gun control is mearly hitting where u aim every time , i just want to say that the day the government try's to take or register my firearms will be the same day i die . i am tired of these liberal nutz thinking that firearms are the prob maybe they should outlaw baseball bats kitchen knives screwdrivers bathtubs cars pickup trucks sidewalks football hockey soccer and just about anything else that anyone can pick up and kill another human being . its not the tool that does the killing its the person behind the tool . all soldiers and marines know this i am worthless without my weapon and my weapon is worthless without me . so from a newyorker who has served his country and from a free man come and get them if you dare .

AK-47 target gun? You gotta be kidding. The AK-47 has some good things going for it, but accuracy is not one of them.

"Get rid of guns"
Get rid of fire and water too. Nobody will be burnt or drown ever again!
See how easy is is to think like a simpleton!?!

How transparent these tactics are.
Guns will never be illegal in The United States of America, however there may be some laws that pass which are by default made null and void by the Constitution.
By the way, to Jim Turner of TX, the day the government pays you thrice what your guns are worth is about 5-15 years before the day they rob you of the money they paid you. Buybacks are a scam.

Considering that the Mexican government only submits firearms stamped as being made in the U.S., the Obamastration's claims are preposterous. Why pay nearly a thousand dollars for a semi-automatic AK copy when one can get a real M-16 for 1/2 the price from a Mexican army deserter, and often the shooter comes with it. Gun ownership in Mexico, while illegal, is really quite common, as anyone who has spent New Years eve in Juarez can attest.

Get rid of guns.

This is just part of the big picture to rid the United States of America of there guns and the 2nd Amendment right.
Then and a "BIG IF", If Americans even let the government take control of the right to bear arms it will be a big cesspool of nothing more than SLAVE for the rich and criminals running amuck.
This is why the U.N was founded in 1945, allegedly as "Mans last hope for Peace". What a scam by our own government.
When the day comes that the U.S.A is rid of guns is the day I become a criminal because I will NEVER give up my guns. They are bought and paid for. Now if you the government wants to give me triple of what I paid for them now thats a little diffrent.

There are four types of gun controllers:
1. Those who are misinformed who think that they're doing the right thing.
2. Those who project their own fears of what they would do with a firearm if they had one.
3. Politicians who use gun-control to scare people into voting a certain way
4. Those who want to impose their desires on others to gain control of them.

Leave me be, I am not infringing on your rights. of CA 7:35PM July 14, 2011

We already report multiple handgun sales. That is included in the Gun Control Act of 1968. It is because of that specificity in GCA 68 that the rifle reporting is not allowed. It is a long standing precedent that what Congress wants regulated is put into a law. If something similar isn't mentioned it is not allowed.
