We had an awesome reputation once: "I have no plans to invade America, because there will be a rifle behind every blade of grass". That was Japan's words in WW2. If we lose that reputation, all bets are off.

In those arguments, I like to throw up the deaths due to: obesity, cars, household accidents, etc. and find the category the moron I'm arguing with fits in, then lay it on him/her.

The elderly and disabled are a terror threat and must be disarmed! Jeez, the shit this prez comes up with.

Thanks for the replies and advice guys, I appreciate it. Thankfully, this is the closest thing to social media I do, so no prying by HR there. I love the job, but it's hot and dirty and I'm in my 40's, so the first air conditioned CNC/machinist/mechanic job I find that's not 1st shift, I'm gone!

I worked for the same company from October 2000-April 2015 and decided to jump ship (a topic in itself). Holy crap did the interview/background process become a huge pain in the ass! I'm curious to hear some of your stories on the topic. Mine was an eye opener. A few observations:
1. Background checks. I checked "no criminal record on the app". I had a DUI in 1993, but completed the A.R.D. program and it wasn't put on my 'criminal' record. HR found it and I had to explain that it's not on my police record. I had a summary fine for swimming in a quarry (new owners are dicks) and once again I had to explain, not a criminal offense.
2. Soooo many forms of ID! I can't even find most of the originals, now I'm waiting on snail mail for originals of birth certificates, SS cards, etc. That's another pain in the neck too!
3. I have a GED (got it before my actual graduation date) and I always checked diploma. HR was all over that too, now I'm waiting for that to come in the mail.
4. I have a stack of training certificates ie: PLC programming, hydraulics, welding, cnc programming, industrial maintenance, etc. They contacted every classroom to verify.
5. New HR and old HR definitely talked about more than my professional background (I hated my old HR lady and made her life hell) and that came up in the interview. Funny thing is: they hired me before my physical and background check were even finished and now I always have to see HR about something else they need!
I got the job, but I'm curious to hear some of your red tape nightmares on the topic in case I change jobs again.

It was probably a grease fire.

What does that show the rest of the world that our military personnel are being gunned down at home? Arm them and let the training do it's job.

I couldn't believe the msm covered it. Especially while dear leader is rambling on about gun control.

I had a laser bore sighter in my rifle and accidentally stuck it in my ceiling fan! It's a cat toy now.

Don't forget "Animal Farm" too. The old cartoon is all over the web for free, not as good as the book, but still great.

I just got my first 9mm's this year, probably doesn't count as wonder 9's, but I like them:
1. TNW Aero-survival carbine. It uses Glock mags and is easily converted to .40 and .45.
2. Wifey just got a Charter Arms Pitbull 9mm revolver. No moon clip needed. Real fun to shoot and a good SD gun for her.

Great topic. One brand really stands out to me:
1. CCI Stingers for all our .22's. Mini-mags and Maxi-mags are great too. Best rimfire ammo out there.
2. Hornady Lever-evolution is great in rifles and pistols. My .44 lever action and revolver love that stuff.
3. Hornady critical defense and Con-bon powerball feed great in my semi-auto pistols.

Putting all that effort into the battle of Stalingrad instead of sacking Moscow just hastened their demise.

I just put a 7" roto barrel on my cheap Taurus 1911 and some high viz sights. I like it better now.

I like revolvers and I'm a fan long and short guns in the same caliber. I just picked up a TNW 9mm carbine and my wife got a Charter arms 9mm 6-shot revolver. It's pretty neat: no moon clips (the extracter holds the rounds), perfect size for her, and same ammo for the carbine. We have a lot of dual caliber long/short gun combos from .22 up to .44mag. The primary reason some people choose the revolver over the semi is that the cases stay in the gun. For reloaders, that's a plus. Sadly, criminals like them for that same reason.

I finally got it finished! Took it to the range today. It loves newer ammo, and hates my milsurp stuff. I painted the barrel with grill paint, so it's black now.

I did something I never thought I'd do, I bought a 9mm! It's a TNW Aero carbine in black, you can get kits that convert it to 40 Short and Whimpy or 45acp (I'll get a 45 kit someday). It takes Glock mags (it came with a 15 rd stick, I got a 33rd factory stick at the store and ordered two of the new 50rd drums with 1,000 rds of fmj)! I'll give a range report when I break it all in. It looks fun.

I'm waiting for him to use some of his go to phrases like:
"We disarmed some folks"
And the classic:
"If you like your gun, you can keep your gun".
Predictable Barry.
