I bought a Stag Arms AR-15 yesterday. AR's are about impossible to find. I found another AR, DPMS that I may pick up too. Good investment.

I renewed my NRA membership recently. 

I'm one of those right wing, radical nut jobs that still believes in the Bill of Rights.  I know that sounds crazy, and old fashioned.  I don't know why, but I'm just not embracing slavery as well as a lot of my countrymen.  I'm stubborn like that.

Fortunately, I saw this storm brewing about 6 months ago so I finished my latest build before the prices went nuts.  I'm seeing new Colt AR15s going for $2300.  That is insane.

I think we're safe for now as far as gun rights go, but I fear for the next generation.  I hope people educate their children on just how important this (and the entire Bill of Rights) is.

Brand new, 4 boxes of ammo, and 3 clips for $1,100. From an ex husband of a friend. He has one more, a DPMS Oracle for $1100. I got the Stag because of what I researched on them and their lifetime warranty. I act wait to shoot it.

Got guns and will keep them. You never know when a mofo might try and break in to your house.

That's a good price in this environment.  Don't let anyone at the shooting range hear you calling your magazines "clips" though.  Dudes will get on your case for that.  Just a heads up.

Yep makes me laugh when ever I hear these dbags on CNN talk about 30 round "clips".
Even that dumb slut Feinstein calls them clips.  At least know the proper name of what you are attempting to ban.

The NRA doesn't support the rights of gun owners.  It supports the rights of Gun Makers.

Yea I felt lucky as hell. I have been on a few waiting lists but I would have never seen one. I think I am going o grab the DPMS he has left as well. Just money is tight after the holidays and I am salary and get paid once a month.

It's interesting that you brought up slavery, seeing as how we had to get a constitutional amendment to end it.

Funny how folks seem to have figure out how the NRA works.

News Flash - It have a Board of Directors, many of whom have no active connections to the firearms industry outside of the NRA, or have active gripes within it.

Secondly, the NRA-ILA is the people's end of the NRA, that is the end that helps push through CCW reforms, helps citizens fight for reform of certain firearms laws, etc...... It also sets up hunters eduction classes, regular firearms safety classes, provides legal counseling, etc.....

There is also an active arm of the NRA for conservation of Wetlands, public game areas, etc.... That is this end -

http://www.nrahunterrights.org/Default.aspx .

Also they have a presence at antique arms collectors shows, etc..... that have no connection to to the modern arms industry. They are not just an industry mouthpiece, all though the industry does have their ear sometimes.

It's a symbiotic relationship between the the industry, regular gun owners, and the NRA brass, it may not be perfect, but it works.

Thank you,

Please disregard the ignorant and naive.


We don't lose our rights because there are criminals.

I'm glad we are having a discussion about the slavery of blacks in America.  How do you think things would have gone back when slave traders were trying to round up all those negros if they had the means to fight back?  Something tells me that they wouldn't have been too eager to jump on those slave ships.  They would have resisted.  Thanks for proving my point about guns for me. 

Unlike white liberals, I don't cower in shame when someone mentions slavery.  I'm proud of my country.  We didn't invent slavery.  The righteous people here in the USA stood up and demanded an end to slavery.  It took 600,000 dead Americans to buy their freedom.  What other nation had the courage to fight that battle and pay such a heavy price in order to do what was right?  The good guys won so forgive me for not playing along with your little game.

  When you survey the world today ... when a child dies in this world of preventable disease every two seconds, when the economic system of this world must destroy the Earth simply for that system to survive; when you see all the wars, and when you see all the pain, and when you see all the suffering, is it a force of love and wisdom and tolerance that is in control of this planet?

I'm supporting the NRA for supporting Obama's new Obamaguns program, which will provide guns for EVERY American. 

This was the dream of the Founding Fathers.

Or didn't it take 600 000 dead Americans to keep the United States as a single entity?

The war was about stopping the Confederate Sates from breaking away.

Slavery was not sustainable anyway, it would have fizzed out on its own accord. The South's focus was on agriculture while the North's was industrial, they would have been forced to change out of necessity anyway.
