Do you own a weapon

[mifki]

rathalos is part of the rebel / guerilla army iirc

[gwprod12]

I'm sure OryHara will correct me if I'm wrong... but it's not having a weapon that's vital to a free society... it's the ability to have a weapon.

 

Joe Schmoe doesn't need an AK-47 to hunt, as the NRA would have you believe. Joe Schmoe needs an AK-47 (or a rocket launcher) so he can fight tanks and soldiers when they're marching down his street to "remove subversive elements"/"round up enemies of the state".

I have a british .303, a remington .22 single shot (really accurate), and some air guns. british .303 = assault rifle, 7 round clip, 3-4 inch long shells. bruises my sholder when I shoot it, and hurts my ears.

 

 

I DO live out in the middle of nowehere, so it's nice to be able to own guns like thos, shoot them, and protect myself if necessary (nobody likes to mess with a .303)

so all u know how to do is reply to posts using images?

 

and dont even pull out the "thank u captain obvious" or the "stfu noob"

[Numberzz]

Now, is knowledge a weapon like I have heard?

[Prawker]

no

[Numberzz]

Is...my iPhone a weapon?

[Prawker]

no..well, i guess, since it has glass...maybe..

[eject]

there is an old carabiner in the attic, my grandfather dig it in the forest here, like everyone, as the NS regime broke down and the americans came to free germany and bring us mcdonalds and coke.

 

it's more a piece of (bad) history than a weapon (but i'm sure it will work, and there ist also at least 65year old ammo, wich i'm not so sure about)

 

i heard such WW2 {censored} is expensiv in the us because there are people collecting this stuff (legaly wich isn't possible here) but how do you sell an illegal weapon?

 

i don't want own a gun and i don't want my neighbors to do so or anyone else. of course we still have gun crime with guns banned but i think it really cuts it down, and once u allowed weapons, there is no way back so i like the status quo here in germany

 

 

but i never go anywhere without a knive (crkt m13 folder) this is a tool, wich can become a weapon, and i hope it never will

[OryHara]

 

Now THATS what I'm talking about Colonel!!!!!!

 

I do have a potato gun that I made when I was a teenager that looks similar. It

has a air compressor hose in the back with a large release valve. Once the air tank

is filled to 240 PSI, it has an internal air chamber that stores the pressure, and upon

pulling the trigger. BOOM. It will launch a potato up to 100 yards! Paintball ain't got {censored}

on a potato gun!

 

It is enough to kill someone if you hit them in the head probably. But it will sure enough

knock someone on their ass, even with padded protection. It takes 8 seconds to fill pressure

in the chamber, enough time for a quick reload.

 

Others include, 9mm Luger, 9mm German Luger WWII (won't fire), .45 Desert Eagle (just bought it) with 4 inch barrel,

30.06 rifle with remington scope, BAR browning auto (bad firing pin) in a glass case, 20 guage pump shotgun... for those

nasty little 'men in black' that appear on my lawn late at night. You know, the ones that the guard dogs don't get first.

 

As for a response to number's question. It could be! You could turn any cell phone into a stun gun. Research it. You need

2 small nails, a good capacitor, and a release trigger. I wouldn't count on the phone working well afterwards though. I made

a 8,000 volt one out of a moto V551.

 

i don't want own a gun and i don't want my neighbors to do so or anyone else. of course we still have gun crime with guns banned but i think it really cuts it down, and once u allowed weapons, there is no way back so i like the status quo here in germany

Then you will never want to live here. Because we only have 1-2 murders a year, and %80 of the population is armed.

You should research the gun ban law in Australia. Once the idiot government there banned everyone's guns crime rose

to higher rates than it has ever been in Australia's history.

Now THATS what I'm talking about Colonel!!!!!!

What crimes?

I think most people would accept higher non violent crimes IF it meant a decrease in violent crimes.

I never owned a firearm and never will but I had one of these locked away in my closet for a few years (property of Confédération Helvétique):

 

 

I received military training as a sniper until I had an injury from a car accident which entitled me to return my equipment.

