Google “shoot twice and go home”.
on the bright side, the III percent that wont could still kick france' ass while curing the disease that is DC...
we are in the staring contest now with the polidiots refusing to throttle back the progressive agenda...theyve passed the point of no return, so whos gonna blink ???
A country that is capable of invading the US is capable of reducing it to a de-populated nuclear wasteland. Citizens with guns are an irrelevence to national defence when your country has enough WMDs to wipe out the planet...
Thats why we have a formal military: to stop big stuff outside our borders.
Any attempts at subjugation (vs. obliteration) still requires boots on the ground, which our army of snipers would handily dispatch.
Nice post!
That’s why the groups would have to remain small and autonomous, like the Tea Party.
It drives the left nuts that they can’t find “the leader” of the Tea Party and single him out for destruction.
Recent gun show - vendor had 2 cases of these and cans and cans of ammo. They were gone by the end of the show.
So you disarm the civilian population, and rely on the political leadership being willing to use nukes rather than face a military defeat? I don't have words to tell you how bad that idea is.
They are a great piece, not only because they are a piece of history but the accuracy is just amazing.
And you can find them dirt cheap.
Prices I saw:
Russian 9130 for $99
can (440) 7.62X54 for $99
US military snipers still use, on the whole, bolt action rifles which are little different from their counterparts from a century ago. ...and not just so they can sleep better at night.
Google “shoot twice and go home”.
Yes they do with support from the troops they protect and often air, arty and armor.
I can’t really imagine any country being so reckless as to try and invade a nation with a global nuclear reach, but even if they were, I couldn’t really see them getting past the largest and most technologically advanced military in the world.
Guns in the arms of citizens are more relevant vs criminals and a tyrannical government, but with a foreign invader, they are a moot point....
We only have the 6th largest army in the world, and I don’t trust the politicans to maintain our technologcial advantage. Too many of them would gladly gut our military budget and abandon the federal government’s responsibility to provide for the national defense to pay for more welfare programs.
I've got two and paid $20 more than that price.
The nice part is that my class 3 license gets me front door delivery. No FFL handling fee ($25) and no Brady Bill tax ($25).
Those guns are fun to shoot but I've had brusies more than once! They get your attention!
I didn’t buy one, but my friend bought one.
I figured I’d see how he likes it, and shoot it a few times myself,
then pick up one at the next show. It seems there are crates of these things available.
I can get the contact info of the vendor if you want to ask him where he got them.
And if one decided to go on a no-support suicide mission, how much damage could he wreak?
Times a million like minded?
If each decided to “shoot twice and go home”?
“Big armor” is only good against governments and high value targets. They are nigh unto worthless against individuals.
