2 people that have told you they own guns. I met 30 Aussies this year who owned guns. They don't talk about it when they're at home because they're persecuted for it.
If you are in the country I imagine lots of people have them. Not so many around the city though I imagine.

Who knows.

When the gun control arguments come out, we have to remember where a lot of people, who aren’t familiar with firearms but want to just be virtuous and argue on social media, get their information...

They just had someone on NPR that said the AR (which she said stands for Automatic Rifle o_O) should be banned because it's an assault weapon.

People are so fucking stupid.

Crazy how the ArmaLite rifle *cough* AR *cough* was born right in the middle of liberal utopia in Hollywood, CA.

Why have so many people gone and bought this thing that makes it fire quicker?
Because they make the bang stick pew pew go pewpewpewpewpewpewpew


Also, people in the gun community tend to over purchase things when there's a chance they may become banned or restricted. I've fired them and they're unreliable and extremely hard to be accurate with, so I don't care to own one.

Really?

Interesting how people run out and buy things as soon as they fear they might be getting banned.

How much is the price mark up on an old automatic weapon these days?
$20k for a shitty M16A1

Fuck eh, that's a crazy mark up.
THe government capped supply in 1986 and that shot the price up. The prices really haven't changed much since then. So imagine one day you can buy a fully auto M16 for a couple grand and then the next day that same weapon is around $20k. That's just the weapon itself. You still have to pay the fees and taxes for the process to get approved to own it and there's no guarantee you get approved. In all my years of being around firearms, I've only met two people that have gone through the process and own fully automatic weapons.

What I'm finding funny about the current gun ban push is that if Trump's in power for another term the companies will all be fucking bankrupt anyways.
