She's obviously not an expert... she didn't mention "the shoulder thing that goes up" or "high capacity magazine clips". "rlol"

The end game is banning and confiscating all center fire semi-auto rifles as "weapons of war". This leaves you with bolt or lever action, maximum 5 rds, and tube fed .22 rimfire. That's all you need per the "sporting purposes" clause of the 2nd amendment. :rules:
4/13/1996 Completed CHL Class, 4/16/1996 Fingerprints, Affidavits, and Application Mailed, 10/4/1996 Received CHL, renewed 1998, 2002, 2006, 2011, 2016...). "ATF... Uhhh...heh...heh....Alcohol, tobacco, and GUNS!! Cool!!!!"

Correct. But wait. Didn't Lee Harvey Oswald use an assault rifle? Or was it a bolt action with a scope? I am so confused.

Well, it wasn't a double shot weapon, so it's possible that it didn't have the proper adapter on it to actually be an assault weapon. Also, did the scope come from Piggly Wiggly? :biggrinjester:

Oh absolutely! Without a scope, it's just a sporting or target practice gun. :biggrinjester:

Well, my AR has been used to kill 17 hogs in the past month. That's definitely a MSR purpose. And since I have a red dot no magnification sight, I guess that's not a "scope." "rlol"

I'd bet money she's a liberal. She claims to be an expert, but knows nothing about firearms.

The editing is a little painful, but that is hilarious! "rlol" And what a great thing for reloaders if casings are never ejected from the gun. Wow.
