So how does one shoot for life, as opposed to death? Magic bullets?

I am very much against gun control, but this is not what bothers me about this video.

What bothers me about it is that a person like this, who has no knowledge of the subject matter, actually introduces legislation that has an effect on something very important. It would be like someone born&raised in Manhattan to introduce legislation that regulates cotton farming. Sure, you can learn about a subject matter, but as this video shows, legislators clearly don't bother.

This video was hilariously sad.

The gun grabbers could maybe use this. The made up terminology to scare people is very lowbrow.

I dunno? I did my first shooting as a requirement for POST training. Outscored my friend who loaned me the 38 to qualify.

Just showed some property to a guy who bought an AR15 for deer hunting. Really? Learn to shoot!

I also have a friend that shoots F5 competition. 1000 yards. Let me fire a few rounds downrange. No X's but on the target for all rounds.

So what? An AR15 is just a modern sporting rifle. The .223 round is extremely useful for hunting smaller deer. What do you want him to use? A bolt action .308? Plenty of hunters use AR15s

Quals for post and hitting a moving target that is firing back at you are two very different things.

Plus an ar15 is an excellent deer gun here in ca with our small deer. Plus it is ergonomic ally correct and light weight. All the things a hunter would look for.

Also, long range shooting is about your dope, your friend did the hard part (getting the rifle sighted in for range/wind), the trigger pullin is the easy part.

I have a bunch of Deer guns and I built a 6.5 Grendel for my boy because the recoil is manageable. He's 12 and lil guys can't handle the big stuff.

Banning so called '' high capacity '' magazines is pointless, on any gun. I can reload a magazine into an automatic rifle (automatic does not mean full blast machine gun btw, for those who are uneducated on the subject) in less than 3 seconds, most people can, just carry extra magazines. So really the magazine bans serve no purpose.
