"Givenup, I have never heard of a gun killing or shooting anyone on it's own accord, without a person pulling the trigger. And as for the UK, not having guns, I have several relatives in Scotland that have Shotguns they use for sport. Don't worry about never having shot a gun before, I had to wait til I was a little more mature, at around age 10 before I got to shoot my first gun. Don't worry you will grow big and strong soon enough and soon be man enough to go shooting."
I'm pretty sure that gun crime figures are way higher in the US than they are here in the UK. Guns...even shotguns for hunting sport became kinda taboo in UK following the Dunblane incident. Nowadays with additional media saturation of the US guns and 'bling' hip hop scene, it seems that more inner city kids have access to guns and slowly these street gang gun deaths are rising. However, I live in Norfolk, a prominent farming community county in the UK and although we have Royal shoots just up the road in Sandringham and the surrounding areas on a regular basis, I can honestly say that I have never seen or even held a fully functioning firearm and I don't really intend to. Rolexes and guns to me are only linked when I worry about somebody pointing one at me and requesting that I hand over my watch. Don't get me wrong, I'm not anti firearm. I am just pro-responsibility. I'm just for stricter controls, Guns don't kill people nor do knives or antique swords etc, In the wrong hands, a piece of lead pipe can be a dangerous weapon! |

I'm going to be uncharacteristically nice and ask politely that pro- and anti-gun posts be kept off this thread. Thank you.

Japanese schoolgirls with guns - this is a porn fantasy gone seriously wrong!
Why's the selector on the right side of the lower receiver, though?

Looks like it may have started out life as a Rock River Arms rifle. Sir, you'd love an ambi selector! Man, what would Sun Tzu say about that one?
My Sub started running waaaay fast about a week after going to the range last time, but has settled down now to + 1 or 2 sec/day. Anyone else have a similar experience? They may not even be related events...

Never discharge your firearm in Walmart, I don't care how many times the guy asks for the time. They will throw you out and you'll end up shopping at high end stores!
