Yeah? What components, exactly?

The Lower? The FCG? The Upper? The buffer tube? The BCG?

Which components, exactly? Do tell!

What I find telling about the ignorance of the gun-grabbers is that they consider a bayonet mount as one of the "evil features" that defines a so-called assault weapon. An M1 carbine without a bayonet lug would be legal under the terms of their proposed assault weapon law. The same gun with a bayonet lug would be considered an assault weapon, and would be illegal.

What I'm wondering is this: What is it about a bayonet lug that makes a gun with that feature so dangerous? How many people in the entire USA have been bayonetted to death in the past 150 years? I would bet that the answer is NONE. But that doesn't stop the gun-grabbers. They'll use any excuse they can to make life difficult for law-abiding gun owners and to grab as many guns as they can.

Why do you feel the need to "grab as many guns as you can"?

How many guns do you own?
How many guns do/did your parents own?
How many guns do/did your grandparents own?

How many guns I own: 0
How many guns I need: 0
How many guns did my parents handle: as a decorated Vietnam combat veteran, my dad had guns as needed during his service.
How many guns did my parents own: My dad believes that if you want a gun you should join the reserves, serve as active military, or law enforcement, so there were never guns in our home.
how many guns did my grandparents own: 0 (outside of their military service). They all lived in cities or suburbs and had no use for guns.

Because they are elitists who are afraid of the deplorable (veterans, blue collar, minorities) being armed.

No, we are afraid of these legends in their own mind who are trigger happy and afraid of their own shadow. Every rabid gun enthusiast is, at heart, a coward with poor judgment. They shouldn’t be allowed to own guns.

I respect the decisions of others who chose not to have guns. I am simply pointing out that I have the right to own guns as long as I am not violating the rights of others.

I support mandatory background checks, training requirements, and registration. But gun bans based on superficial feature specification is stupid.

The minority comment is hilarious. The NRA and its members, and the GOP would crap their collective pants if African Americans joined en masse and started exercising open carry rights.

Not sure what you find funny. Most African Americans in the US live in localities that ban open carry even with a permit. As an NRA member, I fully support anyone who wishes to open carry so long as it is done after proper training and in a safe and legal manner. Race is not a requirement for gun ownership in the US.

Gat cranks, and other similar features 1) effectively bypass existing laws limiting automatic weapons and 2) have secondary safety concerns due to the work-around nature of their design. Gat cranks and bump stocks are therefore not superficial features. High capacity magazines is somewhere in the middle in my mind. I believe the very design of the semi-auto mechanism is limitation enough and that any further limits on magazine size is superficial until it starts to become a de facto ban on semi-auto weapons. And at that point, the argument is not about magazine size, but rather about semi-auto versus bolt-action rifles.

What makes them a coward? Wanting to protect ones family is the opposite of cowardice.

Perhaps you feel their fears are unfounded, but that doesn't make them a coward.

DP. You don't need to be a "rabid gun enthusiast" in order to want to protect your family. Those two things are not intertwined, at all.

Any comments? Or are you too busy hugging your assault rifles with both hands? Any reason you feel so much more unsafe now than you were before 2004?

[Anonymous]

Liberal gun ownership is still strong. Don’t be fooled by these trolls on here. Or the mysterious disappearance of certain posts.

Why hold a pro-gun rally *on* MLK Day?

Instead of reflecting on his great work and words we will be worried about more gun violence. It’s disrespectful at a minimum. It’s blatant hate & racism at worst.

Disgusting.

Lol is this your first time hearing about lobby day? I know you hate rights, so I guess we can add the right to assembly to your list of evil.

What has changed since 2004?

Not PP.

- None of your business
- Zero because they were born and raised in communist China
- Grandparents on my mom's side had rifles, that were confiscated by the communists after they took power.

The danger of the leftist ideology is that they come pretending to be your best friend.

I'm sorry for the way your family suffered under socialism, but I'm glad you're here now. People like you make the finest Americans, because your understanding of the alternative to the Republic that we enjoy here is still fresh and vivid.

Thank you for being here. I'd trade a million libs for a few thousand of you.

I own more than 200 guns. I'm not sure exactly how many more, but more.

I also own 17 fully automatic machine guns. A few were my father's, a few more were my grandfather's, including one he captured in Korea.
