I'm an AR toting Leftist Liberal.

I'm left-handed and I spray liberally. More bullets covers more surface area.

Seriously though, the OP pix show two rifles that shoot the same ammo but you cant tell at what rate of fire by looking at the pix alone. One would have to fire both to tell the diff. Further, there are hundreds of thousands of full auto AKs/ARs left in america from the 80s. So, still wouldnt know the diff. Btween full-auto, semi-auto, or single shot capability by looking at pix by themselves.

I'm Sorry?

British Army Warrant Officer Class I (W.O.1) - Nato rank OR9
United States Army Command Sergeant Major - Nato rank OR9
United States Marine Corps Master Gunnery Sergeant - Nato rank OR9

So, let's turn this around..

"Did you know that in the United States Army a Command Sergeant Major is considered lower than a United States enlisted... " Well, do you know i didn't know that? I would have said that you were your wrong. I've been on operations with US Army and USMC many times over the years and i've always been under the impression that senior Sergeants were thought of higher than that. I've always held them in the highest regard and respected their professionalism anyway.

Well, i'm sure you know best...

Sorry that is just so much BS........ I have no idea how you can think this.... Read up on the Gun Controll Act of 1968.

Non one could even register these if they existed. That gun Controll Act ended any chance of any thing even getting grandfathered.... One day a 50 cal WW-2 vintage machuine gun was legal and the next day if it wasn't registered it was not and a ticket straight to club Fed.

If you really are a lefty shooter learn your facts....

Accuracy, is not the gun....it's person, plain and simple....nothing more nothing less...
Is that your answer? LOL I was looking for something a lot more elusive than that.

With that said looky heya; I am a lefty too


I was in my 30's then.....

Disclaimer: The camera is on my tripod, and no one is standing behind it. Also this IS a flintlock, and anyone can see the frizzen/ battery/ pan cover is OPEN, so there is no way this gun could go off, even if it had been loaded.

So, I'll start it's own thread and see what people really know about guns.

So, let's have it.....are these guns the same or not?

They are BOTH same caliber.....

I get really tired of people seeing a black looking weapon and all of a sudden it is bad, over the top, and hideous looking without having a clue as to what they are even talking about.

So please, gun guys chime in, but lets have the people who want to really limit the rights of us law abiding citizens answer.

How about one is designed to hunt and the other is designed to kill people? One is a semi automatic and can be set to automatic and the other is not? I'm not a anti-gun person but I do have some common sense

BtW, since you wanted to paint a wide brush regarding liberals and guns, can you tell the difference between a Sunni muslim and a ****e Muslim? I'm pretty sure that republicans can't either.

I like this game

Can you tell the difference between

Makes about as much sense as the premise of your thread.
