It feels significantly lighter and more comfortable than my UPO. Only thing is that it's more prone to scratches.

True, but it "heals" itself, or ages more gracefully.

Quoting post #69 since it is perfect.

ahhhh, it's the communists knocking on your door again right? 

 

and yes, they eat their children at christmas.....true....so same same like ones say......

Where do you get this crap?

Who is the they you refer to that said "communists eat their children" ??

In reference to that idiot, and his rambling see my previous comment.

If gun ownership is such a good thing, why not make it compulsary? Let's make it illegal for all persons aged say, 17 and above, to step foot outside their door without carrying a firearm. Good idea?

Comments like this, are the reason there is never a reasonable discussion on these things.

Try it in YOUR country and let me know how it works for you.

 Allowing a constitutional right, any constitutional right, to be taken away, is opening the door for any and all constitutional rights to be taken away. (Effectively what the American Government has been trying to do for the past decade, but that's another kettle of fish...)

In 1996, Australia banned semi-automatics. In the 18 years before, there were 13 mass shootings. Since then, none.  The crazy knife wielding man in china attacked 22 people, but none died.  There is a fairly high correlation between the rate of fire and the number of deaths in these situations.

 

I like guns, I used to hunt in my teenage years, but I would never keep a gun in the house with my child, and I would never consider sending my child to a school where there are armed guards, as some people suggest.  That is absolute madness.

 

Some interesting stats in the following graphic for those who feel more guns are necessary, how many additional guns would be needed to bring down the deaths in the USA?

 

How old is that graphic? It says WEST GERMANY, not Germany.

Having been in both EAST and WEST Germany in the late 80s, I have not seen that referenced since.
