Shutguns and revolvers

The original, erroneous claim made by yourself:

Hence the response seeking clarification. Explain how to go about removing all of these types of firearms and other types of weapons from existence, preventing anymore from ever being constructed by those who have the knowledge of how such work, and limiting everyone to nothing more than shotguns and revolvers, to insure that firearm technology never advances further beyond that point.

Demonstrate that the position of yourself is actually valid and holds merit, and is not simply more impotent whining about how if only reality was somehow different from what it currently is.

 

like the civil war?

 

Ask the guys at Gettysburg!

 

I have a better reason to justify keeping mine.
The government has no right to take my right from me

 

They're weapons of war.

 

Yes with your sample size of one you've proven much.

How many people were killed in Columbine without AR15's?

How many people were killed in Virginia Tech with 10 round handguns?

The police engaged the TX shooter.

The liberal police in FL hid outside.

 

If I can remember correctly, one of my favorite quotes from the Bard goes something like:
"Sweet are the uses of adversity, which like the toad, ugly and venomous, bears yet a precious jewel in the crown of his head"

I began learning the "uses of adversity" early on in life and remember similar fights, rejections & red eared embarrassments but was generally popular, wrestled Light-Heavyweight & tried to look out for those who were bullied later in High School.

Meanwhile, every 14 year old either had a full sized firearm and had access to countless loaded firearms and explosives around the neighborhood.
The only explosions in school were M-80s dropped in toilets.
Students would only bring guns to school that they had recently gotten for a birthday or Christmas but the idea of shooting anyone wasn't even joked about.

Yes there is something wrong in a generation of trigger happy teens that has made them ill equipped to deal with the cruelty of life's adversities. The era of "Child Worship" has done them a great disservice.

 

From what I've read about places that have enacted so called "Assault Weapon" bans. Neither the police nor the local governments are even thinking of searching homes or otherwise enforcing the ban.
The only way you could really run into trouble is if a zealous LEO sees you with an AW at a traffic stop etc
Or...
If your Gun Ban neighbor rats you out.
Naturally, the Gun Ban groups want more "teeth" in the unconstitutional law.

 

The selfie generation. Believes the world really gives a **** and can't handle the reality

 

They've been raised by electronic devices

 

This is part of what engenders the pursuit of gun control; the thought of having to take responsibility for yourself sends these sheeple running for their safe spaces.

 

Shakespeare

Duke Senior:

"Sweet are the uses of adversity,
Which, like the toad, ugly and venomous,
Wears yet a precious jewel in his head;
And this our life, exempt from public haunt,
Finds tongues in trees, books in the running brooks,
Sermons in stones, and good in every thing."

As You Like It Act 2, scene 1, 12–

 

Josh Sugarmann's statement on the recent school shooting in Texas:

“Once again the nation mourns innocent children shot dead at school, a place where they should feel and be safe. This time it is students at Sante Fe High School in Texas. In communities across America, children live in terror of gun violence whether it be the daily horror of urban gun violence or the sporadic terror of school shootings. This is the inevitable result of a gun industry that is free of even the most basic health and safety regulation and therefore focuses on producing increasingly lethal firearms and accessories such as bump stocks and ammunition magazines holding up to 100 rounds. This is a national shame. We must act now to address this expanding public health crisis. Far too many have already paid the ultimate price for our inaction.”

Are revolvers and shotguns more lethal than they used to be?

 

No.

The children are.

 

What about the increase in the production and marketing of high caliber handguns? The Santa Fe shooter had such a weapon.

"Yet in our nation’s ongoing conversation about the root causes of gun violence, the makers of guns are hardly ever mentioned. As a public health researcher, I find this odd, because evidence shows that the culture around guns contributes significantly to gun violence. And firearm manufacturers have played a major role influencing American gun culture....

"So what can explain the jump in the sale of high caliber handguns and semi-automatic rifles?....

"Gunmakers have become very effective at marketing their wares as necessary tools for self-defense – perhaps in large part to offset a decline in demand for recreational use."

The .38 Special, the type of revolver that the Santa Fe shooter had, was designed in 1898. "New fangled". Do you bother to check anything before posting?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.38_Special

 

No, they aren't. These firearms, especially those chambered .38 Special or 12 gauge, haven't changed much in the last 100 years.

 

Be careful with those 100 year old shotguns, many have Damascus barrels of twisted or laminated steel which are not considered safe with modern ammunition.

 

1916, General "****** Jack" Pershing Mexican Expedition chasing down Pancho Villa.

Not all but many of Pershing's Calvary soldiers left their rifles behind with Eisenhower and crossed into Mexico only armed with .45 ACP M-1911 pistols.

The first U.S. military mechanized assault in history was pulled off by Lt. George S. Patton during the same time in Mexico and Patton and his men were only armed with pistols and revolvers.


The first motor vehicles used in actual combat by the U.S. Army were the 1916 Dodge touring cars in which forces under the command of Brig. Gen. John "Black Jack" Pershing pursued and engaged Pancho Villa following Villa's raid on Columbus, N.M., March 6, 1916.

A young Army lieutenant, George S. Patton, saw his first motorized combat as a member of this "punitive expedition."

 

So pistols and revolvers are the same as shotguns and revolvers. And by the way that wasn't a war. Nice try though.

 

Since when is a .38 Special a "high caliber handgun"???

 

Well this one hundred year old shotgun can be slam fired.





If you can't get your hands on a Winchester Mod.-12 shotgun, next choice is the Winchester Mod.-1300 Defender.
It doesn't slam fire but the slide comes back on it's own only requiring pushing the slide forward. Four rounds of 00 buck, 36 X .33 cal leads rounds going down range in one second.
