Post the biggest BS story you've ever heard.
Oh yeah, M-16's stamped "Mattel" and the ubiquitous "I shot me as deer at over 1000 yards!" have already been taken. |

taliban fighters using 50 BMGs purchased in US.
here is a GREAT one. some dumb bitch was telling people around here her daughter was on an airliner (during antrax scares) that had a antrax attack. thier was white poweder everywhere, and she had to get cipro(or whatever the hell its called). she was OUTRAGED that the news was ignoring this inncident, even though 200 some people got pulmonary antrax over it. the WORST part of this story is the fact that i had to spend an hour convincing somone that it isnt true. |

I've heard that people think George W. Bush is actually pro-gun.
Now THAT'S a bunch of bullshit! |

Whats the story about Mattle toy. Was it that Mattle was contracted to produce the stock and handguards for the early models? Thats what I heard on TV about a show on M16s.

I am a security guard at the mall. I wear ninja shoes (so I can climb the walls), body armor (so the shoppers won't kill me when I'm done for the day), a Glock 18 on my ankle, a Desert Eagle .50 on my side, an MP5K with a grenade launcher mounted underneath slung on my back,and I carry around a briefcase which has a concealed full auto MAC10 like James Bond has. I have this really cool job.

I had just one of those M16's ,and it wasn't made by mattel. I was made by intel, and it got you with trojan virus 2 round bursts,yeh you had to reboot for it to get you.......bad s/it too....

I have one of those Mattel M16s with the bullet flipper modification on the front (AKA flash suppressor), which flips the bullet when leaving the gun, hitting the target and tearing off large body parts.

Well, my rifled shotgun shoots those new Sabot bullets that will turn to hit the target every time!! The bullet also bounces around inside the chest cavity for max tissue damage, but can pierce armored Hummers too, while watching out for little children.

heard at a gun show:
"that's an FN upper" "i was a Navy-SEAL-Ranger-Recon" "that mag is the choice of israeli commandos" |

I once shot a deer that was 150yds away with a shotgun, using birdshot, cuz I was bird hunting!
I've actually heard stories like this a few times!! |

Things will be a lot better for the workers if the employees can deal directly with the company, without interference from the union.
I've used these 3: I love you. The check's in the mail. I won't come in your mouth. If we pass this gun law, we'll all be safer. There are no plans to lay anyone off. We're going to buy out HK. I'm taking full responsibility for Waco. FBI did not fire. They had a drug lab in there. We dropped a carton and where it broke you could see a grenade inside. They had automatic weapons. They were abusing the children. It was just Nichols and McVeigh. Republican John McCain. |

Some of my favorites:
We can still be friends. I didn't mean for it to happen, it just did. Secure against unexpected movement. (If you are securing against it, then you expected it to move, so it's not unexpected.... never mind.) We can have an amicable divorce. |

All good...!
But my favorites are: ' yeah.. I was in 'nam, special forces...' And 'really hun..... just one more (rifle)....' |

View Quote Understanding this helps a bit if you know what Intel has been doing. Your M16 is also equipped with floating point of aim (FPOA) sights, so it is impossible to predict where the bullet will go. Your rifle is the first batch of the current generation of rifles, which means that it is much slower than the second batch. They did that because they couldn't get the faster version out on schedule, so they just released what they had. You will feel ripped off when it comes to light what they did, but HEY, you shoulda known! They also were building a new reserch and development facility in the middle of downtown, but decided to stop when the money crunch came. They didn't even have enough money to bolt down the pile of guns they had on site; hence, this is where the "guns on the street" problem came from. The preceeding satire was written for your entertainment, and should not be construed as a strict interpretation of reality. [;D] |

#1) That pearl harbor was a "surprise attack".
#2) That Lee Harvey Oswald shot JFK alone. #3) That Lon Horiuchi committed no crime. #4) That ATF "had" to do a tactical raid on the branch davidians. #5) That the FBI "had" to gas the above davidians. #6) That the sole cause of the crash of flt 800 was a "center fuel tank explosion". #7) That the only reason the Arabs hit wtc was because they don't "like" us. #8) That gun control is "for the children", and to protect us from "criminals". #9) That the "war on drugs" is really about drugs.

