Assault rifles are actually pretty expensive in the US, usually running at least in the tens of thousands.

He owns a semi automatic rifle chambered for .223/5.56, which is a great home defense long gun(that or a shotgun in 12 or 20 gauge take your pic)

>>
>>709462086
Owning assault rifles became cool when they were banned in 1994. Before then, they were just another gun, and kind of an ugly one.

It also helps the way that attachments and accessories have proliferated, letting you do basically anything you want with them.
>>
>>709462404
implying you need these items....ever.

if you are white, and have enough money to blow on an AR, you probably live in a nice, white neighborhood i.e. are safe

You've "used" it?

>>709462345
Most assault rifles cost less than a grand
>>
>>709462086
Because they have money to waste on that shit

and to have a family

Make some money OP, then buy whatever dumb waifu shit you want
>>
>>709462533
You can get an entry level AR for around $500. The most expensive part of any gun is the ammo.

Assuming that is a huge mistake because nice, white neighborhoods usually have people with higher incomes. Where there are higher incomes, there are people with nicer things and where there are people with nicer things, there are outsiders who may want to take those nice things.

>>709462570

At firing ranges, yes all the time. It's been about a month since I last went though.

Owning weapons is not just a safety precaution. It is a hobby that, when undertaken properly, is perfectly safe and enjoyable.

>>709462533
You can get an ar for the same price that you can get a glock, and glocks aren't considered expensive pistols.

ITS ILLEGAL TO BUY ANOTHER PERSON A GUN. REPORTED TO THE ATF.
>>
>>709462688
The media has done its job well huh?
Up until a couple years ago assault rifles were defined as select fire, magazine fed rifles. Select fire meaning safe-semi-full or burst.
What most civilians own are actual categorized as semi auto sporting rifles, although, you can buy real assault rifles. A real m16 is going to cost you about $20,000.

It's like calling a corvette a race car. Yeah it's a lot like one, but to become one, it requires illegal modifications.

Go jerk off with your own tears and cosmoline as lube. Spending any more than 2k on a full auto is idiotic. The largest gun show in the world is in my town twice a year. I only really like to go for the cheap ammo and to laugh at the amount of big 4x4s with no mud anywhere near. If you want a chopper just hit up jamone on the north side, he gets em cheap right outa the crate.

Not true. It's only illegal if that person is not allowed to buy the gun on their own.

Seldom using a small amount of a type of product you own isn't a hobby. Unless you want to put the hundreds and hundreds of hours into building and painting models and making dioramas in the same league as owning 20 guns and shooting about 2 of them every few months for an hour.

I guess being the equivalent of someone who spends hundreds of dollars on steam sales(Minus the sales) and never fucking playing the game but for weapons is kinda need

The machinegun market saya otherwise. 2k wouldnt even touch the cheapest of cheap transferable MG's. A mac 10 is about as cheap as it gets and those run about 4-5k. Something like an AR with a full auto sear in it is around 15-25k.

Then what do you call collecting stamps or baseball cards? Like I said, I agree, I think it's pretty lame, but it's pretty universally accepted as a hobby.

In the process of buying them you're also learning about them, their history, meeting and interacting with people who share your common interest, etc. That's the real draw of a collecting hobby, not just the item themselves.

Except those steam games don't hold or appreciate in value. I have several ARs. I primarily hunt coyote and hog with one. The other 2 were project builds. I have done a value inventory in a few years but I'd estimate I have 30k sitting in that safe with a total investment of maybe 9k.

what I don't understand is the need a semi automatic rifle fills. A medium caliber pistol or a shotgun is more than enough for self defense, and most real hunters use only bolt action hunting rifles. Why own something that does both significantly worse?

A medium caliber pistol or shotgun aren't worth shit at medium range.

There is so much wrong with this i dont even know where to begin. No machine shop is going to make you an auto sear. Manufacturing one without a Class II FFL is 5-10 years in club fed and so is possessing it. You obviously dont know shit about gun laws but i hope for your sake you never try that.

as a guy who makes a good amount of money, owning and shooting guns with your friends is a great way to appreciate your money. especially when the price of ammunition keeps going up, you can pretty much be firing a dollar a round. good times.

Yeah It doesn't directly effect me.

That's my point retards. They change the definition to what ever they see fit. Sometimes it's a pistol grip. Sometimes it's a high capacity magazine. Sometimes it's a detachable magazine.

Milspec only means military specifications. As in they can all use similar parts. Like my Colt AR15 is milspec, but is only semi auto. It isn't the same rifle as say a marines M16A4 which has a three round burst feature that mine does not.

Wrong. Automatic weapons like M16s and AKMs cost thousands of dollars to get, the tax stamps alone are usually in the tens of thousands, then you have to buy the actual automatic rifle for thousands and thousands of dollars. Unless you're rich, you won't be getting one.

That rifle he has is probably 600-800 USD, it's semi auto and not full auto, and not a real M16.

Use is home defense at the very minimum, most are just for recreation I'm sure.

Obviously? Ar-15s are not full automatic rifles. The ARs you see in gunshows and in gunshops are almost always semi auto, and in the rare cases they are not, they are asking for tens of thousands of dollars. THEN you must pay a tax stamp in order to legally buy it from the previous owner, which is again tens of thousands of dollars. In some states you cannot even own NFA weapons like that.