The regular Fass90 /SG550 without the sniper add-on is still sitting in about 400,000 households, along with other baddies and 70 rounds 'waiting' to be used in combat exactly NEVER.

Thats a beastly sniper rifle. Reminds me of the one in cs... because it is.

Yes, it's also a beastly waste of our tax money...

[cringemaster]

Well, that too. Wasnt thinking straight last night.

[Davejb]

A bag of golf clubs, a bunch of butchering knives in my kitchen, a pair of scisors, a screwdriver, a shattered jewel case.... If the time comes that I need to defend myself in my own home, Ill just find something within reach of me ,preferably a 9 iron, not a 9 mm.

 

How well do you think your gonna do with a golf club when the person that breaks in is armed?

Not very well.

[eject]

Yes, it's also a beastly waste of our tax money...

guess you have enogh  and in relation to the fact that you also run a well equipped airforce.....

 

i always wonder, i have heard in swiss or Confédération Helvétique if you prefer, it is possible to buy nearly all firearms, but no one 

oes.

if thats true, you got an healthier community than i thought

[solaar]

guess you have enogh

You can never have enough for meaningful things like day care, pre-school, nurseries etc. Something that's dearly missed in our small country, believe me... France or scandinavia are way more advanced on that end.

Cut the military budget in half (1-2% of the GDP is too much for neutrality) and there you go...

 

And it's true, it's quite easy to buy firearms here but it's not true that people don't do it. I think CH is (or at least was) second after the US as for the ratio - private firearms/total population. The murder rate looks very different though....

[Superhai]

Here guns are for hunting animals. And alot of people do have guns. As I have been in the military I have fired guns not intended for hunting as well. We still manage to have a police patrolling the streets unarmed.

 

I guess there are some countries who have a policy of stepping on everyones feets and when they step back they scream "we are at war" "help us!!", and obviously there you are afraid of even your own shadow...the consequences are noticable... just stories from yesteday confirms how "necessary" guns are.

Exactly. Most of the cops around here advise old people to buy a specific type of gun if they don't have one. Most of the old widows don't know how to use their deceased husband's guns and the like. Sometimes the cops will come, and show them how to fire them.

 

There was a incident a while back where a drunk man showed up at one of the city official's house with a pistol in the middle of the night. He wanted money, and refused to leave. The city official blew him out the door with a .12 gauge shotgun. The man landed 8 feet away on his back. The sight was a bloody mess. Good thing he had the shotgun to protect his family. The sheriff was 12 miles away. He would have died would he had not had the gun. When the sheriff arrived, he got the family's story, filled out the report, called the corrinor to collect the body, then left. That is a good example of a free country, and properly served Justice.

 

If you wait for the cops, you are as good as dead. People shouldn't count on their government to do everything for them because they are either too lazy, or don't want to do it themselves. Example: War on terror? Please. Like some foreigner will want to mess with my .45. Thats what allows a country to remain free.

 

If I'm at a protest. A cop wants to arrest me for speaking. Not when he sees the 9mm holstered in my belt. He won't even attempt it, much less say a word. It keeps THEM in line as well, and protects you from abuse.

 

Remember Croc Dundee? The guy tried to rob him with that little pea cutter, then he pulls out a real knife, and the guy runs off. Ill never forget that part of the movie.

I'm more into the Melee weapons, like a golf club, a Louieville slugger or my personal fav, a crowbar. Gun are for

The city official couldve just shot him in the leg or something to disarm him, theres no reason to kill him.

 

And in a well locked house, a 5-10 minute wait for the cops with a loaded shotgun is pretty good compared to killing someone who obviously was not in a proper state of mind.

In self defense, if you have to shoot, you shoot to kill, the person who enters your home with a weapon is there to do you harm, he gets no second chances. The state of mind of the person is irrelevant, you have the right to use deadly force if you feel yours or your families life is threatened, you don't have time to give a breathalizer.
