Staple guns?
Machetes?


Two Mac26Xs ?


One is sufficient. g



So, you admit gun control is a stupid idea. About time.

Scotty




It is a stupid idea and it shouldn't be necessary. But, sometimes less than
optimal solutions that well implemented work.

I think if we actually enforce the laws we have and make the tougher ones
across all states, that would work to reduce gun violence.

I believe we have something like 40,000 dealers in the US. There is no way
that the small number of ATF agents can cover that number.

Halliburton could.

YES !!!!! he could have wiped out the entire school with

Use your head, ozzy.

Jeez, might have been an opportunity for you to use all

that duct tape
you bought after 911 :-)



What duct tape? C'mon ozwald, THINK!

Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. Are you seriously suggesting that nobody
has
bought a *new* gun since 1996, Oz? What I've heard is, the number of guns
sold
post 1996 is now greater than the number handed in.


That is a typical response to stricter controls on certain types of guns,
Pete. Same thing happened here after the so-called 'assault weapon ban' was
enacted. Everyone who ever thought they'd want one scrambled to buy up the
last of them. Or so it seemed. Fact is that the importation of Chinese and
Russian guns flooded the market and ultimately the speculative investors
(who believed they'd make a killing--no pun intended--through buying and
selling them) found themselves stuck with lots of guns and no market. Since
the lapse of the 'ban' the market for paramilitary weapons has all but dried
up.


Sure, human nature WRT expected shortages. I was just making the point that Oz
is telling less than half the story, either from wilful ignorance, stupidity
or a desire to ****-stir you guys over a tragedy, I dunno. None of the above
reasons reflect well on his character IMO. Taken one way, he's just a liar
trotting out a line he *knows* is bull****. Another way, he's using a mass
murder to advance an agenda that simply can't work. Reminds me of the lefties
in Australia who collectively did more damage to our aboriginal population
than pretty much anything else - always with the best of motives & intentions
of course.

As I said, the acid test to any proposal is will it work. If it won't, doesn't
matter how theoretically attractive it is, it's a waste of time & resources.

But you can never teach some people. All you can do is try to stop their
stupidity infecting others.

Almost done. Steel door frames are up, most of the steel skins are on the
doors. Some lights hung, temporary 415V power connected from the house, still
waiting for an excavator to turn up & dig the power trench. Another couple
weeks work after I get back from dry dock. I'll post some pix then.

As I said elsewhere I've just bought another horizontal milling machine.
Really looking fwd to having the Arboga radial arm drill back, I'm tired of
step drilling holes with a cheap POS Chinese drill press. The Arboga can drill
50mm dia holes in a single pass. If you can afford the drill bits.

BT, DT. Cannons if you please. You can make guns on mini-mills & lathes, but
cannons require *real* machinery.
