4. You know, I like guns and shooting.
I really like reloading and shooting my own ammo. I like shooting handguns. That said, all this is, is a sex toy for people that I believe shouldn't be allowed near a weapon. Besides, if a cop caught you with that on your person, your next stop would be at a proctologist, in our present police and justice climate.

Just a big square butt plug that goes bang, bang, bang, very quickly.

6. I agree
I like guns too, but this is hardly necessary or even useful as far as I can tell. It's just an over-sized semi-automatic Glock with a flashlight.

11. Uh-uh.
Full-auto is one of it's features. I checked. Of course, somewhere right now, some knucklehead is fapping himself mangled over this thing:

"Hey, we can carry in our state! Why not full-auto? Hillhillhill." Well...uhhh...because people like you would be the ones carrying full-auto, Slappy? "But it's my god-given right as an American to hose down a room in 2 seconds, Hillhillhill". You see. Slappy? There you go.

18. I probably should have figured it was.
It's a nifty gadget, but if I thought I needed an automatic weapon I think I'd also want to have at least 2 or 3 20-30 round clips. If I'm going that far I might as well get a short barreled automatic rifle and be done with it.

It is kinda sexy, but it seems it'd be most useful to the James Bond's of the world rather than dog walkers or people like me.

Just after I read your reply I saw a tragic story on CNN's website where a man accidentally shot and killed his grandson when the trigger of his rifle got snagged on a branch. What a terrible thing for all and I imagine that poor grandfather is in a living hell right now. No safety?
The headline of the story stated he accidentally shot his grandson with an "AK-47 assault rifle". I thought, "here we go". Came over here and sure as shootin' there's a flamefest going on in GD. It's that whole "assault rifle" mix-up that I suppose will never, ever, get cleared up.

Here's the link if you want to get worked up. I haven't really checked it out yet, but I know it'll be the same old, same old. http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x3439240

20. It is, in a James Bondy kinda way.
I mistakenly thought it was just a semi-auto with a stock and flashlight. Now I know it's full-auto.

13. Funny, I would never buy this
And hopefully I will never need a gun, but I would play with this if someone brought me to a range and let me

15. Well, yeah. A couple of clips down the pipe.
But walk the dog with it? Where do these chuckleheads think people live? 80's Beirut?

16. Maybe that's their target market
Glock sells real well in Israel out in the settlements.

5. Well,
it sure would relieve me of lugging around my B.A.R. whenever I walk the dog or check the mail.

12. I know what you mean.
I'm getting older and I think that the M-60 that I have been hauling on my laundromat runs has given me an umbilical hernia.

19. That is for military and law enforcement only...
it would be Title 2/Class III restricted two different ways, because it has less than a 16" barrel and because it is an automatic weapon. As a result, if it ever hits the market, possession by anyone other than a soldier, law enforcement officer, government employee, or their suppliers would be a 10-year Federal felony.

21. It's things like this that make me say, "God bless America." I could really use something like this
whenever a tourist asks me where the Empire State Building is located.
