Unfortunately the recent events in Buffalo and Uvalde have not only robbed people of the ones they love, but have also emboldened the political activism of anti-gun politicians the world over.
In the past, assault weapons bans have been derided as attacking primarily cosmetic features of certain long guns. Now the calls for a renewed gun ban have been expanded to include the functional classification of almost all semi-automatic firearms.
Thankfully, with the recent Supreme Court ruling on guns, we are in a better position to protect our rights.

However, if you want to be in the best possible position to protect yourself, your loved ones, and prepare against the prospect of a nationwide ban, here are some guns you should be thinking about adding to your arsenal.
AR-15
The target of every piece of gun ban legislation is the AR platform and all its derivatives.
If you want to prepare for potential gun bans or legislation that will make certain weapons harder to acquire, then the AR-15 should be one of the guns at the top of your list.
The AR-15 is one of the most popular rifles in America and with good reason. It is highly modular, fires .223 Remington or 5.56 Nato, an intermediate cartridge with manageable recoil, and has a plethora of parts availability.
The rifle is produced by a large number of manufacturers at various price points. Whether you’re looking for a budget rifle or one that will last over 100,000 rounds, the AR can and will fit the bill.
The AR platform’s modularity lends itself to fill a wide variety of roles and should worse come to worse this rifle should be in your armory.
AKM
Another common target for bans here in the United States is the AKM series of rifles, which is the successor to the AK-47.
The Soviet counterpart to the AR-15, the AKM is the most widespread weapon globally, with an estimation of over 100 million in existence.
The AK is a solid and highly dependable rifle that fires the intermediate 7.62×39 caliber round. The round this weapon uses has a bit more kick than other intermediate caliber rounds but is still manageable.
This rifle has become increasingly more expensive and mags are nowhere near as common or cheap as they were previously due to imports to the United States drying up.
Despite this, the AK is extremely durable and worth the expense. Many AK pattern rifles come with a chrome lined barrel leading to an extremely long lived rifle as long as you maintain it regularly.
Steyr AUG
The Steyr AUG is an unusual rifle in its design and high price relative to the other firearms on this list.
However, its unique design makes it worth looking into. The AUG is a bullpup rifle chambered in 5.56 Nato and is an exceptional rifle to use for close quarters combat or home defense.

The bullpup design allows for the rifle to have a full 16 inch barrel while still being compact enough to allow for easy maneuverability in tight areas.
The full length barrel allows the 5.56 round to reach higher velocities and increase overall lethality. While some models require proprietary magazines, there are models and conversion kits designed to take STANAG magazines.
Glocks
The hysteria that accompanied the release of the “plastic gun” that was “invisible to metal detectors” never really died in anti-gun crowds or legislation.
While handgun bans are no longer constitutionally viable in the United States, it doesn’t stop certain states and municipalities from trying.
Glocks are legendary for their reliability and simplicity. They use a variety of common calibers and their magazines, parts, and holsters are cheap and plentiful.

You can field strip the weapon for basic maintenance and cleaning without any specialized tools. The lifetime of the weapon, with regular maintenance, can be in excess of 50,000 rounds. Even if you’re not a fan of “plastic fantastic” guns, a Glock should be in your stable of guns.
CZ Scorpion EVO
The Scorpion EVO is a pistol caliber carbine or subgun chambered in 9mm.
All versions of the weapon come with picatinny rails for top mounted optics and MLOK rails for side mounted attachments.
While subguns have fallen out of favor with law enforcement tactical teams in favor of short barreled rifles, they offer numerous benefits for the civilian user.
The EVO is chambered in a common and relatively cheap round. It has exceptionally manageable recoil and is a small enough weapon that the strength of the user is a nonfactor.
The proprietary magazines it uses are affordable and come in a variety of capacities, ranging from 10-32 rounds. It offers exceptional functionality as a home defense weapon or a personal defense weapon.

Ruger Mini-14
The Mini-14 has been insulated from gun ban in the past, however, anti-gun politicians have wised up in the years post the Federal Assault Weapons Ban and have begun attacking semi-automatic weapons entirely.
The Mini-14 is listed as a potential gun ban target in recently proposed legislation.
If you live in a state that already has restrictive gun laws, it would benefit you to purchase a Mini-14 to fill your need for a semi-automatic rifle.
The Mini-14 is typically chambered in .223 or 5.56 and it utilizes proprietary magazines. The Mini-14 offers all of the benefits of a semi-automatic rifle and it comes with the added benefit of being an unassuming “hunting” rifle if you choose the ranch version.
Benelli M4
The Benelli M4 is one of, if not the highest, quality shotgun on the market.
This 12 gauge semi-automatic shotgun utilizes a short stroke piston design.
The pistons inside the system are self cleaning and function opposite a rotating bolt.
