IN a country where it is believed there are two guns for every resident – one pistol-packing American is doing his bit to bump up the averages.

"...has a frightening 3,000 weapons ..." Uh, maybe frightening to some panty wetting liberal scum bags. Like the HAGs for instance. Besides, some folks don't advertise what they have. Which to me is a wise thing to do.

Perhaps he just gets excitable as to choice, and likes to keep his options open....

IF guns REALLY DID kill people then this man’s neighborhood/city would be decimated.

3000 Guns. big deal. If he can shoot more than two at any one time he has extreme talent.

We once had a war with the Brit's over a 2 cent rise in the cost of a breakfast drink.

Now the Muslums are over running them and someday we will have to save their a$$ like we do with everyone else.

What a bunch of nancy girls they have become.

This is a very interesting article.
I would suspect that there may be a few times when people are turned away from taking this weaponry tour, if they seem too eager, too manic, or just suspicious. Hopefully, the owner has enough staff to help him run this large facility.

Look at how clean and organized the displays are, at least in the photographs. That likely means he has to trust people to clean or maintain these armory displays without ‘finding’ souvenirs here and there. Maybe there are cameras always switched on.

Mel Bernstein is 71 y/0. “I don’t look it, huh?”
He seems like a fun guy.

“frightening”

Most times you can only shoot one at at time. I hate unhinged hyperbole

In the fwiw dept, I knew a guy about thirty years ago who lived in Cumberland county VA who owned legally, a 105 towed howitzer and an 81mm mortar.

With training ammo.

It was always fun to go to his farm.

5.56mm

That makes you a neighbor. I’m planning to take my brother over there when he visits. I’ve been here for a few years and haven’t seen the place yet.

“Frightening” — says all you need to know about the author and the paper, doesn’t it? All liberals these days are horrified, queasy, scared, frightened, petrified, etc. What a bunch of pantywaists.

Frightening?

Hardly.

The more arms in citizen hands the better.

The Dragon Man is Jewish. The Sun is just antisemitic.