Do you have any idea how many jobs the firearms industry holds up? I'll go ahead and let you know, it's more than ten. Firearms in America, and the industry it creates are significant and important. It's not going away, and a lot of people don't want it to go away. In fact, one of the rights that help create the foundation of this country, was put there to make sure that it could never be limited(although it is very much) or taken away. So really someone could say the same about your precious computer and steam games, that you are using too many resources for shit that you aren't going to use, that gaming industry has convinced you that you need, that everyone for some stupid reason, is pissed off that you have.

Luckily they didn't have a gun because i chased and tackled the faggot who snatched her shit and got it back. Even luckier i didn't have a gun, would have left his worthless fucking ass laid out on the ground to die while i went home for some sleep.

I guess what i am trying to say is, GUNS make it safer you degenerate.

Nobody is falling for your facade, we know you don't like guns because evidence has shown you dislike guns, or at least gun owners in this case.

Stop saying you're pro gun.

Whats the difference in this again? They aren't going after guns by going after "assault weapons"? Isn't that a contradiction?

Statistics are showing gun ownership is on the rise. More legit organizations say so than the washingtonpost, which is a site that's has a bias against gun owners.

it's like reading about why global warming doesn't exist on a creationist website. Just because someone did a "poll" doesn't make it correct, since more sources show that gun ownership is on the rise, I am inclined to agree with those sources over yours since they are not reliable.

Legally? Yes.
Do you know the difference between an AR-15 lower and an M-16 lower? ONE drilled hole.
Do you know how many parts you have to change? Change 3 add 1.
15 minutes to drill the hole
20 minutes to swap the parts.
The upper doesn't need to be touched.

Not hard to do.

I'd like to think they've risen, but if they have it's not being reported.
People are not volunteering that type of information on surveys anymore thanks to government agendas.
So, while you can use biased sources, and I can use biased sources, I don't think the real numbers will ever be known.
I'm pro gun btw. I'd be considered a "super owner" according to a poll conducted about 3% of the gun owners own half of the guns in the US (I think it's bullshit but it's funny, all the same).

I does kinda irk me that people pretend they intended people to arms themselves as individuals and ignore the entire part about militias.
If we are going to play the part of the constitutional literalist then shouldn't we be offering up ourselves to local or state militias?
We have the right to own a gun but we ignore the same part on the page that suggests me might have a responsibility along with it.

I actually really like the status quo interpretation of it, We just get the rights to own guns and that's that.
But its just pure dishonesty to me when someone quotes that section as to why we should when they just gloss over that important bit.

What exactly have you seen the gun industry say to convince me to buy more guns.

I promise you that liberal media, more so the tv show that it produces sells way more guns than the gun industries propaganda. The only thing the gun industry produces in prpoganda that convinces people to buy different stuff is advancement in mechanical efficiency and interface user customization. If you knew anything about how the shit worked you would understand.

And for the people who collect different types of guns. They do it because they find all that shit interesting. It's mechanical history that they can put their hands on and understand and feel. When someone goes out and buys a ww2 garand to buy it for the historical value for themselves, it's just that. Can you literally not understand any of this shit?

My county has about 100,000 residents. Last year there were probably 10 home invasions.

And in the last 10 years maybe 3 fatal home invasions.

Fucking stats man. Not on your side.

You know what you are right. There is a very small chance that one day, possibly, you will be home and someone will try to enter your home with the intent to steal and/or hurt people, and you will be ready and have a firearm for defense. And you will be glad you have a gun. So yeah be sure to buy a gun.

The majority of the US Military are gun owners, and very pro gun, additionally you would be hard press to find a soldier or marine willing to shoot their friends or family for a government they don't even like in the first place, especially after 10+ years of failed occupations, they won't do it. If you think so, you're crazy.

Because they are fun to shoot and to hunt with. They are accurate also. People that don't go shooting or hunting or have never used or owned a gun will never understand.

Pew is reporting that more americans (That particular time btw, a new poll shows they are against more gun control) were in favor of an assault weapons ban in that same statistics that showed 44% of americans own guns.

I'll say this, 44% is likely a very low ball percent of the actual number since some gun owners do not say they own guns or how many.

What you MEAN to say is that they are not super accurate, which is true, however, I would say that since other more reliable sources than yours have coinceded with this statement, as well as the FBI reporting more background checks for guns we can conclude Pew's number is closer to the truth than CBS.

Finally, the reason why CBS is bias is because they are known to be anti gun, the mere fact that article refers to the Orlando Terrorist Attack as a Mass shooting should indicate to you they are trying to poison the well here.

If our sources were boxers yours would be a feather weight, mine would be a heavy weight.

If the government asked the local law enforcement agencies to go collect the guns because they are now illegal. It would not be enforced.

Quoting documentation on our rights by the founders of this country is a relevant and valid defense because what they are inferring is that since we have the right to own guns, that it is justified to own them, especially if you've actually read up on american history and understand the 2nd amendment beyond just the text.

They are spending money directly into our shitty economy, all American money. Money that starts here and products that start here, only truly supporting American economy and interest. Why do you care what their reasoning is behind it? Do you think those are the people that commit mass murder. They spend all their shitty earned money straight into this system, instead of shipping their money out of country,they are actually keeping that money here and supporting the economy and fellow citizens and possibly friends. Why do you care the reasoning behind their purchases. And please don't give that rampant consumerism bullshit answer, seriously, nobody gives a fuck, that's how the economy works. It's how you keep your shitty job, if you even have one.