Quoted: I once shot a deer that was 150yds away with a shotgun, using birdshot, cuz I was bird hunting! I've actually heard stories like this a few times!! View Quote My best friend has actually done that! Well kinda - it wasn't at 150 yds, but he did kill a deer with birdshot when he was out pheasant hunting. He apparently startled the deer and it ran out right in front of him and he had a lucky shot. I know it because when I dropped by his house the deer was hanging in a tree by his front door. I guess it's the "150 yards" that makes the story ludicrous. More on-topic, I just love the shit that people tell you when they think you don't know anything about guns. Gun shops and gun shows are particularly good for this. Recently I was told at a gunstore that the FAL they were transferring to me could have been a good rifle, except that it was too heavy. |

Recently at a gun show, I saw a post-ban Colt Match Target rifle, without any "evil" features, marked as "pre-ban $2000"!!!
Isn't it illegal to mark it as something that it isn't? |

Any story that starts with,
"This is a no-shitter". You know the difference between a sea-stroy and a fairy tale? The fairy tale begins with, "Once upon a time" and a sea-story begins with, "This is a no-shitter". |

that pic your trying to post is false. their was been lengthy discussions here. i belive it was settled by a statement by whatever entinty tested the m16 from the beginning. thier was never any part of ar ar15 made by mattel. they called it mattel cause all the plastic and the a1 pencil barrel looked like a toy.

My favorite: "I'm from the government and I'm here to help you."
Two I heard at work: "There's no such thing as a .41 Magnum. Only a .357 & a .44" (Hmmm, then WTF's that revolver in my gun safe?) and "I sighted in my .50 caliber muzzleloader last night. Sighted in 1/2" high at 100 yards with Buffalo bullets, it's dead on at 200..." (On the moon????) [:D] |

Last weekend at a gun show in Tulsa, I saw a gun dealer trying to sell a Tec 9 with a barrel extension for $1100.
I guess was the barrel extension that made it cost so much. [smash] |

Some older gentleman calls our shop, my boss answers the phone.
"Do you have ammunition for the english rifle?" My boss thinking it must an Enfield variation since they are the most common "english" rifle here.... "If you have some variation of the Enfield rifle, then yes we have .303 British ammunition" "No no...this the Westinghouse...made in New England" Well...at this point my boss was already thinking there must be a good story in this one. [:)] "Yes, we have the 7.62x53R ammunition for that rifle" "Ill come around and buy some then, bye" "Your welcome" The man comes to the shop, buys some ammo, then proceeds to tell the story about the "english" rifle. "Well, when i bought this rifle, i got a call from the police chief to come by the station, i was thinking i might be in somekind of trouble. The chief said he personally asked me to come since i had such a rare rifle" and then the guy told that the chief had said only 200 rifles were shipped here, 20 stayed in country, the rest were turned from the harbor. Well, the story gets better, apparently the rifles were made prior to the Normandy invasion...you know for Hitler´s demise...lmao My boss didnt want to take one Westinghouse from the shelf and point out the manufacture date of 1916, the Allies must have had a crystal ball to spot Hitlers intentions that early [:D] Another great common urban legends concern the Sten SMG, most of these originate from our army. The best ones are; -It has no rifling and is very dangerous to shoot. -Each man carried 5 or 6 of these at the Normandy invasion, with mags welded in place....????????WTF -The SMGs sold to our army were collected from the French coast..... |

These are all good...
Real BS story I heard... I went skeet shooting with a .38 (snub-nose) and hit every one of them. |

This is a no shitter...A deer shot me from 1000 yards away. Bullet ricocheted off my canteen, hit that can of beans and motherfuckers my dad gave me as a war souvenir, and took the pop-top clean off the can of Budweiser I had taped to the front of my LBE. I just fell down and started drinking.

1. Deadly accruate Mini14's
2. We must ban 50cal rifle's deadly accurate at 2 mile's away. (Bullit may go that far but not deadly accurate). 3. 50cal BMG conversions for the AK47! 4. Barrette purposly sold 50cal rifles to osama! when in fact it was the Government who was the one's that sold them along with other things like stinger missle's. 5. california gun laws will stop crime. |

Our Navy has been attacked by north vietnam-LBJ.
OK-what do I win!!! What I'd really like is a S&W 39-2. |
|
AR15 and M16s are not accurate because they have bent firing pins, thus causing the bullet to tumble. An engineer told me that!

It's a little off-topic, but I get this from the dread-heads up here all the time: "If you cut all the trees down, the planet will run out of oxygen." I've done the math, and it don't work that way.
