I read this in a CNN article:
They're not even trying to be suttle anymore. Does this sound ridiculous to anyone else, or is it just me? Seems like they're talking to a child or something.
I know this thread is about guns specifically (not really news and current events) but this just caught my attention.

Not trying to troll. Probably shouldn't have posted that in this thread since I didn't want to turn it political, but it just sounded so silly to me and I thought you guys could appreciate it.![]()
CNN is really pushing this BS about gun control. I used to think they were better than fox news, but this is pretty bad.
You weren't this guy?

Because making an AK out of a shovel or an AR15 out of one would be pretty cheap.
Ok, from another forum, this poster said about AR 15 makers (his words, not mine):
Yeah, I watched CNN the day of the shooting. They had the same stock photos of the guns up for hours on end. Occasionally they'd break to talk about some heroic teacher, but I'd wager 70% of their reporting that day was fixated on the guns, even before the details were known. Agenda much?

Sounds like typical group-think douchey AR-15.com comments (e.g. "IF IT ISN'T BCM IT'S A PIECE OF CRAP"). I can't comment on KAC or PSA (never heard of them).Ok, from another forum, this poster said about AR 15 makers (his words, not mine):
Agree or disagree? What are KAC and PSA?BMW/Mercedes Benz/Porche/Lexus = BCM/Noveske/LaRue/Colt/LMT/KAC/H&K
Honda/Jeep/Toyota/Ford = S&W M&P, PSA and Rock River
Hyundai/Kia = Bushmaster
Yugo/AMC Pacer/Matchbox Car/Turd sandwich = DPMS
What the....wow, wish I was that good....

You guys should have seen some of the looks I got *at the range* on Sunday while sighting in my EOTech...
...yup...
AT THE RANGE. From other people shooting there. At least one each of "What the fuck?" and "You gotta be fucking kidding me", with a few "Jesus Christ"'s thrown in for effect. On the up-side, after about 5 minutes I had the rifle bay to myself. :|
Wasn't trying to rustle any jimmies, apparently I did.
I guess it just stays in the safe until I can find a spot in the woods or something.
I just want to put holes in paper. :\
Wtf people at the range gave you shit for using a rifle?!
Stupid panic sweeping the nation and stupid me for delaying, my wife gave me the go ahead on a rifle a few weeks ago and I procrastinated!!! So that meant today I walked away with a WASR-10 for $670... ARGH!! Thats only what, $200+ more than it would have been a year ago? I'm glad I got one but at this rate I'll never get to my original plan of having a Sig-556 SWAT, WASR-10, SAIGA 12g, and some AR-10 variant that I build myself. I looked and looked for lowers but found nothing online or local. The shop I was at did have some flat top AR-15 (their last one) for $990 that I thought about but for some reason I've wanted an AK even more than an AR.
Ugh, at least I was able to pick up 5 poly 30 rounders for $20 each on top of the 2 metal 30 rounders it came with. They were limited the sales to 5 mags a person, maybe I should have my wife go back for more tomorrow...
Ah well, at least now I own an AK to go with my few other assorted firearms (.45, .380, .22, 20G, 12G, .17 hmr). Time to start shopping for accessories, clean this baby up, and go punch some holes in zombie paper!
Man, I wish I would have invested more into firearms a few years ago. Got my wasr10 for $299 lol. Should have bought 40 of em.
$299... ouch. I knew I was screwed but thankfully not that badly, as of last year it was quite hard to find one for less than $450 from a reputable seller but still, that's a far cry from the $670 I paid today. Wish it had not been so but I really wanted one so I guess it's all good. Heck, I could probably turn around and sell it in a week for $800+
Maybe more. No-name brand stripped lowers on Gunbroker going for hundreds. The SR15 lower I received only 2 weeks ago for $700 is already close to $1000 with 3 days left.
Arsenal AKs used to be $500 guns. Now they are easily going for $1000 or more, before the Newton shooting.
Sigh.
