Do as I say, NOT as I do....

Seems like some people have more rights to Personal Defense Weapons than others....

Found the RFP here:

(I actually like the term "Personal Defense Weapon." Has nice ring to it! Thanks DHS!!!!)

Good article. It is funny though how some think it's a good weapon for defense for them but not us. They say it's an Assault Weapon when we own it.

[Monky]

They're just personally defending themselves from our assault weapons.. c'mon guys.. for the children.

I would expect nothing less from the government. Bunch of crap!

+1.... with you all the way on that.

It would be cool to see gun manufacturers with government contracts only manufacture guns if for military use. Any other government entity like the FBI, ATF, DHS, etc that thinks they need "assault weapons" can go to their LGS and wait in line like the rest of us. If we don't have access (or have limited access) to them, why should they?

Yeah, that's a shocker. WTH is wrong with people?

DHS sure has been buying up a lot of guns & ammo over the past couple of years...

According to Steve McGough ofRadioViceOnline.com (http://radioviceonline.com/department-of-homeland-security-sport-rifle-ar-15-suitable-for-personal-defense/), DHS said the "select-fire" weapons are “suitable for personal defense use in close quarters.” The weapons sought by the DHS would be capable of semi-automatic and automatic fire and would be equipped with high-capacity 30-round magazines, the same type some want to see banned for use by civilians.

So where can I buy these new production select fire pdw's that are currently available to the public?

If they can have them, I can have them. That's where the conversation needs to go.

And AFAIK, a PDW is a small caliber SBR. So not only are they buying select fire rifles we can't buy, but they are getting them with barrels that cost us an extra $200 "tax"...

I think thats a more fitting term. Its like branding in advertizement. I'm going to start refering to everything they want to ban as a PDW to see if I can get it to stick. Sounds much better to the uninitiated than assault weapon.

How about PMS? Personal Messaging System? It's a system that sends personal messages, like leave me the hell alone.

^^^this. Said it before and I will again, I'm still waiting for someone with some pull to start swinging the so-called 'conversation' in this direction.....

+2....I work in the government and 95% of the people are fucking wundertards!
