Well, here you go:
[quote:935c1]When the pin hits the round, it ignites the powder inside the round. This explosion creates the gas pressure needed to push the bullet down and out the barrel at an extremely high velocity. A hole, called a gas port, is located within the barrel for the purpose of allowing some expanding gas to flow through the slot and ram a piston-like device back against the bolt. This action pushes the bolt behind the magazine and accomplishes two desired results: first, it extracts the used round by a process that unlocks the casing from the bolt, then expels the casing out of the ejection port. Second, as the gas escapes, the bolt slides back and picks up another round. The process occurs within a split second and repeats until the last round of the magazine is used. The barrel is lined with rifling, or a twisted scoring down the barrel, which puts a spin on the bullet when it exits the barrel. This improves the accuracy of the round and is comparable to the spiral that a quarterback puts on a football.[/quote:935c1]

[quote="Pick Axe":93d1d]Well, An M-16 doesn't have one. And I have every right to shoot a gun in a safe way.[/quote:93d1d]
That was written onto the American constitution in a time when the people could keep the government in tact if they went sour. I don't think a civillian uprising with weapons would do much against a M1 Abrams or an Apache nowadays. Its outdated. Hense no need for it. Gun toting fanatics don't go crazy on me but doesn't the M 16 like the AK 47 run on a piston ?. Why not just take that out ? I have no problem with collecting guns if they are neutrlized. Guns and People kill people. You can't just blameo ne or the other.

1st off you dont have a clue
2nd I doubt if it ever came to it and we crazy Americans decided it was time to overthrow our govt that the soldiers (who are our sons,daughters brothers and sisters) would fire upon American people
3rd Lawful guns are used for just that, lawful purposes
4th I will enable myself to protect myself and family from thugs
5th you said the "American" gun companies were importing guns into Canada- well that is just non sense. Criminals are importing the guns and they are from manufactures all over the world, not just the US
6th It is sad that that kind of violence happened at your school
guns always get the blame when it is the people behind them that cause the problem. i know you will say "well if there wernt any guns then this wouldnt happen" that arguement doesnt hold water. It would be the same as saying if you outlawed cars that would stop drunk driving
flame away!!!!! hellfire:

Your more likely to kill a family member then a so called thug. Its a fact.

Most of these street weapon showing up in Toronto are American made. Almost all of them buddy.

Exactly what I was trying to say. The idea is obserd. Why is that right put on your fucking constitution. ? Law wasn't as organized back then and out in the west or out on your farm you needed a gun to survive. They had no idea that weapons of such destruction such as a, automatic weapon firing 9mm death would come about. (Tech 9) It was made in a different time for different situations. Times have changed so have guns. They are more lethal and not a neccasry thing for your average city slicker family. Recreational use for hunting is fine but why should hunting we a potenial weapon to kill someone or being able to buy an m-16 or Tech 9 be a right ? Why the fuck do you need that kind of right ? Amend your constitution and get this over with. You don't need the weapon and if you want to show it off then make sure it can't fire. If you really need to unleash an automatic weapon the join the Army, they have lots !. Almost all 1st World Nation have already seen the obvious flaw in letting citizens have automatic weapons and have taken this insane so called right away.
[quote:7f3fc]3rd Lawful guns are used for just that, lawful purposes[/quote:7f3fc]
-The guns bought for columbine were lawful.
-Andrew golden and his Friend used lawful guns to use fellow students as target practice after they pulled the fire alarm.
The fact is these events most likely either wouldn't have happned or would not have been as severe as they wre if such weapon were banned.
[quote:7f3fc]6th It is sad that that kind of violence happened at your school
[/quote:7f3fc]
Ya it is sad. But if you had strickter gu laws in America then it would never have happned. ome kid would never have almost ave been killed. Which he could have. Life takes priority over a falty right.
-Then their is the arguement that the black market will get those guns into the US and their is no hope in fighting them because no matter what they will win..... LOet look at Canada until recently Automatic weapon working and ready to kill with Amunition were next to impossible to find. The weapons that were around for gangs to use were baseball batts machettes, No gang shootings gang fatalities were almost non existent etc. The fact is they had no guns.
This is logic not some exteme left view. The fact is most gun toting People don't want to give their guns up just because they are theirs. They go fanatical and turn it into the issue as if your trying to take a real right from them. A gun isn't a right, Its a Priveledge. Automatic weapons aren't needed at all.
Gun maniacs flare away.

I've never even been hunting, dude. I use my guns for target practice. So if you count bags of flour as "game", i guess I have. I also want them around in case some bastard tries to hurt my family or break into our property. I'm not a fanatic. My, and the extreme majority of all gun-owners, uses for guns are completely safe, legitimate, LEGAL, and (the reason I do it) it's FUN. And, the 2nd admendment is not there to give us grounds for attacking our government. It is made to allow us to have state mallitias and a armed population in case of an attack by an outside force. I know that is unlikely, but, like I said, there are other reasons I own guns.

Why do you need to go to the range. ? Ive lived my whole life and survived without going ot a range. The thing is your placing the fact that you going to the range is more important then people getting shot up and dieing. A little "fun" as you put it isn't worth the lives. Go and tell that to any of the family's involved in Columbine. Im sure they will tell you about how much your fun cost them..

It is a hobby, mother fucker. Ever heard of that? You want to tell me that because I shoot a target, kids get killed in school? You're a fucking moron.
How many people were killed last year with guns in america? I bet more people were killed in car accidents, probably even just drunk driving. So, we should also outlaw cars, and start another prohibition? Your a Dumb Ass. You're just trying to jump on the left wing bandwagon without looking at the issue first.