This design simplifies the mechanisms in the gun, allowing for greater durability and longevity to the gun. The system can reportedly handle more than 25,000 rounds with no need for major repairs.
The M4 can handle a variety of different loads, including lower power shells and less than lethal baton or bean bag rounds. There is a minor drawback in using lower power rounds because they don’t cycle the system properly, meaning it will require manual operation.
There is no guarantee that the worst will not come to pass and it would be negligent to deny the possibility of gun bans in the future.
Some hope can be put in the protections the US Supreme Court has laid out, but don’t let that be your only line of defense. It is better to have some of the guns on this list than to need them and not have them.
With the exception of the CZ Scorpion, just how would a ban on these firearms pass the Heller requirements of the Supreme Court?
This article is just filling up column space.
You assume that the Constitution and past Supreme Court decisions matters to the the Leftist overlords.
Nothing matters to them. NY is already defying the most recent decision.
And putting the people of the state of New York in harms way, totally unable to protect themselves! Our once proud police departments, especially the NYPD, sworn to protect and serve the public, has been unmercifully chastised, bitterly stripped legally, and gutted financially so that they are not only denied the courtesy and respect they so well deserve, but the training, equipment, and protections they must have in place to do their job! The political regime in total control of this state, including the elections, is intent on rolling out this madness out all across the country, and it must be stopped! it is a bigger threat to all the this country holds dear than the Russians in the Ukraine. Don’t give up on the State of New York!
And New York will get smacked down by the Supreme Court. If it isn’t, well, maybe that would be just another reason to get the hell out.
Maybe it would be a penalty by the Gun Rights Gods for living there. As many New Yorkers have realized, Florida beckons.
As an upstate New Yorker, I can safely say that ALL of those weapons are effectively ILLEGAL in New York. Lord help us all.
The president can make declarations and force bans just as they have done that circumvent the second amendment. So you best be prepared. This article is mostly bad. It does not take in the area or the person’s abilities which affects which gun is the best for a person. I would suggest the AR-15 and the AK platform but as to that CZ scorpion I would rather have a Glock. But no mention of other guns you probably need such as a long range (308 I prefer), 22 rifle, a good hunting gun(30-30 or 12guage) and a long range small caliber such as a 17HMR.
Dreaded, I suspect it was the intention of the author of this to refer to firearms that are MORE likely to be on the radar of the leftists who want to restrict as much as possible, at least the ones they are going to be going after first.
.308s and .17 and similar are probably farther down the list.
Personally I think we ought to be seeing to it they don’t get to take away ANYTHING from us. In New JerKsey here, they want to stop the sale of .50 caliber, a tool I don’t think has EVER been involved in an illegal act of any sort.
No, we have to stop them, preferably without watering the roots of the tree of liberty. Vote, and get your friends to vote! (unless they are against the Constitution, that is)
Shya: I agree we should vote, but I question whether it will matter. First, I see no indications whatsoever that any of the massive election fraud susceptibility issues are being addressed. Second, I have not seen the republicans in recent years do anything but lip service. When they had absolute power, they allowed the Democrats to sabotage the entire legislative process with childish shenanigans and outright hoaxes. When they committed massive wholesale fraud, the republicans stood down and allowed the “transfer of power” to this illegitimate fraudulent regime that we have in power. These days, they allow the democrats to pass huge omnibus bills with all kinds of detrimental garbage embedded in exchange for two-bit concessions, favors, and pet interest-oriented additional expenditures. The republic is effectively defunct. The GOP deserves to be referred to as “Establishmentonians” from now on..
I agree, the .22 is a great choice when combined with the recommend list above. Add a .22 LR chambered pistol, easy to conceal easy to shoot. Good for small game and limited self defense. A 30.06 is a good big game rifle, and it is off the scope of gun grabbers as are the hunting versions of heavy hitting game calibers.
Ar15’s with 556 and 20inch barrels are good to 800 meters
Come to the state of NY you will find out.. he’ll they just made bear spray in the Adirondacks illegal
Tom: Mama Bear, Daddy Bear and Baby Bear were taking a moonlit stroll in the woods when Baby Bear stilled to look at campers wrapped up on the ground, then said, “Oh! Look Mama and Daddy! Burritos!”
Two bears smelled someone cooking breakfast. They watched a camper frying bacon and one bear said to the other, “Wait till he’s done eating. I like bacon stuff meals.”
niio
Quickly and easy either stack the court or just rewrite the lawa
Megatron…AR-15 with a 20 inch barrel is good to 800 meters with the right twist and the right bullet weight, but…only if the shooter is good to 800 meters.
