Yep, you have swallowed the cool-aid and taken a dose of ignorance to boot. I’s obvious you have never handled one of these firearms.

An Ak-47 isn’t capable of doing anything but laying there by itself, it takes a person to hold it and fire it. Only a highly trained person could fire “40 aimed shots in about 30 seconds” and only if the AK was a fully automatic version. Of which there are very few on the streets, most are in safes. Muzzle rise will prevent anyone else from having 40 aimed shots in 30 seconds. Not to mention a 40 round magazine is much more likely to jam.

You have swallowed the hype and are pushing it. Cars kill more people then Ak-47s, as do peoples hands. Should the cops be free to shoot anyone who fails to drop those within 10 seconds?


Oh, really ?

You obviously need to get out more, Mr Expert.

In shooting, 30 seconds is an eternity and I can assure that it is very possible for a reasonably competent shooter can get off 30-40 aimed rounds in 30 seconds.

For a pro it's more like 30 superbly aimed shots fired in less than 10 seconds, often much less.

Exibit A - Travis Haley, who is more on the pro side of the aisle

He can reload fast too

Exhibit B Jerry Miculek - He's kind of a pro too. The gun he shoots is a Fn Fal which is much harder to shoot controllably than an AK-47

Exhibit C - Watch the clock on this one, they are not bad at all.

BTW, the disposition of my firearms ownership is none of your f**king business, Mr Expert.

Right, so you take one highly trained and experienced person and claim the average kid on the street can do that.

Now go find all those examples of people actually doing it?

No you’d rather push the anti-gun hype and lies.

I have never heard of a mass murder where the gunman shot 30-40 people in 30 seconds, apart from Hollywood movies. Have you?

I’m ex-military, and I couldn’t come close. My SIL is ex-USMC infantry, and he’s never seen anyone come close to doing that in combat.

Your examples are a bit flawed. Jerry Miculek once fired 6 shots from a revolver, reloaded and fired 6 more shots in under 3 seconds. That is hardly a realistic example of what an average person can do with a 6 shot revolver...
