Assault Weapons Ban

[tuan]

what do you guys know and feel about the Assault Weapons Ban? Should I go out and buy an AR today before I can't anymore?

 

[topgunz1]

you should go buy one anyway, because not having one is just plain unamerican :-D

Assault weapons ban...

Bah, Spend all of your money on AR's and AK's and SKS's and everything else inbetween.

 

[Richard in LA]

Or at the very least, buy a stripped lower. But make sure you borrow some parts and assemble it into a functional rifle before the next ban.

 

[tuan]

so I'm guessing I shouldn't worry about it? I was going to go buy one tomorrow cause I was afraid it was going to be a problem.

 

[MonarchC88]

I would buy one... Better now than never. Im just dumping my spare money into as many as I can b/c of the scare of never being able to own one again. It sucks but thats the way is seems its going to be.

 

[Tiz68]

Glad I have mine already. And if anyone ever comes to my house trying to take it from me, they will have to pry it from my cold dead fingers. Either that or find where I buried it.

 

[artabr]

I would buy now while you have the chance.

ART

 

[CEHollier]

Yes you should buy an AR. There is a balance in the Yin-Yang universe grasshopper. To offset the energy of the AR you should also buy an AK. I got the Rock River DEA model and had to buy 2 AK's to offset it's energy. So weigh your options and do what you must.

Its a well known fact that every time someone puts off buying an "assault" rifle God kills a kitten. How can you even sleep at night?

As I read through the thread, I was going to say every time somebody buys an AK God kills a kitten, that's why I'm going to buy 10, and then I read this ^^. Too slow!

I feel that the ban is iminent, I plan on buying an AR this year unfortunatley finances don't permit at this time. It sucks being poor.

 

[bryan0928]

Don't rush into it. Do your research. You have atleast a year or so.

You should own at least 2 ARs and 2 AKs by the '08 elections. 20 mags per weapon at a minimum. Spare parts and tools as well.

I consider myself lucky, I was only 6 or 7 for the first ban. I was given a second chance when it sunsetted. I'm gonna take full advantage and stock up.

We shouldn't admit defeat though. It doesn't even have to happen again.

 

[Nomad.2nd]

Sooner or later... it'll be back.


Act accordingly.

The optimism in this thread is awesome.

To many gun owners have a false sense of security, and an absolute lack of unit cohesion. I figure buy what you can now, ammunition included, because prices aren't dropping. But if you have absolute faith in your elected officials, because they always look out for us, keep putting off till tomorrow, in the meantime I'll be stashing like a cracked out central park squirrel.

Fixed.
