I can see that happening, CTD always sells magazines for sale, maybe it is time to buy a few hundred more if something comes up.

Gun control was very effective for Hitler, Stalin, and Mao. After they disarmed the masses, it was easy to kill millions and millions who failed to please them.

In order to be a truly effective murderer, you have to be elected.

that is the state goverment telling you how to make you feel safer, and to make the goverment feel safer from you the citizen of mass.

does having your firearms locked up downstairs make you feel safer when you have a home invasion? i know it would not for me. that is why I always have cocked and locked 3 firearms in every room of my home.

except for the bathrooms, only have a stainless steel revolver in each of my 2 bathrooms.

What? Are you forgetting this is supposed to be a FREE country and the government works for us and NOT the other way around like they are trying to make us believe???

Keep an empty chamber under the trigger so you don't accidentally shoot your toe (or so other appendage...) off.
