Are you preparing for not-so-good-times ahead

It's better to learn to live the austere lifestyle under your own terms, than under the gun of some military junta.

It is also a good idea to agree with whatever it is that the man holding the machine gun is saying

Which is why it's probably a good idea to have a gun of your own. That way your opinion matters just as much.

Diplomacy is so much easier when you have overwhelming force on your side.

Peace thru superior fire power.

My philosophy on that is, you can have peace or you're gonna have peace, you choose.

Doesn't everyone own a machine gun?
They're not legal in a lot of places but where they are transferable ones are expensive. e.g. an M-16 transferable lower receiver only will run in the neighborhood of $15K. I've said that if I can find one for $10K it will be mine.

It is illegial in our state to have any high powered or military gun (AK's and machines). It would be nice picking off predators with that type of gun!

the upside of living on a army post is ,that we have loads of gun stores near by. They all sell high powered rifles. Incl the infamous "Pats Guns" in Ogden.

Do you mean fully automatic?

I understand a gunsmith can change a semi-automatic to an automatic pretty easily. But fully automatic weapons are not legal in most U.S. states.

A semi-automatic rifle can be shot pretty fast. You only have maybe 30 to 50 rounds in a magazine. With an automatic rifle, probably three or four squeezes on the trigger and the magazine is empty.

I can't see spending $10,000 on even a whole gun, much less just the lower receiver.

But I also have never liked the military-style rifles. I prefer a bolt-action rifle in .270, .308 or .30/06 with a scope. I will be able to hit someone with an AK, AR or M-16 before they get close enough to use their rifle.

You can also get something like a Ruger Mini-14 .223 Ranch Rifle that is semi-automatic and has a magazine feed. You can get 30-round magazines for it. You should be able to buy one of those rifles for less than $500.

If you would let me, i could spend 35k+ on just one!!!! It would be a 1870's Gatling gun.