Training is a you thing…. you do you
Yeah I would deny them the right to vote on raising taxes on my property or anything else because they don’t own anything. Renters do not have the same thing and if you take welfare you forfeit thr right to vote as well
No the one world order would keep allowing your welfare kids to keep voting us into what we are now
Bans can be in effect for years before a case goes to the Supreme Court for a Ruling as to their Constitutionality. Just like the New Governor of New York suggested changes to their Concealed Carry laws by only permitting Black Powder/Flint Lock guns to be carried.
If governess hokum spokum wants to go back to flintlock firearms days, then perhaps we should use that criteria for what gender can vote. I suspect, but am not positive, that women did not have the vote until the mid-20th century. That likely means they weren’t in office either.
Her utter lack of respect for The Supreme Court says a lot about her feelings about our Constitutional rights.
Shaya women were given the vote in 1922 by Repubs. WWI, Wilson suffered an alcoholic related stroke and his wife ran the country. She, a dem, adamantly insisted women were not intelligent enough to vote. Outside of a few few states, Texas and Wyoming, women didn’t have the vote and it was still an uphill battles for them American Indians, and blacks. the funny thing about dems is, they have to ignore the Bible, where all adults could vote. But then, they are the American nazi party. niio
Personally only property owners should get the right to vote. A lot of things would quickly change for the good. Especially if you are getting welfare. Your vote is forfeited, so that might eliminate most of problematic people who free load.
meg: I do not disagree with you on property owners.
Mega-fail, aka: “Charlie Foxtrot” X-spurt, so you would deny my responsible adult children ages 24 and 27, both productive members of society that work for their living, from voting because they are not yet “property owners”? That is definitely an elitist One-World-Order attitude, allowing the likes of Pelosi, Gates, the Clinton’s, Biden’s, and Obama’s the “right to vote” while denying it to true American Patriots based upon what they own? You really need to review the Constitution and learn what it really means.
MOLON LABE!!!
When considering the best firearms to have on hand, consider:
1) Use: defense, hunting, war, etc
2) Cost
3) Availability
4) Ammunition
5) Storage/Accessability
6) Convenience
For use, a 22 is perfect for small game. Cost is low. Many versions are currently available. Ammo is inexpensive, readily available, light, small, and can be used in long and hand guns.
For mid-range and larger “targets,” an AR 15, M 14 or other 5.56 NATO/.223 REM is good to have. Cost is higher than a 22, but still available, as is ammo.
A shotgun is a very versatile weapon. Many versions are out there. You can shoot everything from light game load for birds to buckshot and slugs for large “targets.” If possible, a 3 or 3/5 inch chamber gets you more ammo options. For those with less than marksmanship skills, shot carries are larger area, but range is limited.
For even larger “targets” and greater range, you just can’t beat a 30-06. It is still available, versatile and a decisive weapon. Similar to this is the .308.
For hand guns, revolvers and pistols are easy to carry and therefore handy. Revolvers are simpler, especially for the inexperienced. For a revolver, I recommend a .357 MAG. It will shoot .38, .38 Special, .38 Special +P, and .357 MAG ammo. This makes it very versatile. For a semi-auto pistol, the 9mm is by far the best (though some may argue the .45 AUTO is better). The ammo is readily available and light. Both hand guns great for short range and mobile carry.
Consider intended use, cost, availability, ammunition, storage/accessability, and convenience when choosing. Regardless, any gun with ample ammo is better than none.
Mistype: I meant to say 12 guage on the shotgun and 3 or 3.5 inch chamber on same.
When this country was founded only property owners could vote. Why should someone who owns no property–you know the ones who do NOT pay the taxes on the property have a say in how the taxes are spent? 49% of people in the US pay NO FEDERAL INCOME TAXES but most get some kind of “refund” (aka wealth redistribution) . And they get to vote for the people who will give them even MORE free s***. How is that fair to those of us who don’t suck at the govt teat? Want to be truly fair? Enact the FAIR TAX. That way EVERYONE has skin in the game. From pimps and hookers to Elon Musk types. It’s a CONSUMPTION tax INSTEAD OF a progressive tax where everyone pays through what you buy not what you make. Musk pays the same for a gallon of milk or a Maserati as anyone else. How is it fair that if you make more you pay a higher percentage of what you make than I or you do? What happened to equality? I won’t try to explain the FAIR TAX here so look it up. Unless WE push it it will never happen.
The best gun to have is the one you have now, are familiar with and have trained with. Any firearm of any caliber is better then having no firearm at all!!!
For ruggedness and dependability in the field AK-47.
AR platform a little more accurate but finicky in mud or other environment slime. The US military rejected the AR.
