Why on earth do you need one? I don't understand. You don't need an AK-47 for personal protection or hunting.

you don't own anything you don't need? surely you don't need those brand new red socks hats you bought when you got on the bandwaggon 4 years ago. should we ban those too? i don't need a turkey frier which could kill me and burn down my house. maybe we should ban that as well?

Considering your logic, I guess we should legalize RPGs and fully automatic weapons.

I would draw the line at RPG's but fully automatic weapons would be fine with me as long as they were responsible gun owners. After all there are still plenty of fully automatic weapons in the hands of criminals aren't there? Keeping them away from responsible owners hasn't really solved that problem has it?

Why don't we allow nuclear weapons to be sold on the private market? Might as well start selling biological weapons. We can legalize silencers too, people need those.

Personal responsibility, right?

Really? How about staying on topic with a real discussion.

So, in your infinite wisdom you are going to take my two M-1 Garands my dad used during Korea?

What gives you the power to take away my freedom?

Why can't a collector buy an RPG?

Why can't one buy an automatic weapon?

What is so evil that you guys have utter contempt for weapons?

I don't have a problem with people owning weapons. It's just that when "the right bear arms" was written, it was a completely different time for a completely different purpose. One has to wonder, given all the powerful weapons we have to choose from today, if "the right to bear arms" would still be written into the constitution. I think it's an interesting question.

There is always a need for one, especially with the scary, black, Muslim dictator from Kenya. Right gsvol?

Heck, I might as well go buy a silencer, I've always needed one.

Maybe I can use a 50 cal machine gun to kill a deer.

Most people don't have to hunt for food anymore. They don't live in fear of being attacked. There are other things such as alarm systems and police to protect your house. Those are just a couple of basic examples, but you get the point. What would Thomas Jefferson have done with an RPG? Would Ben Franklin really want to stockpile AK-47's? Who knows, but I doubt it.

So evil to own a silencer................... ooohhhhh.......

People use 50 cal rifles to hunt deer, it is called long distance hunting.

Are you honestly implying the founding fathers would not have owned weapons?

You honestly believe they trusted gov't this much?

Might want to go back and check your history.

Sure, Thomas Jefferson would have owned a flamethrower or RPG. Why wouldn't he?

That's not what I'm saying at all. I'm just saying that the circumstances are completely different now. Like I said, I'm not against you owning a weapon, you have the right to be able to protect yourself if need be. However, can you really justify why someone would "just need" an RPG outside of war?

Again, why would I deny a collector to buy an rpg?

I would love to own a Panzerfaust, it is apart of history.

Why would you deny me this?

:lolabove: Mostly because the thought of you with a Panzerfaust scares the hell out of me.

That is funny, but seriously, I love World War II weaponry and I want to have as much as I can find and afford.

Why can't I pursue my happiness?

You can. As long as you're mentally stable, you lock it up so others can't steal it and use it against you or others and as long as you don't live in my neighborhood. :)

one of my rifles is bigger and more accurate at a longer range. I guess I can't use it for hunting either? I know some animals that will thank you
