What are you going to do with it if you ever finish it?


Im sure he is going to simply "collect it".

He builds it, and then collects it?? "RogernN, maker of collectible
poodle-shooters."


Why do you call it a poodle shooter? The US military didn't use them to
shoot poodles. The army manual says they can be effective out to 600 yards.
I already have many rifles that aren't on the "assault weapons ban" list,
I'm wanting the guns that gun grabbers don't want me to have.


No the Army determined that aimed fire, for all the talk about it, was
very seldom used in battle and that the number of causalities was in
direct proportion to the number of shots fired and that the longer
range capabilities of the 30-06 or 308 were almost never used in
actual combat which usually takes place at much shorter distances and
finally that a soldier can carry a lot more light ammunition than he
can heavy.

You can research this yourself as the information is in the public
domain.


True enough in most of the last wars. However..the Military is always
fighting the last war..never the current one.

There is a reason that they have been bringing back the M14 into
combat in the middle east. Except for MOUT operations (in villages
and cities where the M4 is a handy weapon)..the longer reach of the
M14 is very handy.

One simply has to note the number of long range sniper kills out a
very very long way to understand that the terraine makes a big big
difference.

In Vietnam..a long shot in most..most cases was 200 yrds.

The methodology of the left has always been:

1. Lie
2. Repeat the lie as many times as possible
3. Have as many people repeat the lie as often as possible
4. Eventually, the uninformed believe the lie
5. The lie will then be made into some form oflaw
6. Then everyone must conform to the lie
