Yeah. That's why people (okay, I meant to say liberal commie bastards, but I was trying to be sensitive) saying an AR-15 is so "dangerous" because it's an "automatic". Same deal, one trigger pull, one shot.

Now, I'm not too familiar with the AR-15, but with the old Nato 762 SLR, I could fix that with 5 seconds and a matchstick.* I wouldn't be surprised if the AR was not much different. * It took a little longer, and more than a matchstick, to get the damn thing to stop firing when you took your finger off the trigger.

I guess I better bite the bullet :) and stock up before Hillary gets elected and does her crazy shit.

I told my psychiatrist that I was hearing voices in my head. He said you don't have a psychiatrist!Hey, man - don't be so negative. The Trump may get elected, and then you'll get 200 rounds free every week, AND time off work to practice. Worked for the English, when we kicked some French butt at Crecy and Agincourt - mandatory longbow training every Sunday, subsidized by the squire. Actually, I sometimes wonder if that English law had some input to the Second Amendment - it was damned effective.

Then maybe more a soapbox issue? [Edit] It is truly remarkable how here are members favors by their Points or than Duration of membership! [/Edit]
You are completely right. If a new person would have posted this same message many would have suggested it go to the soapbox. High rep members are definitely favored, or perhaps just trusted more.

As it should be. In fact, I was thinking CP should erect a virtual sacrificial alter to the high rep users, and every Friday, we select a low-rep user to eviscerate in full view of the masses, simply to ensure they know not to f*ck with us.

I am equally deadly with a bow and slingshot (and I do pretty well at casting stones, too). I mention this just in case any of the liberal serfs here dare suggest we go back to medieval weapons.

How quickly we forget we were all new once. ;)

I've never been "new".

I will do it, but look, the latest comment to me from Dave K* it is an example again how high rep responds to low rep here. I'm not sure to stay here :( Bruno
I have low rep, but I've never really been on the receiving end of (truly) negative treatment in any area of the forums (and I've definitely said some stupid shit!) At least not to the level that would make me feel unwelcome. My perspective is that the higher rep people here are actually rather nice, level-headed people; a stark contrast to most of the rest of the internet. Maybe it's related to username? (Wouldn't that be an interesting psychology study?) That name on my account is indeed mine; for whatever reason (I genuinely don't know) I don't feel the need to hide behind a pseudonym here (and certainly do almost everywhere else.) Maybe that helps to humanize me, which leads to more humane treatment... Then again, there are also certain people here who seem to be bigger a-holes than the rest (not naming names!,) so maybe I've just been lucky to not have interacted with them.

You have to drill another hole in the receiver and use a different sear. A matchstick won't do it.
