How many here, are firearms owners?

[mtmedlin]

i dont have the serious hardware that yall have but I do have a 80 year old 30/30, a winchester 12 gauge single, and a 22 rifle. All have been used for hunting and shooting beer cans late at night in a drunken stuper.

I'm in about the same boat.

I only own one firearm, but its not in my posession, its an over under 30/30 20 gauge. I got it when my grandfather passed.


btw I was born in Ishpeming. family in Republic and marquette snow on the ground up there in the nort woods yet?

We have had dustings, but none stuck yet. Snow in the forecast today and tomorrow.
Deer season opens today. I have tracks all over my driveway, several does and a buck.
I wish, , well I wish a lot.

 

[loupeznik]

I have a few. Shouldn't this be in poll form to get an easy count?

Going to Lakeland gun show

I've got my campaign stuff (some anyway) and am going to spread the word this weekend. Putting RP 2nd A flyers that I have laminated on tables in snack bar, along with some other flyers.
I also have some lapel stickers that i'm using. Anyone else done this and how was the response. Any other gun show ideas.


Wish me luck

I'd own some in my home if I could. But:

1. I live in Chicago (check your guns at the gates type city, FOID card state).
2. Wife is not a fan (maybe you can all help me with that in the future).

My father has my 'furniture' in Iowa.

All I want for x-mas is an M1A and a 10fp.

 

[PILMAN]

I've only got 2 guns at the moment, but my collection is building. My father owned many guns but in Illinois they revoked his FOID card and confiscated his guns.

I moved to a "free state"

I own a H&K USP .45 handgun and a Galil clone built on a ORF Galil receiver with Israeli parts kit. My next purchase will probably be a Rockriver AR15 and a FN FAL.

Seems like the enthusiasm for Thompson has fallen off though.

That's because the best thing he had going for him was that he wasn't Rudy, Mitt, or McCain. Now people are figuring out that he might as well be.

Why did they revoke his FOID?

 

[Unspun]

All I own in a .22. If it came down to it my dad has an arsinal of his own, and would just borrow one of his guns.

 

[pcosmar]

Why did they revoke his FOID?

I does not matter.
That is what happens when a Right becomes a privilege, It can be revoked.

I know, but it does matter to me, I live in Illinois as well.

 

[pcosmar]

The bottom line is,
ANY REASON they want.
They can give a reason, real or not.
They can make up a reason. Folks have their Rights removed at the will of the state.

 

[noztnac]

I don't own a gun but it is my right under the second amendment.
