Man strong enough to stab a moose with a knife. Efficient and fast and the food doesn't taste of lead pellets.

Pythagorean said:Neither does a moose shot in the head. They also don't suffer while they're laying in the road, bleeding out after gettin' runned over. Oh wait, the moose, man, the moose.

Edit: Oh wait, you're saying the capacitors will overheat? Hmm, that sounds possible. I didn't think the wire gauge was going to be the issue - which is what my argument above is for.
cronxeh said:I wonder. Since I can't get concealed carry permit in NYC, is it possible to store your gun in a safety deposit, or some kind of a specialized storage unit, somewhere in PA, CT or upstate NY?
Or just say screw it and go to Bennington, Vermont and buy/store everything there?
rolerbe said:Heck, you can't even get a long-gun permit in NYC. Not really. They just sit on the application for years.

Cyrus said:Why would you need a safe deposit box to store a gun? This comment makes no sense.
Cyrus said:The only state that sucks more than New York, is Commiefornia. Maryland is pretty bad too. Libtard politicians there.

rolerbe said:Actually, at least for long guns, Maryland is OK. Just moved from there and they have several really nice shotgun ranges for trap, skeet, sporting clays, etc (a minor passion of mine), and I had no problems at all. Just can't bring my pretty over-under here to NYC, and have to drive out an hour or so into NJ to get to a range, to use a worn, unfamiliar range-loaner. :-(

I have a number of handguns, including 2 pretty potent semi-automatics for home defense. Haven't killed anybody yet. If you live this far out in the woods (at least 20-30 minutes away from police response to a 911 call), you'd better have some means of self-defense.Ken Natton said:Extraordinary.

That is a really dumb comparison. Why don't you pull up deaths from heart problems while you're at it, the statistics are just as meaningful in a discussion about guns.Ignorant_twit said:Look at the deaths for motor vehicles if you really want your mind blown.

Where I live, guns for hunting would be socially acceptable - but I hardly know anyone who does, and owning a gun does make them seem a little "weird". It is like they are into S+M or something.
Allowing people to own guns purely designed for killing people just seems sick. Detached from reality. Who would want to own a people-killer? I mean why?
