As soon as I sold my .22LR Ruger Mark III Hunter, I bought a sodapop can
and paper target "assault" rifle, a Thompson Center rifle in .22LR. It's
only a semi-auto, but the dealer tossed in a brick of el cheapo ammo.
You sold your Mark III Hunter? Why? That's one of the prettiest and
accurate 22s around? Two weekends ago I put two clips in a round
paper target of about 2.5 inches across at 25 yards.
Did you have problems with it?
Just curious

Nope...it is probably the highest quality shooter at its price point and
twice its price point, perhaps "bettered" in production guns only by the
S&W 41 and a couple of the High Standard models. I liked the pistol
quite a bit, but I wasn't using it enough. Most of my pistol shooting
these days is in IPSC.

The Mark III's are great pistols.

You mean, there's no "reportage" of such a position. It's really
unfortunate Jesus didn't leave behind any writings. All we have is what
other people wrote, and some of those "other people" had their own agendas.

Well, you have free agent, what do you think?

About Jesus? *If* there was such a being, and *if* he were 51% as
described, a very cool dude. Christianity, not so much.

Both "bibles" are full of contradictions, sometimes, I think
deliberately. So, to conclude from the Sermon on the Mount that Jesus
was in favor of nonviolent resistance only would not be the only
possible answer, since in Luke it is also claimed that Jesus urged those
who were swordless to get on. But I believe that reference was to
self-defense only.

One certainly does not need a full-auto assault rifle for self-defense.

OK, if you say so.
