  • gun =/= capacity or magazine. Some guns have an internal magazine or capacity such as a shotgun or some rifles, or a revolver, which you load rounds directly into and there is a max as the capacity is built in and is usually 6 or less. Other guns require a magazine which feeds loads into it. It's an external part. It can vary wildly in capacity.

    • Okay, then let me correct myself. *Guns and gun accessories* Although like I said, that's not the pinpoint of my argument.

      She was talking about: "You want to make my handgun which holds 9 rounds only hold 6." So I was partially replying to that.

      • She's asking you to buy her a special 6 round magazine since you want to make the standard clip for her gun obsolete and illegal. Are you going to pay to retrofit every gun and gun accesory that holds more than 6 rounds?

        And heh...I am sitting on too many 30 round clips for my AR-15 to even count. I could go buy hundreds of them tomorrow if I wanted to. There are too many out there to even make a difference at this point. And I also have a double barrel 12 gauge that only holds two shots that will cut you in half even if I miss. You don't know what you're talking about.

        • I didn't even bother mentioning my AR that sits in the corner of my room with a 30 round clip loaded with 25 rounds at all time.

        • I specifically said that it would only be for the purchase of products after a certain date and to make illegal the resale of ones that are circulating.

          Did you even read my post?

          Secondly, I also said twice now that it wasn't the pinpoint of my argument. I don't care about the 6 shot thing specifically. I don't know enough about guns to make that call. I don't know what you're trying to prove.

          I was mainly opposing the logic she was using to make her argument.

          If I was trying to debate gun mechanics with you, I'm sure you'd win over me in that debate. But I am talking about the logic behind regulations and why people shouldn't just blow off the proposal of a regulation when it comes to firearms.

          • "But I am talking about the logic behind regulations and why people shouldn't just blow off the proposal of a regulation when it comes to firearms."

            Ah yes, the good ol' logic coming from people who don't know anything about guns.

            It would be illogical to NOT blow you off, moron. You don't know ANYTHING about guns, current gun laws, gun owners or anything. Your ingenius solution is to limit round capacity yet you don't even know how this works as policy, mechanically and practically.

            The voice of reason and logic right here....

            • Dude... you need to seriously re-read what I wrote. I specifically said my argument did not have to do with round capacity. I don't care about the six shot thing in particular. Fair enough? Just to be clear, I didn't create this post. I am not the OP. I didn't come up with the six shot thing.

              This is typical. All I hear from people who try to bash me in gun arguments is "Moron, idiot, ignorant, don't know what you're talking about.. etc" But you only say those things because there aren't too many good arguments against what I am saying. I think my approach is pretty reasonable, which is why there isn't much you can say about it. It's really pretty neutral.

              You try to bash my argument based on my qualifications rather than the substance.

              • I've read and reread your responses and I can't find the substance. Obviously with 20k laws and there are still tragic shootings laws aren't the answer.

                And just to be clear I'm far from a "gun nut". Not a NRA member. I enjoy target shooting and hunting with my friends. I also enjoy knowing I won't be a victim. I break no gun laws and am not a danger to any one that isn't trying to hurt me. More laws like you suggest would only serve to make me a law breaker.
