It’s something about spraying from the hip since you supposedly don’t need to aim with a “bullet hose.” Then they were conflating full-auto to semi-auto as a reason to ban semi-autos.

Back in those days, with a MAC-10 and its VERY crude and close together sights, we did a lot of hip firing. Now it’s all “squared up” and using a red dot sight or whatever.

When that picture was taken we were walking through a pop up target course, where ranges were like 5 to 15 yards. You can totally kill popups from the hip at that range. MACs were not a primary weapon anyway. They were for “shootouts in phone booths” such as on the bridge of a ship, where the compactness (for scaling the ships) was more important than accuracy beyond CQB range.

Shortly after, MACs were replaced by MP5s.

For hating guns they sure are fascinated with them and those who use them.

They also have an FFL to be able to buy and sell guns. Figure that one out.

A possible 150 out of 6 million concealed carry holders?

WRONG

150 dead souls, including sucides, and muliples.

So say 60 plus.

Some of those AK47’s ,etc.

Be careful how you say it.

I'm shocked I tell you, shocked to find that gun grabbers are not honest, that they lie and distort, and have their own personal or taxpayer provided armed guards.
