Maybe you should move to Oz then if you like the idea? Just for clarification, guns are basically banned in Chicago, so there should be no gun deaths there, right? The President is a fink. |

Better question is what are gun laws where most of the guns were purchased. If the gun laws were strict then tough laws don't work, but it's not the case. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

FrGamble Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 67 Posts: 7596 | It is time for me to make up my mind on this issue and there are many knowledgeable and passionate people on both sides so I think with your help I can hammer out my own opinion. Here is the lump of molten metal I am beginning with: Any type of rifle that fires a bullet as quickly as you pull the trigger is not needed in hunting or in target practice. Therefore I believe all rifles should require some action, like a bolt action or lever pump, in between shots and have a magazine capacity of no more than 5 rounds.

It is true that Germany tried to encourage Mexico to start a second front with the USA But the U-boats sank two Mexican tankers with some loss of life which persuaded Mexico to declare war on Germany. SS Potrero del Llano torpedoed and sunk on 14 May 1942 by Reinhard Suhren's U-564 (13 fatalities, 22 survivors) SS Faja de Oro torpedoed and sunk on 21 May 1942 by Kapitänleutnant Hermann Rasch, U-106 (10 fatalities, 27 survivors) Mexico declared war on Germany on 1 June 1942. |

I don't know Mejican law, but in the US, "it depends". For a .50cal machine gun you need a Class III license. I won't bore you, but when all is said and done, you've a low chance of being granted it and will spend $20k - $60k before you have that weapon in your hand legally. An "AK" is a bit confusing, as both the Russian military version, every European military version, and every civilian neutered version are all referred to as "AK's" colloquially here. Any military issue, select fire (col.- "machine gun") version requires the same process as the .50cal above, only difference being the gun and ammo are much cheaper. If the neutered civ version, those only come in semi-auto. In some free states, you could just buy one, sans permit, subject only to accessory restrictions imposed by the state. In others, you have to register. In others, they're not allowed at all. Be bold and risk defeat, or be cautious and encourage it. |
