Instead of banning the guns..

[SuprSalor]

Why not ban the "bling" that turns an ordinary rifle into an "Assault Rifle"?
Numerous posts have shown that simply replacing the stock parts that many types of semi-auto weapons come with, with the fancy "military look" pieces is what makes an "Assault Rifle". Ban the collapsible stocks, ventilated hand-guards and all the other doo-dads that turn the Mini-14, AR-14, etc, etc.. from that ordinary hunting rifle into the super scary looking "machine gun" that whips the media into such a frenzy. Simply ban the parts. Make it illegal to possess such parts without a permit that is like being able to possess a full-auto weapon. Lots of checks and whatever..
No Guns banned at all this way. Want to own a rifle? No problem. Want that awesome looking military looking thing? Prove your not a nutcase or on any terrorist watch-lists.. Sucks for the manufacturers of these parts.. but.. if thats what it takes then so be it.. Discuss.

You can take my Bedazzler from my cold dead hands.

How it works up here. Cosmetics can get a gun on the restricted list. Nutters and wannabes love the military look. 5 round mags too.

You could also seriously step up training and background checks. An AR requires two separate class to be taken. Probably about 3 months worth of time. FBI needs to step up and do a better job of doing background checks.

In the recent Orlando case it might not have helped as his security guard job gave him licence. A talk with his first ex-wife would have kyboshed his gun ownership here in Canada. Ex-spouse make the list the Mounties 'personally' interview. More than just a few clicks on a computer is needed as a proper background check.

Gun safety trainers themselves trained to spot nutters is a good idea too.

You can own an AR and a 9mm handgun up here. "IF" you are very well trained and can get past a stringent Mountie check. Our lone wolf Parliament shooter had to use a lever action rifle.

THANK YOU!!!!

Now the vajazzler I might be willing to part with for the good of the nation.

I used to think Jennifer Love Hewitt was one of the hottest women alive until she started going on about her damn vajazzler every time she got interviewed. Completely turned me off to her. I know that's weird since a hot woman talking about her hoo-ha should make my ding ding stiff but she just wouldn't shut the fuck up about it.

I'm sorry for the scientific terminology there.

Guns don't kill people. People kill people.
Thus the solution is simple.
Ban people.

In all honestly, I think vajazzling is just too weird. I like pretty, sparkly things but I don't want my bedroom to look like there's a disco ball when the clothes come off.

And yes, I am pretty sure I remember reading all about the "hoo-ha" when it came time for sex education class.

Maybe some people here will volunteer as tribute.

A final solution to American mass shootings. Kill all Americans. No more mass shootings. And all sorts of lebensraum for us Northerners to move into.

I like it!

Don't worry, will give all liberal left leaning Americans 3 months to seek refugee status here first.

There isn't a single problem that wiping out the human race doesn't solve.
Well, at least nothing we would care about afterward. Being dead and all.

We just have to ensure no pets are left to starve to death in locked homes. Zoos too. We should be humane.

Bullets kill people. Ban the bullets or make them so expensive no one can afford them. 10,000% tax per bullet.

Also....

I can make my .45 handgun into an automatic weapon with my cigarette lighter so....

There ya go.

A buddy had a .22long rifle that all you had to do was remove a sheet metal cover and push out a pin to get full auto.

He showed up one day with his face all bandaged up after the gun overheated, jammed and the round exploded.

Semi-autos are not meant for full auto. You need a massive breech block to absorb the heat and cooling to keep temps down.

 

[Killswitch1]

and dont put nato rounds in your ar15.

Bad things happen.

I've said this before. All guns should be bright purple and shaped like veiny dildos. If you need one you need one. If you merely want one to feel cool, get a pair of fucking ray bans.

I think making all guns bright bubblegum pink would serve two purposes. It'd remove the macho allure from Overcompensation Nation (miles, vatass, etc) and would also be the end of rap videos (No way in hell a gangsta gonna wave no big pink thang in front of a camera!)

Did you NOT see my pretty, pink, bedazzled gun above? I think it makes me look wicked fierce.

Now I'm just trying to find a pair of matching shoes.

Oh, well, in that scenario I need a broomstick and some flying monkeys. I think I could easily find some of the latter here....

The Remington .223 and NATO 5.56x45 are interchangeable, are they not?

Same stuff, different unit of measurement.

 

[Killswitch1]

Theyre the same size but the nato round operates with a higher chamber pressure creating more heat yada yada.

The M-16 I used 35 years ago was both semi and full auto

That and the breechblock just closes the breech and has nothing to do with cooling.
