    "SHE" is a he...and you've been told that numerous times.

    So you're talking about highly trained shooters who take the utmost care of their equipment.

    Oh.

    So those guys don't throw 30 loaded speed loaders (totalling 180 bullets...how many did Paduch fire to shoot 500 people?) in a duffle do they?

    Oh

    How are speed loaders worse? I've used them for years and have never ever had a problem.

    Speedloaders hold cartridges, not bullets. What kind of nonsense are you talking here?

    If they weren't legal for sale it would have been a lot harder to get. He bought his within two years of his spree.

    How do you carry them? Individually in a pouch? How many do you carry at a time?

    So that means you carry what...30 "cartridges" (we all knew what "bullet" meant) ?

    The link above says they can have problems. Detachable magazines almost never do

    Unlike the function of a speedloader, the cartridges are never separated from the moon clip—all the rounds stay attached to each other and to the moon clip even when the revolver cylinder is closed for firing. This has some advantages over a traditional speed loader. There is no fumbling to release the rounds from the loader and there is no risk of dropping or losing rounds that are released from the loader prematurely.

    What are you talking about? I use 5 star speed loaders and have never ever had a problem. I"ve dropped them on concrete and they still hold the cartridges securely. I love snubs and have carried them for years without an issue. The manual of arms is a little different for them but I reload with the strong hand holding the revolver which is a bit faster. The Ruger full moon clips for the Ruger LCR's in 9mm are also outstanding.
    I will generally carry two speed loaders and two speed strips, the latter if you need to top off after firing less then the whole cylinder.

    They generally want someone else to enforce that law. Such are liberal dreams.

    Many strategists tell people if it comes to a civil war-the proper targets are not cops forced to enforce martial law but the yapping gun banners who created the problems to start with--ie soft targets

    About 150 Americans are killed each year by people using assault type rifles. For each of those killed by assault type rifle, 10-15 Americans are either stabbed or beaten to death, and twenty or so die in house fires. So for each assault rifle death, 40-50 die from knives, blunt instruments, and house fires.

    You'd KILL people if semi-autos were banned from being sold?

    Maybe someone ought to take a look at YOUR guns. That's not what stable people say and unstable people shouldn't own guns

    Almost NO mass murders are committed with knives.

    Virtually all mass murders involve semi-auto weapons with detachable magazines.

    I would hope the citizens of this country would get rid of any government that would do such a thing and if certain gun banners would try to oppress the citizenry, then the citizenry would be justified in using any means necessary to eliminate the oppression. The real unstable individuals are those who don't trust honest Americans to have defensive arms. your posting history suggests an extreme hatred of our constitutional freedoms. in other words, your hatred of freedom is exactly what our founders tried to guard against

    Great. So you understand there is no need for semi-autos. Thank you.

    this is dishonest nonsense since mass murders are very rare and involve very few of the gunshot murders in this country. but I want you to go on record wanting to ban semi auto handguns which given the supreme court rulings, is essentially treason

    I've made it VERY clear that we'd be a lot safer if those who felt the need to own a hand gun had revolvers rather than semi-autos with detachable mags

    need is irrelevant. remind me why we need your opinions? or you for that matter? I need semi autos because people like you might actually try to impose your gun banning fascism

    Being accurate is dishonest?
