handgun question???

[The village idiot]

I wanna get myself one of these... anyone know what kind it is?

Looks like a blonde about 5'2"

Looks less blonde and more brown to me. At any rate, I'll take 2 please

[testicool]

I wouldn't wanna mess with a chick like this or this is what my car would look like if I piss her off....

Besides it's illegal for minors to buy guns anyway. It's the seller who is responsible to determin if he/she is old enough, not us...

Can you say...Black Market?? In the description, he(or she) said "book sac", which implies he's a student and most students can not legally purchase a weapon(unless they go to graduate school).

So I was right?? Wow.....I guessed right with the M4.

Looks like playing video games does teach you something.......gonna go call my parents now and rub it in their faces.

Hatz

That assault rifle could be a CAR-15 as well. You don't see many M4s outside the States. That may also be just a stabilizer on that rifle. I don't see why you'd have all that sharpshooter gear on that .223 only to make the silencer slow the bullet down so much. That wouldn't be very good at ranges over 100 yds.

I own a pair of Colt 1911s that were government and saw use in WWII. They're basically the old school .45s as seen in "Last Man Standing". I also own a H&K USP Tactical in the same caliber. Like thayne's I've never had a casing stovepipe on me whereas all the Glocks I've shot have done this. All these handguns and I have a permit to conceal and carry in the state I live in yet I don't think I'll ever take them out of the gun locker. I just don't like carrying them around with me.

I like rifles more. I have a completely outfitted H&K G90 that's my favorite weapon. I've bested military sharpshooters with my rig, but don't let it get out I used to use it for deer hunting even, but then it just got so silly being able to down a deer from a half mile away so I bowhunt now. My collection hardly gets used other than 3-4 times a year I go out to the range.

You people should watch Bowling for Columbine

Kinda strange to link to site outlining one of the worst gun tragedies in the UK for an irresponsible thread such as this.
Even stranger is it comes from a moderator who should have closed this thread down.
What's most bizarre is the 'laugh' emoticon at the end of the post, what's that all about?
Baldrick has closed gun threads down in the past when they have simply discussed the validity of gun ownership, yet here you are advocating the choice of a weapon.
Well done.

I dont see this breaking forum rules in any way... maybe im missing something.
the link was the 1st one to come up when i typed in Beretta 9mm into the images portion of google.com. I didnt only have it as a link to show the picture and desription of the weapon itself.

Where I live its legal to carry handguns in your car so this kind of a post doesnt shock me at all...
the laugh was because it is in no way what type of gun the poster is looking for but is instead my favorite gun (sorry, thought the humor was implied...)

[BJ_M]

if he/she carries a gun in a book sack .. not going to offer much protection anyway ...

ahh there it is under my lunch ...


duh!

I wouldn't watch that filth if it were the only film in the world.... I might use the DVD for target practice though if you want to send me a copy

After watching the movie my immediate thought was to look for an article like this.

[vitualis]

I'd agree that Bowling for Columbine was a terrible documentary (insofar as veracity), but from an outsider looking in (regardless of that doco), it seems to me that the USA has some serious problems with gun related crime and gun related deaths. I doubt arming the citizentry to the teeth is part of the solution...

Looks like Virtualis has lost his mod rights for his outrageous views on US gun control

I agree. What a great movie!! He should have made more fun of the KKK and the South though.

But we must be armed to fight the English off our land! Oh wait, we did that 200 years ago, we just haven't updated our laws since then

It's our constitutional right to own firearms and even to form a militia, though it seems so silly now. I don't think guns protect people other than in the hands of trained law enforcement officers (or vigilantes ). Some argue we could be invaded and we'll need weapons to defend our homes. The arguments to keep this right, for the most part, are downright ludicrous with hardly any data to support the facts they put forward. Not that I'd like to see guns banned completely as I still believe in hunting game (I only hunt for food, not for sport), and I think handguns are sometimes fun to shoot in the appropriate setting (given the American heritage of the handgun as well).

Such as already been said here, owning a handgun does not necessarily make you safer than if you didn't. I say if you want to defend yourself learn kendo and carry a sword around with you. I think if you were facing a criminal and drew a sword it would just scare the crap out of them, even more so than a big handgun. Personally I'd rather be shot than hacked at with a blade

Not if he had a Glock...

[RabidDog]

Hes obviously taking the piss (poster) . Or they are not allowed to physically touch the teachers. Or he thinks the matrix looked "real cool" and wonders if he can do that. Women never do these shootings do they??

Bored, alienated teenager+ gun= ??????

Bowling for columbine quite good but slightly confused mesage.

Now banking with Wells-Fargo!!

[SLK001]

This thread is getting out of hand. Seems like everyone with an opinion (however flawed) is weighing in on this one. Bowling for Columbine is a good film? Yeah, like Hitler at Nuremburg was a "good" film. Both of these were simply propaganda. You want to see just what gun control does? You need look no further than The United Kingdom and Australia for the answers. Since they enacted their complete ban of firearms, violent crimes against the citizenry has sky-rocketed - and I mean has jumped more than 100% (Australia has suffered even more, with a jump of over 500%).

In this country (the U.S.), interviews with jailed criminals have revealed the criminals greatest fears - that of confronting an armed victim and getting their asses shot off. In England and Australia, this concern has been removed (by legislation) from the minds of the criminals.

As for facts, here is one that that idiot Moore didn't highlight in his propaganda piece. When a state enacts a "right to carry" law (a law that lets citizens carry concealed weapons), violent crime drops dramatically.

I could go on and on, but this really isn't the forum for this. I could also cite the proper references for what I have said, but I don't have them handy. Anyway, even moderate searching on your part can easily locate them.

Our laws are made and changed everyday. If they were, then whats the Senate and H.O.R. for?

And I agree Bowling for Columbine plays too many unpatriotic notes.

Well this thread certainly has turned into a big bowl of politics It will be locked soon.
