We were talking about the advantages of a 30 clip and agreed, it's just fun... but really not "necessary" for any legal use of the weapon. He thinks you guys are goofy getting all bent out of shape because I asked the obvious question BTW. Either way, it was interesting to talk so someone who had so much experience, and wasn't all defensive... so I could actually get to the point of my questions. |

We are, or at least some of us are, trying to get you to think. You go off on a 30 round magazine or greater than 10. Will not stop a massacre. Someone with a 6 shot, sawed off shotgun would probably kill or wound most in a classroom. The problem is most of these mass killers were known to be mentally unbalanced. But nothing was done, or could be really done to or for them. The laws over the years basically say you can decline to be treated and walk out the door, go to Home Depot, buy a couple hundred pounds of fertilizer and make a bomb that kills a lot at the hospital. Then you get an insane defense and treatment. After the fact help. |

We are, or at least some of us are, trying to get you to think. I just don't get what you are trying to get me to think about. All I asked was why? Never suggested any kind of control, or prohibition. If you wanted me to "think", I think you would have given me an answer to think about instead of acting like caught little kids... You go off on a 30 round magazine or greater than 10. Will not stop a massacre. And I never said that, I just asked "what if?".... Just trying to get you guys to "think"... LOL!

I am the one who suggested in another group that Tim McVeigh probably spent less on diesel and fertilizer than this guys mom spent on the four weapons he brought to the school. I just like to ask questions, sometimes non answers tell me more than answers do... and here I have really learned a lot about gun owners, if not about guns. |

The reality is sawing off the barrel does not change the pattern all that much once you lose the choke. A 10" piece of 3/4" Sch 40 galvanized pipe doesn't pattern that much different than a 26" skeet gun. It is just more ragged around the edges. I figured it spread the pattern a lot. The old Ithaca car gun was supposed to a wide spread shooter. Put the wad with a pin in the middle, and may increase the spread also. |

When you absolutely lose it and decide your best way out is to shoot up a school or movie theater or dirtbike race and then commit suicide by cop, you'll probably want a fully auto, milled receiver AK47 with a 100-round magazine. |
