[ARCHIVED THREAD] - ARMED AMERICA (Page 1 of 2)
Hells yes. Someone should track Bashir down and get him onto ARFCOM. Cause it's a good place to be. I've seen Armed America before. It's good to show the unseen side of gun ownership. |
Good trigger control, poor muzzle control... she's apt to destroy her shin. |

What a cool idea. That book will definitely be on my coffee table August 2007. Maybe this guy will even get an interview with some news or talk show and give 'normal' gun owners some exposure. Note that the book comes out August 2007. The pictures are all taken by the photographer, and as the book has already gone to the publishers he isn't taking any more pictures. 
|
myself and several friends from another site have done a few group pictures from when we've met up to go shooting - we stopped doing so because even though we're very careful with muzzle control, it always ends up looking like someone has a gun pointed at them. |

Needs some banjo music to go with it. |
I am collecting them for a charity drive |
Sorry, can't look at the pic details now... but does it say that he lives in DC or that he lives in the DC area. I often tell people that I live in the DC area, specially if the people who are not familiar with what Northern VA refers to (geographically). The window may be an upper storey window that is unaccessable from the ground. |
Don't hate... that's a Sendra M16 on the right. 
|
I don't know about the pizza boxes, but he's got all the right guns in his collection. Let's see: 2 AR's, 1 accurate bolt gun, 1 shotgun, several handguns of caliber starting with .4. Yep, I'd call that the perfect starter kit. |
That's what originally got me looking closely at the pic. The clean white room with a 2 foot stack of pizza boxes was just weird. I mean, I might have a two foot stack of pizza boxes in the corner on any given day as well but the rest of my shithole of a house matches that corner. |
He's got an A1 above the window. 
|
He's probably already an Arfcommer; check the trigger discipline

Got another reply from the author after he visited this thread: "I just checked out the AR15.com link -- thanks for sending it. For a while I was only forwarding the hate mail, crazy rants, and death threats to my editor and finally he said "Please, only send me me nice things people say, I'm going to have a heart attack." He'll be happy to see this. take care, Kyle" |
the fact that the anti-gun crowd is sending out death threats over a book that shows one of the many positive sides of gun ownership is reason enough to own firearms. |
|
Please Please Please Kyle, If you are reading this I love to read hate mail & crazy rants. Please post them. -JTP |
Yeah that could be the next book LOL (no kidding) |
|
With the pizza box guy, does anyone else find it odd that all the handguns are pointing at him? I would have pointed them all out, or sideways, even with the slides locked back. The way they are, they seem to say "pick the one you will shoot me with." And what's with the normal looking chick with the gangbanger guy on the sofa? Does she protect the meth lab while he is out dealing or what? |
You know it's funny you said that I said the same thing to somebody when i was or related when debating gun control. I said "What evil can a gun do." they said, "All kinds of stuff shoot up schools, people, murder, etc, etc, etc." I said, "You just thought of all of that and one of the concepts I've never ever heard of our thought of (Really hadn't), it just goes to show you that we're the problem, not guns." That slowed them down for a second. Yea guys, hate to say it but people are the ones who devise the sick and twisted things in the world, and the Democrats paranoia stems from the fact that they have the sick and twisted thought perspective to imagine the kind of damage they could do with those guns so they imagine they should be banned, but see no problem with that being their immediate thought pattern when talking about guns. Kind of funny how things work isn't it? EDIT: I thought about having this discussion with my dad's new wife from conneticut "What do you think would happen if I left an Machine Gun on this table?" and she'd immediately go "Well someone could steal it or do something bad with it, etc, etc, etc,." and that might be the time I'd say "Right, because people are evil, but if there was no man that gun would sit there until the end of time and never harm a soul, shows you were the REAL problem lies." EDIT (again): Well I figured I should finish that statement just about, which is why in effect we need harsher laws to repel crime, period, I told my mom last night "Better gun control would be much harsher laws for crimes committed with them." |
tell this guy to sign up and jump in here. i really like that book and would like to hear a little more from him. |
| I just got an email back from him. It basically said thank you and his editor will be glad to hear the positive feedback. I bet this guy has taken an email beating for this book. I'll write him back and ask him to join up here. Maybe he'll hop on and give us more info about the book. |
Kind of judging the book by the cover huh? liberals do that to us too. |
nah thats envy |
That's his food supply from the last 6 months because he bought that Sendra on the left there
