Just watched the segment. I've seen worse, but sure as h-e-double hockey sticks have seen better. The woman that was being interviewed hit the nail on the head, "Just because a few whackos choose to use these rifles illegally doesn't mean I should be punished."

And who knew, the pistol grip allows you to shoot from the hip. They must be banned just because of that!

I watched it and the lady AR15 shooter said why should these rifles be banned just because of a few wacko's! She was right on!I love my black rifle!

Krackels · 07-19-2007, 04:59 PM

Yeah, oops... I missed it. Anyone want to give me a rundown.

They showed a woman shooting, they said this, she said that, then they showed Stag arms briefly and the reporter showed how to shoot from the hip, said a few more things and then back to the shooting lady.

That cover it?

Yep that helps.

For network TV, it was the most even-handed report on guns I've ever seen.
That's not saying much, of course.
They are planting the seed (yes, again) that those semi-automatic rifles that you shoot from the hip and have the Evil High Capacity Magazines are out there killing a buttload of people.

Of course, they aren't and you'll never hear them say that, but they are preparing for the all-democratic federal government we'll have in 2009 and they know it.

I can hear them licking their lips right now.
I just purchased 20 30-round mags for my AR15.
