Incidentally…

A buddy of mine, ex-military SF, sent me a text saying that Obama promised a new “assault weapons ban” during his next term.

So my question, naturally, is this: does that ban apply only to us as US citizens with a natural right to keep and bear arms, or do the Mexican drug cartels we’ve be arming also have to surrender their caches of “assault” weapons?

I mean, fair is fair. Right?

    That should do wonders for the price of guns, ammos and accessories.

  2. Ernst Schreiber says:

    Get your spare magazines now.

  3. Jeff G. says:

    I’m going to get some new ones. I’ve got 10 for the SCAR and 7 for the S&W 22LR; I’ve got 6 for the FNP-45 TAC (they are now impossible to find); and 5 for the Taurus.

    Problem is, I’m tapped out. Still paying for what I already bought.

  4. leigh says:

    Got ’em. And thousands of extra rounds of ammo.

    We make Jeff’s stash look like a starter kit.

  5. sdferr says:

    Fortunately there will be no Obama’s next term. There may be a big assed rock-slide in the near future though.

  6. leigh says:

    Agreed sdferr. Obama is a goner. If only we could get the media to snap out of their delusions.

  7. Ernst Schreiber says:

    Normally I’d say you likely have enough spare mags, Jeff. Just as normally I’d say that Obama’s promise is likely an empty one, since there’s no chance of Congressional action.

    But Obama’s new normal isn’t normal at all, is it?

  8. Ernst Schreiber says:

    Don’t get cocky kid/let’s not start sucking each other’s dicks yet gentlemen/faster please

    and all the other usual admonitions.

    …………well . . . . um . . . . safety. . . . . . wait, no . . . . .RACIST!!

  10. Jeff G. says:

    I’d like to pick up about 5 more of each, to be honest.

    I’d also like to put away another thousand rounds of 308. But time is running out, and the money isn’t there.

  11. Ernst Schreiber says:

    That’s okay Jeff. You know you’re going to have to sell the SCAR-17 anyways. I mean, it might as well be you, since your liberal anti-gun wife will sell it for practically nothing once she learns there’s an evil black rifle* in the house.

    Everyone ends up selling their guns.

    Either that or they lose them in tragic boating mishaps.

    *So evil in fact that it doesn’t feel the need to dress in black!

  12. Jeff G. says:

    My wife loves shooting the SCAR. And she took the pistols out for a spin yesterday.

    God, how I’m glad I’m not married to a woman with an ounce of Amanda Marcotte in her — despite the fact that she was a triple major in Women’s Studies, English, and Italian.

    That could have gone badly.

  13. mojo says:

    Especially the Italian.

  14. Ernst Schreiber says:

    Jeff, sooner or later every gun owner will wind up having to sell their guns because of anti-gun spouses or significant others, or suffering from a terrible boating mishap.

    It’s because I know this to be true that I don’t own any firearms.
    (Well, that and the conditioning).

    I mean, why bother if I’m only going to lose it?

  15. Alec Leamas says:

    God, how I’m glad I’m not married to a woman with an ounce of Amanda Marcotte in her —

    You sure? I’ve heard Amynda’s been around town with that dong of hers.

  16. sdferr says:

    Hey, with Italian you get cannoli, to say nothing of Giambattista Vico.

  17. cranky-d says:

    I expected a ban during his first term, and bought accordingly.

  18. Ernst Schreiber says:

    Oh! So you’re the one responsible for the great everything shooting related shortage of late ’08/early ’09.

  19. leigh says:

    Sure, cranky. You bought up all the arms and then lost them all in the tragic boating accident.

    Now what are we supposed to do?!

  20. cranky-d says:

    I did my part, Ernst.
