No, it won't. That's the pipedream of a toddler who thinks pulling a blanket over his head protects him from monsters. When the 10 round capacity limit was the law of the land 1994-2004 it was a felony to be in possession of full capacity mags marked "LE/Military Only"... and criminals were regularly arrested with them, even though full capacity mags were grandfathered and still available for retail sale! Committing murder was a crime, a felon in possession of a gun was a crime, and owning full capacity mags was a crime.... yet oddly enough the criminals didn't have a problem committing those crimes! We could ban the very possession of full capacity mags on the part of anyone and everyone other than law enforcement or military and the criminals would still get them without being inconvenienced in the least... as has been clearly demonstrated already. All capacity bans do is hamstring law-abiding citizens and have no place in a free society.
It's only "compulsive hoarding" if you don't use them. I've taken training classes where being able to have a large number of mags loaded up and ready to go meant more time training and far less time loading mags.
I own 6 magazines. someone owing 100 magazines, is kinda scary. what's the purpose? preparing for what? a war? a massacre? inquiring minds want to know, Im sure the FBI included.
Not that it's any of your business why I would own a perfectly legal product, but for someone like me having a large number of magazines is a convenience when I take training classes or shoot competition. Magazines also wear out over time, so it's nice to have backups that can replace older mags that have reached the end of their useful service life. Yes, I have several ammo cans full of mags for my carbine.
There is no rational reason to possess one hundred 30 round magazines. the only reason for doing such is to prepare for war or a massacre. either which should bring FBI attention
With 10 round magazines. Over thirty homicide victims. Is that the acceptable number of dead in a mass shooting after "assault weapons" and "high capacity magazines" are banned and confiscated? Those bans certainly do nothing to prevent another VT.
You sure do think your opinion on what is rational matters to the FBI. Call the FBI and see if they think anyone, especially a family of competitive shooters, is a risk for having 100 magazines. They didn't even consider Cruz a risk.
Mental health data that indicates that someone had been adjudicated mentally incompetent or has been involuntarily committed to a mental health facility. Merely seeing a mental health professional is not a disqualifier. What are fingerprints supposed to do? Scare a mass shooter?
suffering from severe depression, anxiety, schizophrenia should be an automatic disqualifier unless your doc says its ok to possess a gun
You should take that to Congress. And to the ACLU. And the to the American Psychiatric Association. What other dangerous objects should these people be prohibited to access?
I have stated the rational reasons. That you don't accept them illustrates your own neuroses and irrationality regarding this issue.
Man, you don't know how to live! I love spicy food; hotter the better! One of my favorite things is Carolina Reaper peppers in a stew; really brings out the flavor!!
I can see a “quick” on an AR15 or AR10 and 30 rd mags if I had put it off to do and then found out that friends were taking a week to go prairie dogging and I really wanted to go, and I would need a couple thousand rounds too.....
I guess if you were more familiar with the rural areas of the US. (Montana, Wyoming, Colorado and such) 100 - 30 rd mags aren’t that many especially if your going prairie doggin’. You don’t want to waste your shooting time loading mags..... Your not familiar with recreational pest control?
I have lots and lots of firearms spanning 250 years of design and essentially many of each major design evolution from flintlock to day-night scopes, and quite a bit of military as well including modern. However, now my focus is on historic and antique firearms. Those are just as deadly now as they were then, though more terrifying in the past due to poor medical technology. My firearms are no secret, but I can not recall buying any firearm at a gun shop for some years now. Nearly all have been private sales as that is what I prefer. I hand the seller cash, he hands me the firearm, ammo or whatever. The last Browning 1919 I bought, with 10 boxes of belted ammo, tripod, loading ramp, flash supressor and Gatlin gun crank was handing him the hundred dollar bills and loading it up in my trunk. I've gone from a gun show to the dealer's home for private sales more than once. Wounds used to be far more feared. For example, a gut shot was always lethal and considered a particularly cruel way to kill someone - since they would certainly die - but it would take days or weeks to do so. In Navy records, anyone who had a gut wound was considered 100% lethal and the only treatment to make to person comfortable as possible. Weather allowing, the person would be put on the deck to limit how much his slow death disturbed the others. Native Americans referred to guns and weapons that kill slowing - due to infection and sepsis.Of the 3 day waiting period, can you show anyone who was ever a victim because of it - to post the opposite of your claim by using your logic. The POWER of the MSM is astonishing to me. People overwhelming are PURE submissive sheep to it. That is at the CORE - the total control of the corporate MSM over people's thoughts - of this debate. There are over 750,000 violent assaults, including rape and murder, in public K-12 schools every year. I am the ONLY person I've seen post ANY concern for this on the forum. WHY? Last year there were 17,250 murders in the USA. BUT you ONLY care about mass shootings and literally go so far as to claim that unless the gun topic has to do with mass shootings then it is totally irrelevant. WHY? BECAUSE THE MSM TOTALLY CONTROLS NEARLY EVERYONE. You MUST think what they tell you to think. You MUST NOT think of anything they don't tell you to think. The MSM told you that you MUST focus now on mass shootings as THE issue about guns and schools - and that there is NO other issues about students safety or murderous gun deaths you are allowed to think. You dutifully, submissively think - and don't think - exactly as you are told in your messages. The MSM has declared the AR15 as the most deadly firearm every made - and most people believe that too, although there is nothing special about it over any other rifle that uses the .223/5.56 with a removable magazine. So, maybe before your next message you should quick watch CNN, FOX or MSNBC - whichever are your masters - for your next words and thoughts you may and may not have and post just to make certain you are following their commands for today correctly.