These constitutionally protected rights are challenged on a daily basis. Frivolous lawsuits that should never go forward are allowed simply to prevent either weapons or accessories from manufacture or ownership while the government drags its collective heels in the courts. Illegalities are merely roadblocks to this socialist administration.
democrats (communists and socialists) now in power have no regard for the constitution or civil rights (unless they are shoving wokeness down your throat). I would add to that list as many 80% kits as you can get your hands on and if possible hit flea markets, yard sales etc for as many undocumented firearms as you can get. put them away where no one can find them, they will be worth their weight in gold. and definitely don’t forget ammo, a gun without it is an expensive club of very little use
Republicans are more efficient at passing anti gun laws
Please explain…
Trump passsed bump stock ban
Bush Jr SR Regan trump all supported the AWB
Bush SR backed AWB, Brady bill and import ban and disarmed the military
Regan 86 huges act banned production of machine guns after 86
also banned carrying of firearms in Calif
also backed the brady bill
raven, we have disproved you too many times to do more than smile. Please go back to your planned parenthood and dnc meetings.
Jupu, if you fact check raven, he takes one line and uses that. Overall, he has to be a megtron liberal to constantly attack conservatives. niio
Red …. you disproved what ? the above statements about anti gun republican’s . That would be tough as hell to disprove because they are now what’s considered facts. I know FUDD lifestyles think that voting republican is all you need to do and spend a the entire day watching fox news and rush limbo during the day is the critical side to winning.
I’ll say this slowly again…. You can point out the things one side did without having to “support the other side” I know your stroke must be getting to you and the idea that you can hate both sides of the polital party is mind blowning….. However its straight forward that NEITHER cares about you.
Megatron, my son is 31, newly married and saving towards a house. He’s a physics major college grad and a tutor building a business. He knows the Constitution and while he may not agree with me on everything, he listens to all sides of an issue and is able to be reasoned with in most things. He’s absolutely the kind of person we WANT voting, even if he and his bride haven’t yet dug up the money for a down payment on a home.
On the other hand,he chose NOT to saddle himself OR his parents with a big college debt, and chose one that gave enough scholarship money to allow his parents and his own savings to afford to let him graduate debt free.
I’m happy to have him in the voting booth next to me even if he votes differently than I. And irrespective of home/land ownership.
The most important thing is to make sure your fear makes you buy more guns. And for the record, the LIBERALS currently in charge are way more afraid of communists and socialists than they are of the right wing.
The article is clearly written from the standpoint of “Get these before you can’t”.. Which is fine. Another article could be written on the subject of “These are the guns that may be most beneficial to own based on an individual’s situation and preferences.” I like this article, therefore, I will add to it rather than criticize it.
First, about the AR-15 platform.. Don’t just buy the gun. Buy quality extra parts for it. At a minimum, you should grab a complete extra bolt-carrier group, charging handle, buffer spring, and a complete lower parts kit. Buy at least the mid-range stuff, not the ultra-cheap, or you’ll be in the same boat when that stuff breaks. Magazines are relatively cheap for ARs, so grab at least 10 of those if you can.
Second, about the AK: If you are going to get one, don’t waste your money on an American-made one. Get one that was actually made on a commy weapons fab for military use and then decommissioned, imported, and reassembled by a competent AK outfit.. Most of what Century arms and ALL of what Pioneer (formerly known as IO) sells are “time bombs”.. In other words, if your reasons to acquire an AK are to add diversity to your collection and use it as a conversation piece when your buddies come over, fine buy whatever… If you actually intend to fire more than a few thousand rounds over the life of the weapon, get one that was assembled by people who worked under the iron fist of communism at a fabrication plant that was originally set up and supervised by the soviets.
Lastly, on the Glock family of pistols: The author brought up the old “plastic gun” stigma from the 80s in which case uninformed people speculated that the pistol may be able to defeat some metal detectors. Anyone who’s ever held a Glock knows that the entire upper slide is steel, never mind the fact that the ammunition (which would be inside the magazine)is all made of conventional metals. There are two major reasons that anti-gunners are targeting the Glock platform with renewed veracity in recent times. The first reason is the fact that companies sell “80% receivers” for glocks, and the amount of work necessary to finish these into a functional pistol frame is literally 15 minutes with a dremel tool and a hand drill. The fact that it’s plastic as well as the simplicity of the Glock design makes it really easy to build a “Ghost Gun” in this way. The second reason is the recent insurgence of “Glock Full Auto Switch” devices on the black market. This is a ridiculously simple to install, use, (or even 3D print from scratch) part that goes on the back of the pistol and allows the option of defeating the ability of the sear to engage the stop and prevent continued (full auto) cycling of the action. Inner-city gang-bangers can literally buy these things off the web from unscrupulous Asian manufacturers, pop them on a stolen Glock, and have a fully functional “select fire” weapon. In other words, it can be switched between semi-auto and full-auto with the “flip of a switch”. If any of this sounds like Greek to you, google “Ghost Guns” or “Glock Full Auto Switch” for some background info on the subjects.
Ok, those are my additions and oppinions. I’d like to thank the author for writing this article.
