Yeah well it is not like I approve of it myself, but that guy back then made me fucking angry and I showed him who is boss. After all I wasn't stationed in Germany during the end of the Cold War because I wanted that, I was stationed there because I was drafted. Has got a lot to do with Germany starting three big wars in a row in an historically short time, starting with the Franco-Prussian War.
Anyway for the rest I agree with you zipfero, it should be hard to get a licence.
Some target practice with arrow and bow I would really like, preferably stuff that I make myself.

I believe that you are correct. The main reason that is true is because people don't take owning a firearm as seriously as they should. I'm a firm believer in proper training and in proper storage and maintenance of firearms (or anything that can shoot a projectile that can kill anything). With that being said, I also believe that people should have proper training to use a computer or have children, but neither are going to happen. Luckily, the stupid ones either shoot themselves or shoot someone who is stupid enough to get around the idiot with the firearm, and thusly, they thin the herd.

Hmm the most stupid bullet can kill the smartest man. The herd will be thinned down to stupidy most likely.

What is the use of owning a 250+ HP car?
I am no friend of guns, and I see not many people killed with guns over here, so I guess a ban on firearms outside of hunting is a good thing.
I can see the fun in hunting or at a shooting range though.

It's times like these I love America.. Wanna get it into the range to test fire if he'll let me
Those spikey things on the top are rails..it allows you to add universal components and place them along the top half wherever you want. They will slide down the top and "click" into each little spike kind of like the way handcuffs work. A beautiful weapon..and an excellent choice for taking out prey at 1.5-2KM |
Hey I can use that to unclog my toilet! Too bad guns are illegal in Holland...

Some people like the skill and discipline of practicing marksmanship. There's a lot involved with acquiring your shot so the learning aspect is what drives most people.
Me personally I like my shotguns, I love clay shooting.

But seriously, shooting a .50 cal for marksmanship? It's an anti-vehicle rifle..whats wrong with an M40 or the like for that
your shoulder must be smurf colored all the time
8 out of 10 dentists prefer zipfero to competing brands(fraich3 and Mutantius)!

The Barrett .50 isn't really that terrible on the shoulder, it's (from what I hear) one of the more pleasant .50's to shoot.

Whether or not it's a common sentiment doesn't really mean there is a need to be an ass about it. It makes your own countries look rather shallow and hypocritical on the issue when the only two responses are "Why do you want the gun" and when an answer is given, a followup of LOL AMERRUHHKIUHHHH FAT ASSES!

Hmm that's why I avoid the discussion but your constitutional right to own firearms dates back to the 18th century. A different time and place. You tell me if in the current USA this right is still very functional.

It's very much not..and I'm even defending the right to own guns. I have the right however..and I enjoy firing them at the range. I guess it was a bit too much to hope to be able to discuss something that I (and apparently a few others) enjoy on the hump without controversy..but I had my hopes.
