Another Gun Thread

[BrianSoddingBoru4]

You are the part of my species evolution I cant stand. How nice of you to talk of "lethal" as if killing a fellow human being with a firearm is something to be admired. It sucks that humans fight, but I hate that side of my species that dream up ways to murder each other.

Do humans need weapons? YES, and unfortunately so. But it is a bullshit attitude that weapons should escape the same scrutiny any other product cant.

And again, you talk of 9mm being used by police and military. YEP, and they also do hundreds of hours per month training for stress shooting situations, something a layperson does not do or have the private money to do at that same level. Target shooting is not the same training as shooting under stress.

Yes a 22 can be deadly, but it isn't designed to spew bullets at a high rate either. Limiting clip size may not stop a shooter, but when that limited clip runs out, it can provide time for people to confront, or flee.

And again, regardless of model, the cheapest way to reduce firearm violence is for the companies to care where their products end up.

Not necessarily.  If you put a .22 round in a 9mm handgun it won't work.  If you put a .50 round in a 9mm handgun, you'll probably wreck it.

Well, you could turn a 9mm round into an explosive bullet, then it could outclass much larger rounds.

Don't be such a size queen.

Let's just put you down for the "Clueless Poster of the Year" award with that one.

What's clueless about it?  You implied that it doesn't matter what sort of cartridge you put into a 9mm.  I showed that it matters quite a lot (I'm no gun expert, but I'm betting that the preferred round for a 9mm handgun is a 9mm round).

And it's not terribly difficult to turn your ammo into explosive rounds.
