Fox News at Gunsmoke

[muddywings]

my wife and I watched that "clip" and wanted to beat our heads against the wall. We were wondering, where the term "clip" came from???

[Kraven251]

M1 uses a clip and some ammo are on stripper clips for easier loading into magazines, and bad writers for TV and Movies.

[Tinelement]

Just glad he said assault rifle and clips or it wouldna been a news story

[blacklabel]

He went full tourettes when he said "clips".

First sentence of the 'expose'

"...guns have literally been going like hot cakes..."

Anyone else sick of these supposed journalists and English majors using words in place of their exact opposites? I think what she meant was figuratively. In fact, how 'bout you just say that they're selling like hot cakes and leave out all additional descriptors if you can't handle the language you're being paid to present to the public.

re: Christmas gifts... The blonde: I'd hit it. The 2nd picture of the dude: nice trigger control.

FYI: The blond was holding a AR15-22

First off, I don't really know much about what a bumpstock is so please feel free to educate me. What I do know is that it sure makes the firearm seem to act like a full-auto. Personally, I think it is completely ridiculous that this is allowed if full autos are not allowed. To me it looks like the same thing and I would hate to find out that some nutcase went on a shooting spree with one of these things and a beta mag. If anything would end 2A, that would probably do it there.

Personally I think they are pretty stupid too. I just think wasting ammo is just dumb. I don't think they will end up ending 2A, but that they will be made a Class 3 items (and the sooner the better). Gunsmoke pushing these things makes us all look like crazy ass gun nuts, just like a lot of stuff on that show. However, just like the issue about the AR15, if someone is going to kill a lot of people they will find a way with or with out these.

[Fmedges]

I think they are pretty dumb as well however since the rifle still needs a pull of the trigger each time it fires, why should it be disallowed? How does one of these items allow someone to kill other people so much easier? Don't fall into the trap of the anti's. why does everybody think that going full auto just makes everything so effortless and so much more dangerous. This type of thinking is just foolish.

you can bump fire an AR without any tools. evil in the hearts of men is the cause of death(in murder)

not ARs, not contraptions for ARs, not magazines, not sights, not tac vests, not tac boots, not tac cars or suvs.