Kenneth m Jones, I agree we have a serious problem with the fact that votes aren’t being properly dealt with, and there’s plenty of evidence, we have quite a few people who are trying to get the world to see and fix it, Christina Bobb for one, Dinesh Desousa for another, with his 2,000 mules(?) movie, and more.
I’m reluctant to push farther than I have on a public forum with suggestions of other options available to us besides trying informing and legislative methods,,,,,,,,,
I agree.
Like most of thinking people I question the validity of voting. However like my pappy said long ago…If you don’t vote you forfeit your right to bitch.
Perhaps voting is a waste of time but it’s my time, my right and I like bitching.?
Odd century arms ak going on a decade now. Shoots 4 moa…., palmetto and bear creek have plenty of affordable options for ar rifles.
Agree. Just want to ad that the AK (not the American made) is a lot tougher in the field than ARs. AKs can get mud and dirty and be dependable. ARs considered more accurate but are more finicky.
First, laws, rules, bureaucratic declarations, policy rulings, enforcement requirements, and all the other real and interpreted-as-law, held-as-law, and other ways governments go about doing whatever they want no matter what any elected government actually states, please refer to what is happening by what it actually attempts at Total Civilian Disarmament.
It has nothing at all to do with any definition of gun control. Using the term gun control makes it about the gun. Not about the people. Those that propose the legislation we are seeing pop up want all of the Civilian Population Disarmed. It is not even about just gun owners. It is also about people that might, at some point, want to have a gun. More importantly, it is about everyone that might disagree with the current tyrannical government. Or the tyrannical government even worse than the current one that could come into being.
Gun or no gun, if a person disagrees with the government, knives, sticks, clubs, water hoses, you name it, and it is a weapon that can be used against them and will come under the Civilian Disarmament legislation.
Those that are doing this know they cannot accomplish their goals if people are armed. With anything effective. What so many people do not realize is that while they think the legislation being proposed applies to ‘the other guy’ it also applies to them. When the time comes. Law-abiding, liberal, supportive of all the ‘right causes’, the first time the legislation is actually applied to them, that they could not ever believe would be possible, is only when they will realize they have been duped, and aided in their own duping.
Always refer to any attempt to add any legislation, no matter how devoutly labeled reasonable, safety, for the children, or anything else as Total Civilian Disarmament and make the best presentation you can that the person that might be supporting it is also one of those that will be subject to the law. They will not be exempt. And it will not matter if they have a firearm of any kind. If they disagree with the government, they will be subject to Total Civilian Disarmament.
Might also mention, if you can slip it in, that any and all unreasonable laws, or what is said to be law, true or not, automatically carries an unadjudicated death penalty under some circumstances.
If a person resists being arrested by agents citing the particular ‘law’, or even suspension of violations of the law, the officers, no matter the righteous or wrongness of the law, have procedural rules they must follow. If they are presenting a warrant, acting on probable cause, or any other ordinarily legal action (they have nothing to do with the given law, only the enforcement of any and all laws) the officer(s) are obligated to take the person into custody. (This is why cooperation at this point is almost always best. They do have the law of enforcing the law, on their side.)
If the person runs, they must be chased, if the person endangers himself/herself, they must be subdued, if they endanger the officer(s), they must be subdued, with whatever degree of force is required to stop, subdue, and control the subject.
If, for any reason, and now that means anything, the officer(s) feel there is a danger of severe injury to anyone of the public or themselves, deadly force can and MUST be used.
And the kicker, of course. If the person is even suspected of having a firearm (now adays), there is an indication he/she has a firearm, or a firearm is presented, brandished, or is attempted to be used, the officers must use whatever force is necessary to prevent it. And when a firearm is involved, I think even most firearms owners will say that the best way to stop a person with a gun is a person with a gun.
It does not matter what the actual legal situation is, once a person is approached by a law enforcement officer and is in the legal processing portion of the situation (for a just law or not), the legalities of the process take precedence.
If a person violates them to the ultimate point, they can and will be killed. Defacto execution without access to due process. It happens all the time now, with other types of laws being administered. And people die with little, if any, explanation of the fact that they were not killed because of the crime they might have or might not have committed, they were killed for endangering (by today’s definitions) people, including themselves and the involved officers.
You throw in a rabid Prosecuting attorney, AG, and all up and down the legal lane, those that want civilians disarmed, and legal street executions will become the norm. And liberals will not be exempt.
And suggest to anyone that is trying to argue that you are all wrong (which is fine as you should not be arguing anyway, just presenting the facts) that the person bring up the subject of jury nullification in surroundings where lawyers, judges, law clerks, politicians sitting or running, news people, and anyone else that tends to lean left. Ask them to let them know how it went. I can almost asure you that they will not be happy with the outcome.
Just my opinion.
You are exactly right sir.
And a dammed good opinion which is spot on.. The gunnhaters are always duped by the left.. bunch of robotic morons.
more would be douped by beliving the nra and right.
