I assume you know the difference between military and civilian behavior. Maybe seeing the results of death by humans had changed me. I have never toughed an automatic weapon since carrying one 24/7/365. My Remington pump is the fastest weapon I have now. I am just not as frightened as most people I guess. I will take my chances unarmed everyday.

You are always looking for a fight. pwb Dec 2021 #7

I disagree with most on this forum on this particular issue, and am not hesitant to explain why. Dial H For Hero Dec 2021 #8

Yeah see, you are even against safety. pwb Dec 2021 #10

How is emphasizing the need for the 4 rules of gun safety against safety? Dial H For Hero Dec 2021 #11

I would walk out if someone suggested a round in the chamber. pwb Dec 2021 #12

Given that, there would be no point in you attending such a class, given that they almost Dial H For Hero Dec 2021 #13

Yeah I don't need any lessons. pwb Dec 2021 #14

The use of weapons in combat and the use of firearms in legal self defense have some overlap, but Dial H For Hero Dec 2021 #19

So why do you think that makes you special? oneshooter Dec 2021 #33

Who said I was special? You did. pwb Dec 2021 #39

Never said that you were "special". oneshooter Dec 2021 #40

And you think you are? pwb Dec 2021 #41

Never said or claimed that I was. oneshooter Dec 2021 #47

I actually recommended that you *not* take firearms self defense lessons, if you'll recall. Dial H For Hero Dec 2021 #42

I don't need your recommendations. Thank you. pwb Dec 2021 #43

Here's a good debate about that topic. PTWB Dec 2021 #25

There's a legitimate debate to be had, but labeling anyone "irresponsible" and "unsafe" because they Dial H For Hero Dec 2021 #26

Certainly absurd. PTWB Dec 2021 #51

Would you please answer the question. oneshooter Dec 2021 #32

A thoughtful, reasonable proposal. On this forum, it will go nowhere. Dial H For Hero Dec 2021 #2

A reasonable person is supposed to compromise with this? AndyS Dec 2021 #15

Back again? PTWB Dec 2021 #16

Have a good one bud. PTWB Dec 2021 #18

I actually have come up with what I (humbly) think would be a reasonable compromise. Dial H For Hero Dec 2021 #21

I don't think anyone could argue against that. PTWB Dec 2021 #23

Thank you, but I'm confident that they can and will. The moment "assault weapons" are mentioned, Dial H For Hero Dec 2021 #27

Gunowners will not agree with ANY of this. EOM oneshooter Dec 2021 #35

On the whole I agree. It's simply a thought experiment. Both sides are far too entrenched for any Dial H For Hero Dec 2021 #37

This is why any compromise legislation has an uphill fight. Hangingon Dec 2021 #50

No gun control advocate would disagree with any of these. Gun humpers have already Scrivener7 Dec 2021 #20

Gun control advocates certainly do disagree with the compromises listed at the end of the OP. Dial H For Hero Dec 2021 #22

Nonsense. PTWB Dec 2021 #24
