Is the present policy of the ATF nothing more than a foreshadowing of things to come, a massive preparation for the time when gun-control freaks take over the government and unleash their ire on that part of the electorate that fights for Second Amendment rights?
Hammacher has the ultimate Marshmallow Blaster gun capable of shooting marshmallows 50 feet wide. The pneumatic gun features easy-to-refill bolt action for fast nonstop shooting. The gun has a cool design with silver body and red and black finishing.Thing is, it's illegal in California, and probably elsewhere. In order to be compliant with state law, "[t]he entire surface must be colored or transparent or translucent."
Any person who, for commercial purposes, purchases,sells, manufactures, ships, transports, distributes, or receives, by mail order or in any other manner, an imitation firearm except as authorized by this section shall be liable for a civil fine in an action brought by the city attorney or the district attorney of not more than ten thousand dollars ($10,000) for each violation.
The Marine Conservation Board is reminding the public that there is only one week left to hand in illegally imported spear guns and spear gun parts, which are included under the ‘Prohibited Items’ list of the Customs law.
The gun exchange, as in the past, will be "no questions asked"... no contributor will be asked for identification or anything about the origin or use of the weapon...No questions will be asked. All weapons will be destroyed.
The draft shows the multiplicity of corrections, additions and deletions that were made at each step. Although most of the alterations are in Jefferson's handwriting (Jefferson later indicated which changes he believed were made by Adams and Franklin), he felt slighted by the way Congress rewrote the manuscript. In a consoling letter of July 21, 1776, the state's senior delegate, Richard Henry Lee, wrote to Jefferson that he wished that "the manuscript had not been mangled as it is."
Cherry Valley Police Chief Gary Maitland disagrees with the judge's ruling.
"This is not the Old West," he said. "I'm not advocating banning handguns. But I'm not aware of any police officer who would advocate more handguns on the street. When they start taking their weapons out of their home and walking around with them strapped to their hip, bad things can happen."
These are intended to be model, not mandatory...They are not intended to be treated as the only method of properly instructing a jury.Yet this, in the eyes of those who would rule us, is enough to override centuries of legal precedent and tradition, and the clear intent and understanding of those who established our system of justice.
"I'd like to be able to say I'm shocked, but actually, we are a magnet for this kind of activity," Abraham said.
"They came to Philadelphia to sell because it's the perfect place to dump guns. It's infuriating."
The stun gun will pack a lesser jolt than the 50,000 volts of the law enforcement model, though the company won't say what the power level is. It has a range of 15 feet, half the distance of some professional units.
Certain Drums in, and near Cambridge, very improperly beat the Revellie this morning before day; Although the Troops are ordered to be under Arms, half an hour before day light, it does not follow the drums are to beat at that time. The Reveille is to beat when a Centry can see clearly one thousand Yards around him, and not before.
Larry McCoy, owner of Larry's Gun Shop in the 2700 block of Pleasant Valley Road just off Government Boulevard, said Monday that he sells a Romanian-made, AK-47-style weapon for $400.
McCoy said federal law states that a person 18 or older who is not a convicted felon can legally purchase a semiautomatic assault rifle.
Anyone who meets the federal requirements can be in and out of his shop within 10 minutes, armed with an AK-47-style weapon and bullets.
McCoy said, however, that he will not sell an assault rifle to anyone under 21 because he does not believe a teenager is mature enough to handle such a weapon.
I think it's a fine rifle. I think most people buy them to hunt with, but you can use them for self-protection.
I know some will call to boycott you for your prejudice, Larry, but not me, at least not yet (however, any gun owner reading all of Publicola's post ought to tell everyone they know to avoid Rowell's Sporting Goods in Semmes).
No, what I propose is to actually send more business your way by having someone under 21 attempt to buy a semiauto rifle from you and then sue you for age discrimination if you refuse. Or, you could just claim being misquoted and proceed with the sale. In the mean time, if you meant what you were reported saying, you might want to tell some of these guys you don't think they're "mature" enough to be full-fledged Larry's Gun Shop customers.
As for the other implications of this story, i.e., hysterics over the sight of someone bearing arms, Fits has that covered.

Previous reports said he wouldn't put the gun down when ordered. This report says he never drew it.
Opinions on the official use of deadly force in this situation, anyone?
"The reality is that his right to bear arms was not infringed upon," Simons said. Though Bleiler lost his license, he may carry a visible gun in public and keep a gun at his home.
Gottlieb has called on the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives to open a criminal investigation.
I understand the motivation to make the antis suffer the consequences of their outrageous hypocrisy, but I would have stopped at bringing the situation of criminality to light. I would not have endorsed any course of action that would have "legitimized" the BATFU thugs or the treasonous edicts they enforce in the eyes of the public.
It's the same principle I've tried to apply to Snuffy Pfleger.
On July 19, 1776, Congress ordered that the Declaration be engrossed on parchment and signed by every member .
Canada's homicide rate and number of gang-related murders has increased since the federal government's firearms registry and licensing program was

A new ad campaign announced yesterday will paper the city with stark black-and-white warnings that packing an illegal weapon carries a big risk.
