Every law applied to the US public should be applied to all government entities.

If someone really wanted to stop cartel violence then they would close the border.
This is clearly about taking away the people’s rights and nothing else.

They get used all the time in Mexico. Most of them came from the US. The civilian US market isn't where US M2s come from but that's none of my business.

No crimes committed shooting a .50 in the US… so the US is supposed to endure a 2A infringement because Mexico can’t control its cartel shit?

That steaming load of shit:

it shall be unlawful for any person to import, sell, manufacture, transfer, or possess, in or affecting interstate or foreign commerce, a rifle capable of firing .50 caliber ammunition.
View Quote


So, .50 caliber muzzle-loaders? Is my .54 safe?

It may actually be time to buy that .50 caliber rifle I've always thought about but have absolutely zero foreseeable use for. Launching expensive and thunderously loud middle fingers will have to be a good enough reason.

Didn't read the rest of the bill to see if they narrow down that definition, or if it covers ammunition as well, because I don't care to. Hopefully it dies - not like the people have any say in the matter.

How many did the Cartels buy thanks to our own government. How many government employees were charged as criminals for arming drug cartels?
Link Posted: 5/17/2024 10:16:44 PM EDT
[#34]
They’re calling it the “stop arming cartels” act?

What the fuck is this? The fuckin’ gayTF and weiner Holder, under orders from the cocksucker in chief, orchestrated gun smuggling to mexico. If you want to finger some assholes, start with them.

Further, cartels source heavy hardware straight from the mexican army, seeing as over half the government and significant portions of the military are in cartel pockets.

It didn't malfunction, Marv failed to take into account the ripper claw when he mounted it so he didn't have proper clearance.  

He fired it several times at the tanks and you can see the rounds impacting the arm of the claw.  The state troopers claimed he was shooting at them with it though.

its to scare the public into giving rights away,  these politicians love criminals.  they hate us.


the government was letting the cartels buy guns, telling dealers to sell when they said as much.  then they tried to burn some of them for doing what the .gov atf told them to do..

They don't give two shits about the cartels, they want to keep a permanent underclass from acquiring effective militia weapons.

And here we are. My 6.5CM will reach a mile but not with the energy I desire at that range. Do I go back to my 338 solution or jump to 50? I have never owned one but fired many and I just love that thump you can only get from a 50 being unleashed. We can govern ourselves and cartels are only in power because our own government put them there and keep them well.

Separately, it also establishes multiple purchase reporting for all firearms.

TX and FL guys, please punish these idiot legislators at the polls.

I see in the future that there will be a lot of .499 cal barrels sold.

Edit; They keep saying 50 cal, but I'm guessing they mean just 50 BMG. looks like it was written by the usual amateurs.

[Last Edit: Banshee35] [#46]
I bought mine a while ago because everybody keeps saying “nobody needs a 50 cal”

Then I ordered some APIT ammo for it and my wife at the time said “what do you need that for”

And I said “because you never know when you may have to punch a hole in an engine block and set it on fire”
