Minus the uniforms, training, discipline etc.

Why are the guys 'down on one knee?'

Using the Durango as sort-of-cover?

I still don't know what is actually going on here.

They wanted to make it look like the group was trying to scare the mother's .... who were in a restaurant and couldn't even see the group in the parking lot.

So they used an angle that didn't show the mother's with children or the smiling, posed people.

Didn't fit the narrative they were trying to sell the media.

A lot of folks that don't like the 2nd amendment aren't fond of that whole "Freedom to Assemble" thing either it seems.

This was orchestrated by Ms. Watts, you know the same PR woman that told us GMOs were good for all our kids a few years ago and is now telling us nobody needs guns and she runs a "Gun Safety" organization.

He probably just saw it in an Everytown or MDA press release, thought it looked evil enough for his twisted narrative, read their story lead and ran with it.

Not that truth or honesty matter to some folks here about.

Kind of like the host of the other group that doesn't bother checking the story dates or reading the complete stories they post here? So we wind up with 2 years old stories that have been debunked and withdrawn by "far right wing sources" like the New York Times and Daily Kos.

The burden of proof is on you to prove that they were a threat to the other people in the restaurant, simply carrying a weapon concealed or openly is not proof of a threat.

I fully expect Zimmerman to end up in prison after his second murder, as well.

I defend her right prior to that to her right to legally protest even if I do not agree. You are the one that wants to skip out without paying because you are so scared of something happening. I just asked a simple question if anything has EVER happened during an open carry protest. You can't, lol

None of that is support for murder, despite your chronic lies otherwise.

Common sense dictates a future where everybody has 30 guns or nobody has any, the one where nobody has any is vastly superior in every way.

This is basically what we have now.

30 guns for every person, not quite I know.

Not all "Moms" fit your simple minded, Bloomberg financed, anti gun model.

Many of them are also excellent shots and don't need a whiny bunch of weasels to tell them what they can or can't do.

Reminds me I need to practice when I get back from work.

I don't know why it reminds you of that. One is a guy on a range firing a pistol, and the other is a group of people outside in a group photo. I guess you just have the sort of mind that makes those simple parallels between unlike scenarios. Very unfortunate.

Damn, I almost forgot, I just ordered 4 33rnd Korean mags for my glock. Got them at a steal for 10 bucks per. Not a literal steal, mind you. I didn't run out of the store with them when someone walked in or anything...

Are you interested in getting a glock 19 or something? You should. Great guns.

What is that, 15 yards? It looks like a 15 yard range based on the markers on the right hand side. My other question is whether or not the Glock is stock, not that it really matters as that dude can really shoot.

It's a well engineered gun. Recoil is minimal and straight back. Trigger is a little heavier than a 17/19, but more crisp. It shoots like its big brother.

It won't take 17/19/26/34 mags as the 43 is a single stack. I also own and shoot a 17, which is a little too big for deep concealment.