Result of sitting on their backsides all day and watching/listening to MSM. Works as well as MK-Ultra.
Right you are, missing today is the effectiveness of the oath taken by federal law enforcement officers and local law enforcement in the unabashed arrests for the sake of following procedures issued by their agencies whatever the reasoning. Look at the methods the FBI is using against former Trump supporters, SWAT teams busting into senior citizens homes, constitutional, yea right.
Want to end this nonsense for awhile, VOTE in November, democrats are running the country into the ground and believe this, they are tracking to add us to the globalist power base, dictate our rights AS THEY SEE THEM, not as the Constitution States THEM.
Well the thin blue is why Waco burned
raven, yes, yout phantasy lover, hillary the genocidal beast…
Never happen. Stock market is booming on firearms. Those people scaring you so you buy more and they drive the stock up.
Never happen, really??
jason, I would say that with crime booming, there might be a small reason why gun sales are up. Another reason is because some states now require teachers and professors to be proficient with small arms. More, Mexicans are walking over the line and snapping up as much as they can buy and smuggling it home. My ex in the Sierras has an arsenal most Texas can only gasp at. But, much of her family’s stuff is ‘borrowed’ from drug lords, after the soldiers wind up feeding buzzards.
Yeah six 10 22 is a huge deal for texas
Stock Market is the god of 99 of those senators, so I think the paranoids on this forum are fine.
Remember folks, according to the Supreme Court in 1981, 1989 and again in 2018 stated that police departments ARE NOT required to protect Jack. They are Law Enforcement agencies. If they protect someone it is because someone else is breaking a law.
It is important to remember this ruling as the Leftists continue to violate our rights.
Yet Republicans have passed along with the nra supported anti gun laws
For me, any gun that goes “bang” and hits my intended target is a gun I want in my weapon package. I prefer my .17 for most uses because I can hit an eye or an ear at 100 yards. And that’s a kill no matter how much breast plate you are wearing are how big the other guys gun is. .
Yeah it’s not passing through armor plates
It’s only illegal if you get caught….
When guns are outlawed, only ourlaws will have guns…
Outlaws.
“The tank, the B-52, the fighter-bomber, the state-controlled police and military are the weapons of dictatorship. The rifle is the weapon democracy. If guns are outlawed, only the government will have guns. Only the police, the secret police, the military. The hired servants of our rulers. Only the government and a few outlaws. I intend to be among the outlaws.” —Edward Abbey, “The Right to Arms”, 1979
I have to wonder if that’s the same Edward Abbey that wrote the Monkey Wrench Gang….?
I liked outlaws better.
I do swear to defend and support the constitution of the United States against all enemies both foreign and domestic. Does this kinda ring a bell?
Article 3 of the United States Constitution prohibits SOCIALISM. Why are they still, not only in our government but in our country? They should not be permitted to eat food harvested by hard working Americans or live in a country where so many men and women have died to protect our freedom.
Yet we live in socialism
Laws add penalties for communists as well yet we have a congress full of self proclaimed commies.
When does our right, our duty kick in?
We get nothing unless we are willing to fight for it and we deserve what we get.
Funny none of you seem ready to fight anything other then first in line at local buffet
Immediately and continuously. Well defined in the Declaration of Independence. Could be time for a review of same?
raven, if you live as long as I have and acquire as many beauty marks (what our women call battle scars) then come back and bust my stones from a safe distance. I’d rather have my girls at my back than you. For that matter, my 80+ years old aunt. Our word for mother is Ekwa Tsisa where the French got the word l’esqua from. For short, etsi, which is our word for mother wolf. When someone calls me an SOB, I thank them for complimenting Mom. And Mom was real proud of her sons and her daughters.
Article 3 definitely does not mention socialism, nor were the founders concerned about socialism when they wrote the constitution. Why are the people who mention the constitution never the ones who have read it?
The July 4th mass shooting today in a suburb of Chicago will add fuel to the fire . Buy the weapons NOW and as much ammo as you can
Nothing to do with justification for new gun laws… just a coincidence ?.
One full ammo can to every two cases of non perishable grub. Happy and full.

If Liberals want to end these mass shootings, why don’t they simply pass a law that mass shootings are strictly prohibited as illegal acts and that will solve the problem. That’s how they solve every other problem. Pass a law and it stops. Brilliant. Oh, and pay every self proclaimed thug with a gun $5k / month to stop killing people. Liberal’s answer to every problem.
Yes, indeed. More laws and tax hikes…the Left’s answer to everything.
How many Leftists does it take to solve a problem?
No one knows because it’s never happened.
Good girl Megatron, you did your homework. This is why I support the DemoCommunist part they’re much better at supporting the Constitution… Yeah Right….
