In reply to the discussion: Why does anybody need more than 7 bullets at a time? [View all]longship
(40,416 posts)46. Fine, I accept that.
But it would still be a level playing field if every competitor has a seven round clip, which was my only point.
Frankly, I really don't care if competition shooting uses ten round, or 100 round clips. I just don't want the big clips on the streets.
Where the line is drawn is subject to discussion. But, I don't think competition shooting is a good argument for high capacity clips. You may disagree, and I am fine with that.
If DU has to have all these gun threads in GD, I would rather have a friendly, respectful discussions on the issues.

Yeap, and a fast runner can do almost 30 feet in 1.5 seconds from start so that seems about right..

The correct question is whether an individual's interest in having more than 7 bullets is outweighed

So Hugabear's opposition to people having firearms that hold more than 7 rounds is hypocritical

You might want to ask a cop why his Glock has more than 7 bullets in it at all times. n/t
