How many times do I need to type "it's illegal" to own a sawed off
shotgun. At least in my state.

Sawed-off? Nothing sawed-off about a shotgun with a federally-legal 18"
barrel.


I don't think he knows that, Max, and he doesn't seem real interested
in learning despite my saying it, so I quit.

Far as I can see, he's bought a new boy toy. Nothing wrong with that
but it's like Bobsprit talking about using an angle grinder to polish
gelcoat, or his famous powered router bits. Just because you can or
might own something doesn't make it a good tool for a particular job.

He's got a rifle that's at least as long as a legal shotgun, fires ammo
with way excessive range and penetration for an urban/suburban
situation, and won't be as effective at sub 50m ranges, let alone sub
10m ranges, as the shotgun. But hey, it has a big magazine, a folding
stock and a flash hider. Probably came in way cool black, too. With a
laser dot sight, no less, just like the military use.

The problem is he has only one gun. You need at least a dozen guns, just to
get started, for covering the basic scenarios. You need at least one gun for
each car, two for every boat over 25 feet, one for every room in the house,
one for each family member and then a working stock of firearms for everyday
use. Of course backups are needed too and don't forget lots and lots of
ammunition.

I sure Ringmaster has proudly taken his first step into excersizing his
First Amendment Rights and, with our prodigious coaching, will flourish and
grow! Happiness is a warm gun!


Amen, brother! Then you need a full machine shop and a reloader's bench
so you can tune your guns and tailor your ammo.