You do understand both sides hate you. Allow yourself to be divided is why we are at this point in history
Yup, two side of the same coin. Both driving for the same goal from different directions.
You do understand sarcasm, right??
raven, so what? only you liberals feed on the dead and the drying, on little kids and the elderly. You have no understanding of politics so always support the nazis. Politics is give and take. It’s a process that in the long run will defeat dictators like your dream-time lover, pelosi. It one small step for man, one large step for mankind.” We are dealing with nazis unfolding in the US. Every bathroom fantasy hitler wanted is happening now. Gun control, gay rights, the earth is man’s only god, forced sterilization of ‘undesirable people’, deaths of anyone on social security, Kristallnacht on steroids, the wealthy taking over, anti-democracy elitist communism. One small give on the part of conservatives, most of who love the nation and what it stands for, means one large step back toward the founding. If I call you a traitor, am I right?
red, I agree, the “Charlie Foxtrot” X-spurt, aka: Megafool the elitist tool, aka: Raven the lying narcissistic hypocrite, definitely has an ignorant and traitorous attitude. Anyone who is foolish enough to follow his “advice” is setting themselves up for failure.
Never forget…The Right wing and the Left wing…belong to the same bird.(Old Native American saying)
Dave, we’re the bird. What we face is rabbit, the left; and Wolf, the Right. Rabbit is insanity, Wolf is God. Like my grandparents taught, choose wisely. niio
And remember folks…In Florida, you dont have to report a lost firearm to Leo. Cant seem to remember where those rifles are? No problem. Its your prerogative if you wanted to report them “missing” from your canoe trip to the Everglades..in which they fell over into the swamp…possibly…you think.
We means WE Megatron. All the chest pounding the tough guys do seem to be nothing more than lip service. Long on talk and short on action. Typically it’s the big talkers that are first to rollover.
WMD, when it comes to Megatron: aka “Charlie Foxtrot” X-spurt, he doesn’t just roll over, he prefers to bend over and then blame everyone but himself for his failures.
I wondered if that was just a name change..?
Congress shall not enact any laws that circumvent, alter, delete or otherwise limit or remove the RIGHTS of the People. To do so is a violation of the Constitution for the United States of America as written and enacted in 1789.
In the event that the Supreme Court fails to uphold the RIGHTS of the People, be prepared to defend the Constitution, the Country, the Title 4 Flag and the Citizens of the Republic of the United States of America again as the Minutemen and Militia of the Colonies did in the Revolutionary War.
As for me, my Oath of Enlistment has no expiration date.
Be Ready!
It’s just paper to them. I wouldn’t doubt they have the constitution printed on toilet paper, seriously.
Megatron Raven the Great X-Spurt.. Has decreed that no one should vote. Therefore I shall vote.
WMD: He does tend to encourage us to that end… 🙂 niio
Hey Megamoron I thought you didn’t believe in voting. Oh wait that was Raven X.
Believe in the idea of voting ? Of course i do believe in that….. Do i think your vote counts in the current elections? Well no they don’t and i think without having that fixed. Voting has become useless. But i mean if you think paying taxes to a gov that is falling apart and still sending billions of your money to a nazi party like Ukraine…. Or sending your OIl reserves to China, While gas is hitting 5 dollars a gallon. Let me know how you are loved by the leadership you claim that voting works.
No its not a few bad apples in the republican party that are the issue…. IT IS THE ENTIRE DAMN SYSTEM IS corrupt and broken. If Trump himself didn’t show you that in the first 2 years he was in. Well then vote harder so that they can do nothing again. ……. Voting will not change anything anymore… .We are beyond asking the king to stop with the taxes…… and if this was a real country with real strong men… (which it isn’t anymore) Your people will roll over to the next election crying…. and watching whatever version of tucker carlson… about Gee… golly how did the elections get stolen this time…. and you better believe it… elites will get arrested and this will be over turned.
Anyways turn in your guns , food preps and everything else. You’re all sad dickless people who do nothing but ramble about the inanity of keeping this system rolling . Its ok to admit you’re a failure at life and should become a windchime. Our founders weep at your sad sacks of failures. Who would rather fight each other over the divisions instead of the head
Megajoke doesn’t think anyone should vote so his comrades can just eliminate elections altogether. Megajoke was seen at the White House this morning trying to be the first to turn in his guns.
Big talking tough guys like the megajoke are always the first to crumble.
meg, then stop being divisive and lying. Yes, you do lie. What does Elohim say of that? You mock Him.
aka: “Charlie Foxtrot” X-spurt, you did manage to get one thing right in your whining, but it applies to yourself, not the false claims you once again make about other you know nothing about. This is what you posted that applies to your own lying whiner-baby attitude:
“sad dickless people who do nothing but ramble”, yup, that’s a good description of the worthless spewing from the X-spurt.
red, the X-spurt is a deviant egotistical deceiver, he’ll never change until confronted in the real world by those who will not allow or put up with his BS Libtard attitude.
