Re: First Firearm Thread.

It's sad that in America people must lobby in order for us to maintain a constitutional right.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Actually, it is only $25 a year if you use this link: http://membership.nrahq.org/default....ignid=XR018983 The NRA set up an affiliate agreement with AR15.com and you get a $10 discount if you use the link above :tu

If you are into guns, you should definitely be a NRA member right now. This is the most important time to be a member. There is a lot of crap in the works that the new administration will try to get passed.

Great Video. The second amendment is for our protection from the government. The second amendment was not meant to ensure our right to hunt.

Link in my sig. Sign up. Sign your kids up. Sign your dog up. Sign your friends up. I average at least 1 friend / acquaintance a week I sign up. It's $10. I spend more than that on a damb stogie. If you know someone who is a gun owner that is not a member of the NRA, they are not part of the solution, they are part of the problem.

90 million gun owners in the US, my friends. With that kind of voting power, there isn't a pro-2nd ammendment bit of legislation we wouldn't be able to get passed.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

I'll have to take some pictures of my collection tonight. Just signed up for the NRA thanks for the link.

I don't know who owns all this ammo :dance:

Right now, ammo is the best investment you can have.

Tell her to come to Canada...

I have been working on geting my gun license for the past 3 years. Not to say that this could not have been done easier (some can get it in as little as 3 months) but I am a little lazy. First you have to take a class on gun saftey, then you write a written test, then you perform a practical test. After this you fill out 2 forms, one for long guns (unrestricted) and one for handguns (restricted). You then send these forms along with your proof of completing the saftey course and proof of being a registered member at a gun club (if applying for a handgun license) 3 character references, and a smiling picture of yourself:). They then do a full background check on you and see that you arn't in the loony bin or out to hurt anyone. If you are lucky you recieve your licence back in 3 months, if your not it can take much much longer. Once you get your license back you have the regional chief of firearms come over to your house and inspect that you have proper storage for your firearms as not to have them stolen (of course seprate facilities for guns and amunition). You then get to buy your guns. Rifles take about a couple days to have the registration filled out and handguns can take a week or two. You are now the proud owner of a gun. Oh wait there are even more resitrictions.
Handguns may only be transported from locked safe, to firing range in a locked container... this is to say there is no such thing as a permit to carry.
You are not allowed to own any automatic weapons (not a big surprise here) or converted automatic weapons of any kind. Any handgun must have a barrel that is 5" in length or more (no snub nose). Handguns have a maximum ammo cap at 10 rounds (even if they can hold more mags have to be converted to 10 max). Rifles can only have 5 rounds... No tactical/ zombie hunting weapons for me.

Now you have a breif introduction at Canadian gun laws. What I don't understand is why they think Canada has to implement tougher laws... If someone is legally aquiring a gun... they are not going to use it to harm anyone. If I am a criminal do I really want to go through all that hassel...

End of rant:tu

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

What is the government going to do with ammo?

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Tax us out of the wazoo, put serial numbers on every casing, and make reloading illegal cause they wont be able to tax us. Making ammo cost sooo much that the average person cant afford it is much easier than going house to house and confiscating our weapons.
