Don't care a lot about the age thing. The Antis could use it against us by saying that anyone under 17  or over 45 doesn't need a "Militia Weapon" and that'd mean that if you're over 45 you'd not have cause to own one anymore.  I think as long as you can pull a trigger and come close to hitting what you're aiming at you're a part of the "militia".

Like they pay attention to the Law when it disagrees with their agenda.
I just point'em at the evening news about 2 million people murdered in Sudan for NOT being Arab-muslims, and tell'em 'Fuck off'.

LOL, didn't mean to get your cheerios all wet and soggy.  It just seemed the way they put it there was an age limitation.

Interesting point...

Tortfeasor, Can you post/explain what section 313 of title 32 refers to ??  some manner of disqualifying circumstances ??

P.S.   Forgive my ignorance,  what document is this from ?  I can never remember these types of things, rather frustrating....

Thanks !

It would be thrown out in a heart beat as discrimination based on sex and/or age.

I've used this alot and the most worthless responses always either revolve around how the label unorganized doesn't somehow fit the word regulated, because they choose to distort regulated or they will say they've seen it before and they just don't think it applies.  They can't explain how it doesn't apply though.

See the begining of my sig line.  We have a much Higher Authority than the constitution.  Oh and no age requirements except as provided in Leviticus which is 20years old and older.  Edited to add men.
