What gun confiscation is like.

Daryll, thanks for all of your time and effort for putting together this example of what can happen. Here in the states we have not only the liberal politicians against us, but the liberal news media as well. Then of course there is Hollywood.
 
Well you guys need to make sure you keep your guns..... so I can play when I come over..!!

I do get over to NJ on business once in a while, (although NJ seems only slightly better, gun wise, than the UK :p), but a few years ago I did get out to Las Vegas and spend some time, (and a fair amount of money), at one of the gun ranges reacquainting myself with a Glock 21... great fun, and good memories.

That day was my birthday, so I went shooting, and then on to a Carlos Santana gig in one of the casinos.... probably my best birthday ever..!!

I hadn't lost my touch after 15 years of not shooting a pistol.....:D

If you are over here when I am in Florida [Dec] I'll get you w/ my bunch of Class III guys for some full auto range time. We just pay for the ammo. Keep in touch.
 
Hi Scoop, thanks for the info, (although your images and vid don't seem to work).

Yes, a visit to Knobcreek has been on my "bucket list" for years..!!
 
Looks cool Scoop, and lots of fun.

Someone on one of the Uk forums has just posted about the World shooting championships, in WV in Sept..?? that sounds a load of fun too, so i have several posibilities to shoot "proper" stuff.. :D
 
I don't know too much about the NRA champs, but you can get info at https://wsc.nra.org/
There are many possibilities for demos and participation over here. You want to shoot a machine gun out of the door of a flying chopper? I know a guy. [warning: $$$]

Daryll, I told you I'd send a pic of the FL rock-and-roll concert in Myakka City.

This is me on the M1A SOCOM
View attachment 11971


I have a friend who owns a full auto Mac 10 that shoots at that same range scoop.

Here is a video I put together. You can see the berm in the background. And I think SkunkApe was at the table just to the left where you were shooting ;)

 
Thanx, John. I had a iphone video that my cousin took of me shooting, but it was just 12 seconds of BRRRRRRRRRP. Yours was more interesting and had better music. :)

You could fulfill your "Apocalypse Now" fantasies in that.. :D

I did see an episode of the American Guns TV show where they made a rig to shoot out of a chopper. The only thing that bugs me about that program is that every target they shoot blows up!!
That only give the Antis more leverage to show "how powerful" guns are...

Before we lost our pistols, the Snowdrop Campaign made a video, (shown like an advertisement at national cinemas!!) voiced by Sean Connery (hypocrite!!) showing how bad and powerful guns were... in the video they shot a paper target with a .22 rimfire and the target blew up....

As the British sheeple saw similar things in movies, and didn't know the truth, they believed it...

Yup. It was a movie. They use a chemical called Tannerite made from ammonium nitrate and aluminum. It is used to "enhance" the effects. [Bullet holes are hard to see from a moving aircraft.]
 
I have been looking thru a bunch of really old posts and I found a thread that has some Daryll-like experiences with gun confiscation. If you are new to MossbergOwners [or old w/ a bad memory] make sure you read the posts by Malagamarksman and others about losing guns.

This may not happen to us as soon if we VOTE REPUBLICAN to rebuild the Supreme Court for the future preservation of our precious restrictions on the government. [Congress shall make no law...]

Sorry, I didn't know any Republicans were still running for POTUS.
 
I have said before that Trump should have run in the Democrat primary. But the only way I see to deny Hillary her awful influence on the future of gun ownership in this country is to vote Republican in November '16, even if it is Trump.

I'm no expert on these things. Really if anybody has a better approach, let me know... let us all know. This county is turning rancid no matter who wins. I just want to keep my sweet smelling firearms in our fetid destiny, so I'll vote for whoever the Republicans have on the presidential ticket.

If you want to find me in the voting line, I'll be dressed like this:

This county is turning rancid no matter who wins.

And thus our conundrum.

There are no good choices.

There is no obvious or clear choice.

Both choices suck.

It has been becoming a single party system for far too long.

And in my opinion, none are truly worthy to call themselves elected representatives, unless they're looking in the mirror of course because that seems to be the only person they're representing anymore.

I am so sick of politics, I could just cross my eyes and scream.

They all suck.

And as long as they all suck, we're all screwed. Regardless of whether they have an R or D after their name.

turning honest people into criminals everyday......

problem with the plan.....we are Americans, not Englishmen and not Australians.

There are enough of us true Americans left. The slippery kind, the kind that doesn't conform ......the tighter the grip, the more we slip through their fingers.

I have no worries, I plan to live my life the way I want and there are many of us stuffed in the dark corners of this country

Come find us, but don't bring tea

 
There are other ways:
Here is one of the articles from the Longmeadow MA town meeting to be voted on in May, this is in addition to full registration

ARTICLE 31. Citizen Petition
To see if the Town will vote to accept a bylaw for an assault weapon ban that reads, whoever possesses an assault weapon or a large
capacity feeding device shall pay a fine of $300 for each day such assault weapon or large capacity feeding device is possessed within
the Town. The possessor of an assault weapon or a large capacity feeding device shall pay a separate fine for each assault weapon and
each large capacity feeding device.

Here is a follow-up on the Longmeadow proposal. Spoiler: it was rejected at the polls.
