.223 is an excellent cartridge for hunting small game.

.223 is also an excellent cartridge for killing human beings. That's what it was designed for, actually. And the AR-15, which is chambered for the .223 cartridge, is just the semi-automatic version of the M-16. Which, wouldn't you know, was designed to killed human beings, too! Our troops are using it for that purpose as we speak!

How so? Are you making "facts" up again? You must be. I have nothing to fear from a Romney Administration. I do from this current obama one and Lord help us if he cheats his way into another term.

Just because it's used for killing people doesn't mean it's unsuitable for hunting.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.223_Remington

The .223 Remington is a sporting cartridge.

The .223 Remington is one of the most common rifle cartridges in use in the United States, being widely used in two types of rifles: (1) varmint rifles, most of which are bolt action and commonly have 1-in-12 rifling twist suitable for bullets between 38 to 55 grains (2.5 to 3.6 g), and (2) semi-automatic rifles such as the AR-15 and the Ruger Mini-14, which are commonly found to have twist rates of 1-in-7, 1-in-9, or 1-in-8.

Fertilizer is an excellent tool for killing human beings. That's what it was designed for, actually. And the 10lb bag of fertilizer which contains chemicals is just the smaller bag of the 50lb bag. Which, wouldn't you know, was designed to help grow plants, too! People are using it for that purpose as we speak!

Box cutters are also excellent for killing human beings . . . .

You DO realize that pretty much all firearms are "military style"? The majority of firearms and the surrounding technologies were first used in the military and then found their way into civilian activities . .

What black man? You mean the President? He's not black. How is he black? Are you a racist?

Mr. Ryan wants to fix Social Security and Medicare. That's a good thing. I wish him well. The plan that obama has is to totally bankrupt the entire system.....and America.

Trolling? The clasical definition of a troll p[ost is one you disagree with in whole or part.

It is a good thing to have these forum sites. I have fun on them. I'm not lonely, far from it. I am a jackass (but not the Democrat kind).

As far as being the "next one", if I did decide to "vent", no one would know. Other than bodies would start to pile up. I am that good.....or use to be. I'm a bit too old now.

You are not correct about the .223 being designed for killing humans.

The 223 Remington was introduced to the public as a commercial cartridge by Remington in January 1964, one month later in February 1964 this same cartridge was officially standardized by the U.S. military as the 5.56mm ball cartridge M193, several years later was accepted by NATO as the 5.56x45 NATO cartridge.

Many years of testing and development were required to produce this cartridge, the actual name .223 Remington was given to this cartridge in 1959, prior to 1959 this cartridge was also known as the .222 Special.


The 223 Remington is one of the top varmint and predator rounds in the United States. With so many variations of rifle action types, surplus ammo, range brass, bulk bullets it's fair to say the .223 Remington will remain at the top of the sales charts for a very long time.

It was designed to kill varmits and predators. The military was also interested in a new round and saw this one as a great one to kill varmits and predators of the human variaty.

You don't know much about guns, do you?

Ryan wants to use SS to invade our homes? Wait, Ryan is not even black?

Why do you say it has to be black men invading homes, are you some sort of racist who says home invaders must be black men? Isn't that sexist too? Why can't it be an Asian Woman invading our homes with Social Security held in the attack position? I heard getting hit by a social security makes you drop your watermelon flavored ice tea...

Not all firearms accept magazines that hold 30+ cartridges, now do they?

No, it's not an AK. It's a Czech vz. 58. Just picked it up today, can't wait to try it out on the range. 🙂

Robert Evans dude that looks awesome!
June 7, 2011 at 10:13pm

Robert Evans isn't there a way to make those full auto?
June 7, 2011 at 10:14pm

Thomas Caffall no, and that would be very illegal without a mountain of paperwork and approval from BATFE. there are vz's that are full-auto, but they are military issue to the czech army and others.
June 7, 2011 at 10:17pm

Robert Evans I knew there was a permit requirement, but I think a full auto would be a fun way to spend money at the range lol, man you totally have to let me shoot that thing one day.
June 7, 2011 at 10:19pm

Robert Evans also what did it cost? I considered buying an AK for fun at a range
June 7, 2011 at 10:20pm

Thomas Caffall it was 799, no tax, no shipping, and they paid the ffl fee to the dealer they shipped it to. check it out on czechpoint-usa.com. most ak's are less expensive, but the vz is lighter and more accurate.
June 7, 2011 at 11:05pm

Thomas Caffall also, full-auto rifles start about 10,000 and go up from there. bit cost-prohibitive. and the BATFE check takes 60-90 days at the least.
June 7, 2011 at 11:08pm

Robert Evans damn.
June 7, 2011 at 11:57pm

Robert Evans I checked out the site, I love that polymer model

I just got a new toy! It's a Russian Mosin Nagant that looks like it might not have been fired in 80 years, but was extremely well preserved. The two big cans above it are ammo. I'll be at the gun range as much as I can...

You have no idea what you're talking about, do you? It's just a football game to you, or you're trolling. I just think you're that stupid. Hurry up and kick the bucket, old man. Your dinosaur beliefs are outdated.

Yeah, but fertilizer also grows food. Box cutters cut boxes. Cars transport people.

Guns are weapons, and are made for the purpose of destruction. You really can't do anything else with a gun.

So you really think that obama is black? LOL! I find that strange.

Let's recap, shall we?

His mother was all white and his father was mostly Arab. How dop you get black out of that?