Trump provided good policies and economy. McConnell provided bad candidates while refusing to confirm others. The CIA, FBI, INS, DHS, FDA, CDC, etc, was already loaded up with filth by Clinton and the Kenyan. Career crooks.
Just picked up a 22mag 8 shot revolver and it is LOUD, If you do not hit the perp,
the sound just might run him off.

The bottom line is: Never vote for an incombant regardless of which party they CLAIM to be a part of.
I totally agree with dz about denying young people their right to vote. What about our young military men and women who fight for our country and sign up for any of the armed services? They can fight for our country, but because they don’t own property that does not give them the right to vote? I THINK NOT!!!
I have spent some time this morning reading through all post and comments. Some make a lot of since, some, some since, others NO DAMN since at all. What is wrong with this country today can be found is scriptures. Especially what is written by the profits. Some ask, Is America in Scriptures? Well, the profits have answered the question. All you have to do is read and think about what it means.
1. One profit tells of a country almost surrounded by water, that is know world wide for its shipping capabilities.
2. One tells of the Whore of Babylon standing on water.
3. One tells of the house that rules over the kings of the earth.
Some say that Iran is the country it is referring to. Only problem there is. Iran only has a few miles of coastline and the main population is many, many miles from the coast.
So the answer to #1 is: America, it is surrounded by water on 3 sides.
The answer to #2 is: New York Harbor
The answer to #3 is: New York, the U.N.
You see, America was not known at the time of the profits 3000 years ago. But they did prophecy against a nation they called “Mystery Babylon”.
We have taken the Father completely out of the picture. Prayer has been removed from the schools, sporting events, and no longer heard any where except in 1st day services. Scriptures says, ” Do not swear by MY name. Yet if you have to go to court. You have to swear on the bible to tell the truth. America has broken or forgotten all about the Father, and I will use His true name, (Yahweh). This is NOT a title such as lord or god. He has a name just as we do. America has broken every law He has spoken to Moses. America produces 65% of all porn sent out around the world. Our kids are taught islam in school instead of prayer.
Their is no nation that came into existence the time of the earthly flood. That has lasted more than 250 years. Ladies and gentlemen, do you realize that the 4th of July 2026 will be our 250 birthday? Think about it. By that time we may be living back in the stone age because the government has not used any monies to repair our electrical grid. Take out 9 out of over 100 grids, We will be in the dark ages.
So yes, now think about it. Your going to need to be able to protect yourself and your family. I don’t care who you are or where your at. Are you ready for this possible scenario? It will be 10 times as bad for those of you who live in larger cities.
I’ll admit. Our government, no matter who is running this country. Is not worth the toilet paper to try and clean it up. There is only one person you can count on.
Why are any liberals posting anything on this site you have no right go back and figure out how to cheat at voting to stay in power all you are doing is starting a civil war and you will lose as you have every time before. How can you be so blind, brainwashed and ignorant government don’t let your family overspend without consequences go take your easy earned welfare and give it to an illegal he needs your help good thing you have the government to take care of you.
Specificity of language, prepped, you need to clarify what you mean by liberals if you use that word.
Classically, the definition of liberalism was generally the hyper-rational, exchange society based systems way of doing things prior to central-planning’s infective spread which has taken many different names and used them before discarding.
Leftists adopted the names to muddy the water to the point where no one knows what your talking about. Its a crass trick of evil people, intentionally corrupting language for the purpose of deceit.
If you don’t have words to describe such thought that can be shared, you can’t think such thoughts, which is the only way to make people better than they naturally are or create the utopia they all seek /s.
Its absurd with no rational basis and really, people that embrace it are people seeking destruction albeit indirectly, not just for them but for us all.
Mises published works had a lot of key and succinct rational points that thoroughly shows how these type of systems can never work, which is why they lie and go the indoctrination/maoist struggle session/cultural marxist route of deceit.
M3 is much more preferred than the M4
AR rifle, eh?
I’ll just wait until the balloon goes up. There will be plenty on the ground to pick up. In the meanwhile, I’ll keep relying on my little .38, my .22 rifle I’ve been shooting for the last 50+ years, and my very old Remington 870 12ga I received for Christmas back in 1967, and my old 110 Savage that’s harvested truckloads of deer and pigs the last forty years.
I know these weapons very well, and even at my “Old Fart”age, I can still call my shots in almost any situation.
Once again people, it’s not what you are armed with, it’s your knowledge, skills, and ability to make it all work when you need to.
Squirrel away as much ammo as you can!
It’s much easier to legislate away ammo, than it is actual firearms.
You can be assured the new upcoming communist Democrat administration that will come on board in January, will devote their full attention towards ammo more so than firearms.
