We routinely teach and have competitions out to 1500 yards for the CMP at Camp Perry. And most people who own AR15s are looking to shoot between 25-300 yards.


Made the trip up to Ohio with my daughter several years ago. World class facility and people.

Enjoy your little flea market of death, B****. Because we're going to ban it. (Again!)


How will you ban it? There is no proposed legislation that would ban trade shows.

Seung-Hui Cho, the VA Tech shooter was able to purchase an arsenal. He was a resident alien. He took 32 lives in minutes with guns he bought legally in VA and had delivered to a gun shop in VA.

I think adults who recklessly leave a firearm where a child can obtain it should be charged. Last week there were two incidents in the RVA area where toddlers got guns. One killed a sibling, one killed himself. Also the morons who leave guns in motor vehicles that are then stolen ought to face charges. It is an extremely common way criminals get a hold of guns. Many are just straw purchasers where the gun/car owner claims a theft happened and can then make a claim on insurance while he knows damn well who has his gun.

Failure to accept some common sense laws is going to back fire for those who want to keep some rights. I'm a gun owner and I think there is something wrong with you nuts who think you should have unlimited access to assault weapons. The NRA lost me back in the 1990's when they went to the mat defending cop killer bullets.


+1
Gun ownership comes with responsibilities. If you F up, there should be consequences. But the problem is that our country is full of uneducated rubes who have been brainwashed by the NRA and Fox News for 25+ years.


+2
All of this.


Please expand on "Cop Killer Bullets"? I have never heard that phrase outside of Hollywood. Now possibly you are referring to hollow points? If you are let me know so I can educate you about them, their usage and why "Cop Killer" is a myth. Hollow Points are actually much safer for civilians to use in self defense situations.

Seriously if you want to know I can try to explain why, but I'm guessing I'll just receive some attacks and insults.


Anyone?


Any bullet that can kill a police officer should be outlawed, period. Frankly, and bullet that can kill a human should be banned, but one thing at a time. I'll take what we can get for now.[u]


Ignore this crazy lady please.

Now on to the nitty gritty.

You do realize hollow points are much safer to use in a self defense scenario? The majority of these scenarios occur at distances under 10 feet. Unless the FMJ round is stopped by a tougher bone (Jaw, femur, pelvis, skull). That round has the ability to penetrate the initial target, exit and continue with enough kinetic energy to pass through walls/doors, even another person or two. This is particularly dangerous in high density places such as townhomes and apartments. Even in the suburbs, your neighbors house usually isn't too far away.

HP handgun ammunition does do more damage in tissue. This is because it designed to "dump" the energy into the target as well as "mushroom" which creates a larger wound cavity. There are tradeoffs, but I do believe it is safer for everyone if those who carry handguns (especially in public) use HP ammo. Now if you were worried about defeating soft armor (Mexico/Brazil) FMJ or a specialized round would be the way to go.


+1. Whatever side you're on, this is some serious knowledge dropped


+2 I'm not a gun gal but this makes sense.

You sure you don't want $5 off? You're welcome to come as long as you aren't a criminal or mentally unstable.


Peter Peppers Pickles anyone? Just incredible fudge too.

Since there is no proposal being floated in the GA that would ban hunting, how does the sanctuary thing show that?

The laws proposed are extending background checks to gun shows, allowing localities to ban guns from public property (like a farmers market held on the plaza in front of City Hall) , a purchase limit of one gun per month (to prevent smuggling of guns from Va to other states)

The gun folks are claiming its about taking your hunting rifle away. That's BS, there is no political move in Va to do that even if it were held to be constitutional. Just typical NRA straw man stuff to get people riled up.

Lets focus on reality in this state.

How many people commenting here are even from Virginia, I wonder?


Most of the pro gunners probably are, most of the Anti's are probably residents of DC or New York.


I suspect most of the pro gunners are out of state too, as they don't seem at all focused on what is actually before the GA.

I support most of the suggested new laws (I live in NoVa). But I know banning hunting rifles is not CLOSE to being on the agenda.



Not yet, because a compelling case hasn't been made for that yet. But I'll be speaking to some friends of mine who have friends that were very influential in the last election in several turnover districts, about how similar/identical hunting guns are to sniper guns. I didn't understand this at first, but thanks to this thread, I've done some research of my own today, and I can definitely articulate why we need to work towards banning the sale and possession of guns with telescopic aiming accessories. Hopefully a new bill reflecting this with be filed within the month.


LMAO. You can't even draft a proper assault weapons bill and you think hunting rifles and optics are under threat from your lunacy?

Although he is not a member of the State legislature I'll speak with my representative Mr. Beyer and ask him if he has ever heard of something so ridiculous. Although I think I already no the answer.




I suspect Rep Beyer is as unaware and uninformed about the dangers of your hunting guns* (*=sniper guns) as I was until today. But I'll be working on a briefing paper that will soon be making the rounds, and making others aware of this. And yes, Reps. Beyer, Wexton, and Connolly will all be reading it.

Two questions:
1. At which supermarket did you get the shopping cart that you use to store all your stuff?
2. How many cats do you have?

This thread has proved otherwise. Not even bolt action hunting rifles, I hope you see how your fellow far left has tricked you.

It is VCDL, but screw your condescending tone. Girls? Really? Those "girls" are getting laws passed in many places across the country. And they are some Badass WOMEN, some of them gun owners and military families.

Girls? Pfft.


Cool complain about someone saying "girls". You don't care when your peers wish rape, homicide amongst law abiding gun owners and want to withhold funding for education for lower income youths to further a political agenda.

No. Think about all the poor "snowflakes" as you call them who have been raped or anyone for that matter. Rape and homicide are not things you toss around lightly, you are truly a sick motherf*cker mac.
