Good post, wrong section but good post. Buy a rifle and learn how to use it!
This is right out of the constitution itself
I applaud this post Please do not move this post
This is right out of the constitution itself
If we are to remain a free nation it is important for us to understand the true purpose of the 2nd ammendment.
No, its not about the right to hunt or the right to target shoot. Nor is it just about your personal defense. It clearly states that "being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."
It is your duty as an able bodied American citizen to keep and bear arms to protect this nation from internal fascism and external threats.
What a concept, the militia is in fact you and me. It is every responsible and able minded citizen adult in this nation. We are an army of 150 million+
Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. If any politician tries to disarm the American populace under the guise of security remember what these gentlemen had to say.
And now we get to the good part. The reason I made this thread is to encourage all Ron Paul supporters, if you haven't already, purchase and maintain a military grade rifle.

These are my two favorite choices. I own both of these love them equally. But there are many many other good rifles out there. If your interested I encourage you first educate yourself online and then go to a gun show in your area and browse whats available.

That depends on who is using it.

18 is the age limit for owning a semi-automatic rifle like those pictured above.
I'm pretty sure 18 is the limit for owning an automatic also but I would look up your states requirements first. You will have to purchase a tax stamp and go through the background checks.
For all you youngins, I would suggest taking a fire-arms safety course if you are new to shooting. Remember these are not toys.

And if you have small children or irresponsible people are around, always purchase a gun safe.

The AR 15 is probably that best all around. It is a small caliber, but still a great gun for deer. I killed a doe at 300 m w/ iron sights. The carbine is a 600 meter gun while the rifle is an 800 meter gun. Also you can buy ammunition for around $6.00 per 20 right now. This is a GREAT gun to buy and fun to shoot. I recommend the carbine model personally and there is no end to accessories that you can buy for them. Everyone SHOULD save up and buy one before some tyrant comes along and bans them. . . again.

I know this is controversial but I like the idea of a RP Militia. (With a plan btw)
If anything breaks out i'll bring reinforcements from Australia.
But seriously, get a military grade rifle and learn how to use it.

anybody ever heard of bump-firing?
#1 There's a very big difference between ownership and purchase
#2 Class III firearms (automatic) are expensive and involve jumping through a few extra Federal hoops. If you're really interested google class III ownership.
#3 State laws vary, don't ever take firearm leagl-advice from anyone but the Federal and State law. Contact the BATFE in writing if you have any questions or concerns.

people can still own guns?
Had no idea, being in California and all.
Had no idea, being in California and all.
A long time ago I saw a video where a guy made little 22 full auto. It looked so cool and like such a blast. I wish I could find it again. If it wasn't illegal I would love to make one. It is so bizarre that it is illegal to do this or even to distill your own liquor - what a bizarre excuse for a free country. or even worse it's illegal to grow and smoke a particular plant. One fundamental tenant of any free society is that you own yourself. Clearly, in the view of most, we don't even own ourselves. If the government can tell you what you can ingest and put you in jail for ingesting it - you are not by any measure free.
