crying about "them libruls" taking their 30 rd. mags because they absolutely MUST HAVE 30, and 10 is just not enough. (never mind that the British ruled 60% of the face of the Earth for decades using 10rd. mags and bolt action rifles).

"looks stupid in the gun". Yeah, and you look stupid carrying that gun through J.C. Penny, asswipe. I care more about not being shot by a homicidal maniac than I care about than your ability to accessorize your magazine to match your BBQ stained T-shirt and sweatpants with your beer gut hanging out.
