation. For the gazillionth time...This law did absolutely nothing...even from an anti-gun position. It is a useless and symbolic law that served absolutely no purpose(other than to misinform people in my opinion).

Automatic weapons are still illegial. This has not changed since 1934 I believe.

The second ammendment is not about hunting. All of the anti-gun people need to get this through their heads.

I understand that it is not about hunting, its the right to bear arms. Now which arms should you have a right to bear, well, that's up for debate.
Damn man, did you not notice the , which generally, in western cultures, connotates a degree of joviality?

Well I am going to correct you.
Owning a Class 3 weapon requires a background check that validates that you are not felon. (Cost: 0$) Some areas have a "Decline all" attitude. Because of this there are now 5 ways to get approved.
#1 local sheriff. #2 local police commissioner. #3 The SO of the Local FBI Field office. #4 The SO of the local ATF office. #5 Incorporate. Corporations can own full automatic weapons with out the background check.
Tax on purchase of a class 3 weapon is $200 per automatic weapon. 5$ per short barrel shotgun or silencer.
Oh and the M60 will run you a cool $5000! Man they are a blast to shoot!

The "Bad Characteristics" were almost laughable!
#1 A semiautomatic rifle that can accept a detachable magazine and has more than one of the following features: pistol grip, folding or telescoping stock, flash suppressor, threaded barrel, grenade launcher, or bayonet lug. #2 A semiautomatic shotgun that has more than one of the following features: pistol grip, folding or telescoping stock, detachable magazine, fixed magazine capacity of more than 5 rounds. #3 A semiautomatic pistol that can accept a detachable magazine that has more than one of the following features: magazine attaches to the pistol outside the grip, threaded barrel, weight of 1.42 kg or more unloaded, barrel shroud, or a semiautomatic version of a fully automatic firearm.
That is what was in it. My big question is other than cosmetics what does it matter? Is a weapon with a pistol grip and a folding or telescoping stock more dangerous than one with out those?

I hear you, so do you think that militias ( which is a broad term, which gun right activists twist to fit their agenda sometimes) should be allowed to bear ANY arms they can get their hands on?
I mean, if we restrict which weapons, then we have infringed, right?

Well I am going to correct you.
Please do.
Owning a Class 3 weapon requires a background check that validates that you are not felon. (Cost: 0$)
Really? I heard to even go about getting an FFL class 3 required a down payment of $1000. I heard that nowadays they were really bitchy about who they gave it to. I am basing this information on what I have heard other gun enthusiasts tell me. They could have been wrong however. I do know for a fact that automatic rifles and the permit required to go along with them are not available to anybody who walks in off the street, like the anti-gun lobby thinks will happen with the expiration of the assault rifle ban.
Some areas have a "Decline all" attitude. Because of this there are now 5 ways to get approved.
#1 local sheriff. #2 local police commissioner. #3 The SO of the Local FBI Field office. #4 The SO of the local ATF office. #5 Incorporate. Corporations can own full automatic weapons with out the background check.
Tax on purchase of a class 3 weapon is $200 per automatic weapon. 5$ per short barrel shotgun or silencer.
Hm..interesting. I might go for my class 3 license. Although, being wary of the government, I wonder if they will peg me as some Right-wing "militia" guy and harass me or something.
Oh and the M60 will run you a cool $5000! Man they are a blast to shoot!
I so want a fully functional MP5(like the Navy Seals use for close quarters assaults). That gun is so badass.
The "Bad Characteristics" were almost laughable!
I agree.
My big question is other than cosmetics what does it matter? Is a weapon with a pistol grip and a folding or telescoping stock more dangerous than one with out those?
No. The anti-gun lobby is not known for being rational and making efforts to address the gun violence problem in constructive ways.

First of all there is a difference between arms and ordinance. Arms are small arms (rifles pistols etc) while ordinance are things like cannons.
Second of all the people are the militia.

I heard a lot of this stuff before I got my Thompson Submachine gun. Most of it is bunk but make sure to check your state laws. Some states put requirements on the weapon and how it is stored. Just a way to find a reason to turn you down. Oh, If they want to know why you want to own it. Tell them it is an investment. The value doubles every 2 years.

Normally they don't care as long as you do not have a felony record.

Now you have a problem. Since the Firearms Owners' Protection Act of May 19, 1986, ownership of newly manufactured machine guns has been prohibited to civilians. Machine guns which were manufactured prior to the Act's passage are regulated under the National Firearms Act, but those manufactured after the ban cannot ordinarily be sold to or owned by civilians.
