That's another aspect of it. I live in the city, a shitty city at that, and there is literally nowhere to go shoot unless I drive two hours to family's house in the country (which I do regularly) but my wife is never gonna be a great marksman nor my daughter. So the next best scenario for me is a lot of lead to throw around.
Also, ammo is scarce everywhere. When I bought my first gun (almost a year ago) I was able to get 10,000 rounds of ammo for very little cost. When I started buying more guns but ammo was scarce I figured stick with what I got.
Bullshit ... It's all about shot placement not the caliber. First things first, nobody likes getting shot, period. One bullet is going to stop a man. Secondly, what good is a hand cannon if my wife and daughter can't use it? The .22LR round is lightweight, has no kick and very easy for my wife and daughter to handle. Load it with some mini-mags if you want more stopping power but the end result is a dead commie no matter what caliber you're using.
My EDC is the Taurus TX22. The KelTec is nice to have if I wake up one night and 66 burglars are in the house but it's a little to big to conceal on a daily basis and illegal to open carry in VA as it hold over 20 rounds.
I reckon ... I've never been much for hearing protection so you're really asking the wrong guy but it cuts the sound in half pretty much.
The bad thing is it doesn't like the stubbiness of the subsonic rounds so every once in a while you have to slap the mag if it fails to feed.
You can't get into a shooting range around here but that doesn't matter anyway because you can't get ammo. I'm clinging tight to my last 10,000 now. It's better to practice loading and maneuvering anyway. Nobody really aims in a fire fight. Just point your nose at the target and line the gun up with it.
I heard other chatter,somewhere on the interweb, that there was actually a fire fight between Army Special Ops and CIA-trained operatives in Frankfurt, Germany over the servers they just recovered. They're saying one CIA Operative was killed (being reported as in Somalia) and 4 or 5 Army Soldiers (being reported as a helicopter crash in Egypt). I'm not sure how it all ties in but they also dropped the "We have the receipts" bomb today.
He's not a random Chinese dude. He's responsible for the Hunter laptop and has confirmed ties to Steve Bannon, the Chinese COVID lady that keeps appearing on Tucker and Rudy Giuliani.
Bannon was arrested on his bosses yacht, one of the richest men in China and also a worldwide known Chinese defector.
He's the same guy that dropped the Hunter Biden laptop like three days before it hit the news. He also appeared in pictures with Giuliani and the Chinese COVID defector that appears on Trump.
That China man is more of a patriot than half the pedes that post on here.
Ugh ... First off, I'm not pushing drugs on anyone. The point I'm making is that all these wars the government and TPTB have enacted upon the population of America do nothing but allow government to get bigger and squash the lower and middle classes. Let's face it, nobody is rushing to arrest Hunter for his crack pipe pics but if that was your child and those same pics were "leaked" online, your child would be in jail. So if they aren't enforcing these laws on themselves but are enforcing them on We, the People then why is it a law? The legislators obviously don't believe in it or they would be appalled. Joe Biden himself would be addressing it if any of them were that concerned. Secondly, opinions are like assholes; everyone has one and nobody wants to hear it. Especially when said opinions have no basis in fact. If you cared as much about they whys and the hows that you proclaimed then you would do some research on the subject an form an EDUCATED opinion. Your opinion on the subject is one of ignorance and not supported by any real-world facts. You are just as bad as the globalist for wanting to cause difficulty in somebody's life because you don't agree with what they do. The bottom line is, it's their body and their life. If they aren't hurting anyone then NO CRIME HAS OCCURED. Saying "drugs lead to crime" is a form of pre-crime and an admittance that drugs are not the problem. The problem is crime that results from drugs (most of which revolves around the drug being illegal). Prosecute actual crime, not crimes that could occur.
Except your "opinion" is not really an opinion. Turns out there is a lot of data that refutes what your opinion is. You should really research the reasons you've cited that are responsible for the opinion you hold because the data does not support your conclusion. I'm an independent constitutionalist that believes in common law and a very tiny government, by the way. I'm not a republican, democrat, liberal or conservative. I'm all about facts, common sense and freedom.
You're propagating myths as facts. What do restrictions on guns do? They keep guns unaffordable and out of the hands of law-abiding citizens. What are the dangers of prostitution? Rapes? Assaults? Disease? All of those can be avoided by typical safeties afforded to anyone in a legal, regulated business. Personally, I think everyone should be issued a handgun at the age of 25 and be required to keep and maintain said firearm. They should be like any other commodity. Let's face it, a steak knife can be just as deadly as a firearm in the right hands but we don't regulate them. How much blackmail and bribery has the illegalization of prostitution (the oldest profession on the planet) caused? That's the part you don't seem to get. These laws you are ranting about actually create more crime. Live and let live. It is none of my business what another human being decides to do with there body, whether that be abused it with drugs or sex, and I can't control what another person can or will do with an inanimate object. It's that simple.
Why are cartels at war over drugs? Because TPTB went to war over drugs. They chose that, not We, the People. If all drugs were legal and sold out something similar to an ABC store most of the crime that revolves around drug use would disappear. This has been proven in the few areas that have adopted this policy. The resources of our military would be freed up to actually protect the coast of America as opposed to being used to combat something that (rather you like it or not) is someone's choice.
By an oil filter and a thread adapter. Once you drill the solvent trap you could get in a lot of trouble and you'll be tempted to keep it. After about 50 rounds the oil filter is useless so just chuck it an keep the adapter.
