Our country's fetishizing of guns is revolting

[Politruk]

Yes they do.

You can get an F4 phantom, Mach 2 fighter bomber for just under a mil...

They had 2 F-16's on there for 12 and 18 mil. C and D models. Singapore is going to be selling off a bunch of F/A-18's soon, there are several contractor groups excited to be getting those.

Got APC's and Tanks.....

Bro bought and learned to fly a blackhawk....now he's got his own gunship LOL

You already know pretty much all small arms are accessible with enough money.


What can you pockets handle???


You living in denial doesn't make me on some planet where the sky is not blue.

Multi-millionaires can get military-grade armament. Something like the Montana Militia never will. And any millionaire who tries to equip an actual private army will regret it.

Montana is expensive, we got lots of millionaires and even some billionaires.

Some of which got that way as military 'contractors' with all their privately owned gear. It's literally the SOF/mercenary retirement capital of the lower 48...LOL

You continue to demonstrate you're WAY outside your lane on this subject bud.

Mercenaries are nowhere relevant. It is against international law to make use of them, so only rogue states like Gaddafi's Libya ever do. As for SOF . . . less said the better.

Just when I thought you couldn't say anything more ignorant on the topic you continue to surprise LOL

Right, that's why we call them "security contractors"

I wasn't talking about an old magazine LOL

SOF= Special Operations Forces (SEAL's, Rangers, Green Berets, Raiders, PJs)

You continue to show just how little you know about this topic.

I hope you're not talking about contemptible shit like Blackwater.

They're never going to overthrow, or effectively resist, the USG.

And if every private militia club in the United States were to gather in one place and join forces under a unified command, they would not last half an hour in combat against any state's National Guard. The result would be no different if they were reinforced by the entire membership of the NRA and the GOA.

They are but one of many.

Not alone no.

But even if they went at it alone....USG would get hurt bigly bad.

Your posts get dumber and dumber the more you post.

3rd worlders with flip flops and AK's tore NG units, most of which are NOT combat units, a new ass.....vs. being outnumbered bigly by a bunch of spec ops veterans with better gear than they had when they were in the military?? NG would be in a world of shit.

The USG would have to pull out the big guns, and at that point they become the bad guys and lose the war.

Montana is one of the least expensive states to live in.

Of course, if civil war ever does come, it will have more than two sides.

Everyone seems to envision it as government vs. right-wing rebels.

But left-wing rebels would also be a force in play. See Redneck Revolt.

Mmmhmmm but if I'm doing 9mm I like a double stack.

Stackydoo P out of Tejas is where it's at imo........like a buttered up sewing machine.

But the DS isn't a bad budget option either....

Some people like the 2011's but I don't. A few of them have had bad jam sessions and it seems like it's hit or miss on whether you end up with one of those or not. Even the custom shops seem to have this issue.

Which tells me its a design flaw. A 1911 will run all day long if you know how to keep it working. Once upon a time (before that tragic boating accident) I ran 1500 rounds in a day through one of mine without cleaning (talk about nasty afterward, yuck!) and no jams or FTF's. I did spritz it with a shot of aerosol cleaner on occasion when the slide started to slow down but it kept running.

I had to use the ultrasonic cleaner to get it clean afterward. It really was nasty.

Alas, they're all rusting at the bottom of the sea now. Lost and missed greatly on a daily basis.

Never try to fight with a gun in each hand, if that's what you mean.

 

[HisArpy]

Being ambidextrous, I have no issues with doing this.

YOU, on the other hand, probably aren't capable of picking up a gun without shooting yourself with it. Even if the gun is verified unloaded.

Yea if you want to live in a shit hole on the east side of the mountains sure. It's like N. Dakota.

If you want to live in the pretty part of Montana, you're going to pay.

No I mean to live nicely in.

Not that there is anything wrong with that.

But dual wield =/= double stack.

You really don't know shit about guns do you??

Yeah, the idiot who doxxed himself and doesn't know what carbon is says this shit.

To facilitate a militia-based national defense system. Not to facilitate insurrection -- the militia was conceived as an arm of the state, not a countervailing force against it -- that is why the Constitution authorizes the president to command the militia.

Actually the Governors my friend as a counter to Federal power.

That would make the 2A utterly irrelevant, now -- we have already established (in 1865) that states have no right to resist federal power.

No militia, not even any state's NG, will ever be involved in that fight.

 

[TrailerHitch]

Anyone who even knows any military personnel (my father was an officer) knows that no number of them that matters will ever join with an insurrection, or defy orders from the Pentagon.

And if that is true it's a very sad state of affairs. An illegal order is still illegal. Following illegal orders didn't save the Nazis from their illegal acts.

The same institutional culture that prevents American military personnel from defying the Pentagon also prevents the Pentagon from issuing illegal orders.

I didn't say they would.

DOn't need to, the feds are about to mop that problem the fuck up.

What I'm describing is why we never have a military coup here.

No, but illegally our military has interfered in sovereign nations and sponsored coups.
