Ya know, I am somewhat tempted.
And then I get this vision in my head: I'm sitting in court after having shot someone in self-defense and some do-gooder prosecuter is holding up "Exhibit A" and telling the jury, "This gun fanatic is such a homophobe that he even installed a part on his assault weapon that says 'SURPRISE COCKFAGS!!!!" And so i just go with the $2 plain one. |

Still waiting for something like that to actually have any bearing on a real case...

My biggest problem with the show is that anybody serious about prepping wouldn't be putting it on TV.

The "Surprise Cockfags!" one is the only one I ever considered seriously. That movie cracked me up. If your so uptight that this would bother you, I wouldn't want to go shooting with you anyways.

Never interested me, but zero fucks given - if I'm on a jury and someone used their firearm lawfully, I will process it as such and not by any dust cover.

To the general public, "Surprise!", "Smile - Watch For Flash", Punisher skull logos, and the like do not make the statement that the bearer is a mature, responsible adult. |

Yay, another thread about what not to have on your gun if you ever have to defend yourself with it.
When has there ever been a case where it mattered? |

With the invention of 300blk, 6.8 etc using them for caliber identification is a great idea.

It's true that a prosecutor will use that against you, but he will also use every accessory you put on that gun, every post you've made on AR15.com and any other gun site, any gun magazines you subscribe to, and anything else possibly gun-related to show you to be a paranoid gun-loving bloodthirsty killer. Not much you can do at that point. Just make sure it's a good shoot in the first place and you'll be ok. |

My dc has the latin phrase: Si vis pacem, para bellum

One of the instructors at the CCW course advised against using any of that "Zombie Killer" ammo for pretty much the same reason. Get a DA to present it at trial as proof of an unbalanced gun lover itching to shoot zomeone. (<-- intentional typo)

View Quote Yep, for those of us with multiple calibers in the standard Ar platform this helps to not screw up. It's not so much for me as I also color code the furniture (fde is 5.56, black is 300blk, 762x25 tok is foliage green ect) but it's for the wife or somebody else like a dumb ass bil.

View Quote about 2 hours were spent on george zimmer having a round in the chamber, several witnesses were called to ask if this was normal to include asking the bailiff, and a sky marshal if they carried with a round in the chamber. another hour of so was spent on questions about the gun and if it was altered in any way, and / or if it operated the way it was designed to from the factory. who knows how it would look in court. maybe you win, maybe the state has a hard on for you and may that "surprise cockfag" is enough for that magic 51%. |

I have a laser engraver here at work and to engrave that kind of thing of a dust cover takes me *LITERALLY* ten seconds. What does a unlasered dust cover cost? $2? Put some cheesy laser etching on it, it's a $25 dust cover now!!! |

They tried to make a big deal out of the fact that he had not one but TWO flashlights on his person. One of them was a key chain light. They keep harping on the BIG black flashlight he was carrying that was all of 6" long. They tried to make a big deal out of the fact the gun did not have a safety. When they asked the air marshall friend if he would have shot sir skittels he said he would have shot him twice which was they then tried to use against Zimmerman because he only shot once. They tried to say that if sir skittles was a real threat George would have shot twice. 8nBAIT |
