Edit: Here's a shocker. How does the hunting community regard these pseudo war toys? Sure enough it's an issue.Originally Posted by limitles
Chillax dude and lock the ammo up. First off, I admitted my Field and Scream subscription lapsed long ago. So, jump on a technical distinction between clip and magazine and file it away as a win. Multiple uses does not mean that you can blow the head off a gopher, sewer rat or a deer, so try again.
In your diatribe, you failed to list the multiple uses for this "gun". Yeah I know there are only two (if you're not in the military) but I wondered if you could invent another.
This photo of yours interests me. It's no different than photos from the middle east where the weapon is surrounded by photos of Muslim clerics and the Koran. Real tough.
Do you wrap yourself in the flag when you hunt? If not, then why lay these weapons on such a background?
Congrats on overkill going forward whether it's in the wild or the woods.
Is your blind equipped with heat and a fridge?

"While I own both an AR-15 and a Mini-14, I've never seen them as hunting weapons. (They aren't legal to hunt with in PA anyway). With high capacity magazines, both have the ability to put 4 to 6 times the rounds downrange of the typical both action rifle in about the same amount of time. I'd like to think that all hunters have the self-restraint and ethics shown by lawman 328 when he loads 3 rounds in the AK but...
Since I don't know, are there problems in states that allow hunting with semi-auto rifles with "hunters" pulling the "spray and pray" in the deer woods? I hear that here sometimes during the opening day of the PA rifle season whith 2 or 3 hunters blasting a dozen shots as some running deer tail. What would keep these guys from putting 20-30-40 rounds out there in a state that allows semi's?
It seems that this would hurt us in the eyes of the general public to have the opening day of rifle season in PA sound more like dawn in Fallujuh."
So yeah, I'm really plastered and talking out of my ass again.
And another thing. Spare the bullshit idea that this gun is actually designed to lessen the suffering of prey.
As long as people have hunted, the potential for missing the target and/or wounding it had it's consequences.
While hunting is not intended to produce a level playing field such hardware equates to shooting fish in a barrel
