Default Firearms Refresher Course

FIREARMS REFRESHER COURSE

1. An armed man is a citizen. An unarmed man is a subject.
2. A gun in the hand is better than a cop on the phone.
3. Colt: The original point and click interface.
4. Gun control is not about guns; it's about control.
5. If guns are outlawed, can we use swords?
6. If guns cause crime, then pencils cause misspelled words.
7. Free men do not ask permission to bear arms.
8. If you don't know your rights, you don't have any.
9. Those who trade liberty for security have neither.
10. The United States Constitution (c)1791. All Rights Reserved.

11. What part of "shall not be infringed" do you not understand?

12. The Second Amendment is in place in case the politicians
ignore the others.
13. 64,999,987 firearms owners killed no one yesterday.
14. Guns only have two enemies; rust and politicians.
15. Know guns, know peace, know safety. No guns, no peace, no
safety.
16. You don't shoot to kill; you shoot to stay alive.
17. 911: Government sponsored Dial-a-Prayer.
18. Assault is a behavior, not a device.
19. Criminals love gun control; it makes their jobs safer.
20. If guns cause crime, then matches cause arson.
21. Only a government that is afraid of its citizens tries to
control them.
22. You have only the rights you are willing to fight for.
23. Enforce the gun control laws we ALREADY have; don't make
more.
24. When you remove the people's right to bear arms, you create
slaves.
25. The American Revolution would never have happened withgun
control.

I think ignorance needs to be added here.

Anyone see that article where the 7 year old had two loaded hand guns in school this week. No malice intended at all. Got them from his uncles house and was playing cops and robbers or something with them thinking they were toys. Luckily nothing happened. Uncle was arrested.

Some people are just plain to stupid to own a gun. It puts the rest of us in danger.

I think that covers the whole load of them. Took the girlfriend to the range yesterday with the .22 and the H&K USP .45 tactical. She shoots better than most of the guys I know, that and shes alot more fun to look at than the guys I take shooting . She was stacking rounds at 15 yrds w/ the .45.

Spent the rest of the afternoon making sure they were "happy guns" by cleaning them. Clean guns = happy guns.

Also looked into a H&K P7M8....the ONLY 9mm I would ever own.

LOL! You should have seen it a few years ago before the divorce. The collection was about 3 times that size with some rare stuff. I was forced to sell off some of the ones that had real value just to survive for a while. I am slowly building it back to what it was.

Blanco, I was never a dealer. Just a collector. I shot competatively for years and was a rifle and pistol instructor while in the Marine Corps., so guns are just a passion of mine.
