Tlak, I AM asking for opinions... no I am not trying to just voice mine, amigo.. Like I said, that's how you get ideas. I have ideas, yes, but if I dont get others input and prospective then it is close minded. Like I said your opinion is 5, mine is a different number and so on. Everyone has a different idea.
I am not sure that limiting to a number will work. I think that someone that hoards guns waiting 'for the big one' is maybe going to far.
I don't have an answer... just a question..
I never saw a reason for the .50 in civilian hands. I have used it in combat but other than vehicles it is really overkill. It's primary design is antivehicle and equipment. Using it on personnel becomes legally reiky because of the Geneva Convention. Not to say it isn't used, it is.
It is much easier to get combat arms (selective fire capable) in overseas markets than the US. It is actually pretty hard to get guns in and out of the country legally or not. One thing the gun laws did do was cut down the ability for legally sold firearms to be made into full automatic. There is no reason to have that capability although it can legally be had. It costs a ton of money but a reasonable, law abiding person can own one. That is the great part of america. You can do it within the law. So getting the law to recognize the needs of different people is hard but hopefully we can make it possible.
Does it sound like I am being unreasonable or just wanting to hear myself talk? I was just trying to get an idea of peoples different point of view..

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
