I went on an adventure today, one that started 2 weeks ago. I've just arrived home with this in my hands.

Shown in this picture (and put on shortly after) is the lock, which is what all responsible owners should have. It's my first firearm reciever, and it's a RRA model LAR-15 with a fixed stock, single stage trigger, and sling loop. Hopefully soon, I'll have the parts I need to finish this up and take it to the range.

So, who else here owns a firearm? Similar or different to mine?

ETA: sorry about the quality of the second pic, none of those spots are really there (apparently, the camera's lense is dirty).

If the old jokes about men and guns are true, you're not far wrong...

Why is there so many Gun enthusaists on this thread?. Not that im against them or anything... Just there is an abnormal amount.

*lol
Ok, this just put a picture in my head that just shouldn't be there...

I guessed that there were eight heads in the bag. Guess I was wrong :(

What are these jokes like?

Is it stuff about guys getting their hands on big weapons, thinking about grabbing a heavy gun with both hands, loading it by tenderly pushing firm and well-rounded bullets into the magazine, inserting the magazine slowly into the naked gun, cocking the firearm gently before taking a long, hard look at the erect target at the end of the sight, seeing the target looking back up into the stiff barrel of the loaded gun, firmly squeezing the trigger, feeling the thrust of the recoil, feeling the warmth of the gun as it ejects the hot cartridge from its body, knowing that the bullet will achieve full penetration of the target and expand in the moist, succulent flesh...

Or something completely different?

Well this is a political game and for the last few hundred years guns and politics have never really gone anywhere without each other so I wouldn't really call it abnormal.

That the the Republicans are slowly taking over the internet.:eek:

I'm a straight guy, so I don't have a need for one of those.



On another adventure related note, my roommate and I went to a (real) mexican restaurant near the gun store called Puerta Vallarte (in Newington, CT on the Berlin Turnpike), and I'd have to give it 2 thumbs up. They must have psychics working in the kitchen, because the amount of time my order took to arrrive at the table was about 5-7 minutes. The service was excellent, the decor was interesting, and the fajitas I ordered were the best I've ever had. There was complimentary salsa and tortilla chips, and they were brought over to us (with glasses of ice water) within 30 seconds of us being seated.

Yeah...amnesty. Not ban.

Ok the virtual fist, anything works when its virtual baby!

Use your imagination, my dear Watson, use your imagination and you might find that there is a whole exciting world waiting just beyond your horizon.

But alas, it is also true that without the imagination Watson, there would be no horror.

Er... I was thinking more along the lines of men with big guns are compensating for something, and the size of a mans piece (sorry) being directly related to his ego and...

But yeah. That too.

*Eat at Joe's* *Eat at Joe's*

My imagination and my horizons are fine where they are, thank you very much.

And what do you mean when you say "*Eat at Joe's* *Eat at Joe's*"? I was just giving an informal review of a good restaurant (I know there are a few NS'ers in CT), I don't work there. Hell, I don't even live near there, I just happened to be in the area.
