Having a military background does not necessarily qualify as part of the definition, and I'm pretty sure that any bolt action weapon would be excluded.

Gas operation and caliber do not (by themselves) rise to the full definiton. Depending on what "looks" you refer to... this could be at least part of the definition.

They might... but, google is my friend.

Splitting hairs are we? I don't know though.... didn't "Gatling" make other firearms besides what we know as the "Gatling gun?"

I would have picked the AR-15 as an "assault weapon," but I'm informed enough to know that (without the conversion kit, at least,) it wouldn't be the machine gun. As for the Mini-14? Depends on which model you chose to picture. The original/basic model wouldn't qualify as either... though the Mini-14 T/R probably would qualify as an assault weapon, and the AC-556 model "might" (also) qualify as the machine gun (though not by the standard definition of one.)

How'd I do?

 

Guns aren't a big issue with me one way or the other. Aren't there more guns than people in the US now? They could stop selling guns tomorrow and 1000 years from now guns would still be in the news.

My BS meter pops when I hear contards talk about guns though. Do they realize that the 2nd amendment was written when we still had the British to contend with and convincing them we weren't going to be an pushovers made good sense? There were also threats from Indians and the Spanish. And of course a great many people had to shoot their dinner.

Now I suppose we need to worry about Canada attacking. Or alien abductors. Yup, I'm sure a species that's mastered traveling at many times the speed of light would be defenseless against a gun. And then there's the meat problem. You might have to leave Krogers meat isle empty handed if you don't have a six gun strapped to your side. hahahahaha

 

Shhh.... don't tell repete!

But, you would concede there are pictures of "assault rifles" though, right?

Let's play a game, and see how long we can keep this thread from being moved to the Politics forum.

 

Too late (maybe.)

 

Yeah heaven forbid we should have a little fun.

Yeah, I blew it - complete with the c-word. Libtard is ok but I'm sure contard crosses the line.

 

Actually, I think DaveP brought up the first political connotation... but, I'm willing to let YOU hang for it!

BTW... in your first post, were you insinuating that I am too stoopid to know anything about guns? Them's "fightin' words" pardner! I guess we'll have to settle this like MEN! I sure hope you're packin'!

 

I can appreciate a good slur!

You guys are going to have to fill in for me, though. I'm being rationed. It's all Obamaloney too.

I'm ready for photos of hawt wimmin with guns.

 

Yeah go ahead and drag Dave into this. His posts are usually intelligent and well thought out and he's clearly lost and on the wrong forum.

As for you, you left an O out of stooopid! And as for me and the fact that I'm packing

I'll have to get back to you degenerates a little later. My one and only friend showed up to ruin my day, make me drink some beer, and watch golf!

 

Can't you just have a chat with the neighbors? Either they keep him in their own yard or you'll call the pound...?!
