scope and silencer on sale for less than three C notes.

Man! That "silencer" is cheap. Love to have a cheap one for my .270 so my 24 hour ring won't get worse. I think the prices are grossly inflated.

Protects more than just hearing, too.
Can't make gun noise if you don't have any guns.

... and you don't seem to have a "real world" Plan B.

So until you do, and have more than a handful of supporters for it, we'll just keep moving ahead and watching the violent crime rate fall year after year.

President Obama has repeatedly lamented this phenomenon, as well as acknowledged the impossibility of passing new federal gun control legislation while emphasizing he has no desire for strict bans.

However, feel free to demand strict gun bans as loudly as you wish. Nothing will happen except gun rights groups will receive a windfall in fundraising. The NRA thanks you.

I would also note that strict gun bans are definitely not consistent with the actual Democratic Platform concerning firearms.

Like me.

Not to mention driving up the NRA's membership every time they open their mouth.

That's the funny part, thanks to your side, we don't have to do or say anything and they keep racking up record high NICS background checks and sales month after month. Over 200,000 new gun owners in Illinois alone in the last 2 years, from 1.7 million FOID card holders to 2 million in about 20 months.

Thanks to your control minded efforts, and politicians calls to reinstate the now lapsed '94 so called "assault weapons" ban, the AR15 is now the most popular rifle in America.

(Of course in the entire country there are only 280 murders committed with any kind of rifle in a year, but keep trying to ban it.)

Smith & Wesson, DPMS, Bushmaster, Stag Arms and a host of other manufacturers would probably like to put on a second or third shift at the plants. That is if they can find enough good union machinists for the quality of work they need.

Just keep listening to what Nanny Bloomberg tells you to do.

Seems non-existent at the polls..
