Hi mrchen Merry Christmas.

I have a couple of questions.

1.What does this picture have to do with Christmas?
2.Is that a real gun?
3.Why have you took a picture of yourself holding a gun?

Im not asking these question’s to be a dick im just curious.

I’m jealous of the xmas present you bought yourself (I’m assuming you picked it up for yourself, bc if a lady did that for you then I’m reallllly jealous)

I’m a shotgun guy myself because NJ is a bitch when it comes to having any cool toys, and I hardly know anything about rifles but here’s my best guess…. AK 47 equiped with some sort of tatical package? (guessing an AK bc of what looks like a gas chamber above the barrel)

AK47 folding stock, scope, synthetic stock and handguards, one of my collection

I apologize to those who dislike guns, I forget how opposed many canadians and uk residents are to guns,
here in the US there are more guns than blades of grass, gun laws are not enforced and criminals are heavily armed.

I am a decorated former United States Marine non commissioned officer and 8x rifle expert, I also have concealed carry permits in several states. A gun in my hands is a dangerous as a flower……..unless you try to hurt someone or deny someone their rights in my presence. I am a social liberal, you can do whatever you want, I will do whatever I want as long as no one hurts anyone.
I will never lay my guns down because there are too many people who would deny us our rights. Also the police dont protect us.

I celebrate Christmas by thanking my god of choice for my freedom, prosperity and health for me and my family through the year. I was taking some ink pictures by the camaro saturday and just happened to have the gun around from recent trip to the range. I thought the pic looked pretty good.

If the mods want to remove the picture, ok with me, but my sentiment is the same, Merry Christmans and Happy Holidays

by the way, gun ownership has been opposed by virtually every dictator in history

It’s hard to tell but I hope and assume your finger isn’t on the trigger in that picture. I’m also a gun advocate, own several (mostly handguns) firearms, have my state concealed permit and visit the indoor range often to stay practiced. If someone owns and carries I feel they should regularly practice so they know very well how to use it if God forbid they ever need to.

Indeed. It’s nearly impossible to get a concealed carry permit in NJ if you’re not law enforcement. Between the car insurance, high cost of living, gun laws, and traffic, I don’t miss NJ much. Here in PA I had a CC permit in my hand about 2 weeks after a quick trip down to the courthouse to apply. Even the best pizza place doesn’t compare to a mediocre place in northeastern NJ or NYC though. ๐Ÿ™

i dont have a problem with guns as such i just think there should be rules on who can have them… you walk down the street in london at night and you get to a dodgy area, all i worry about is the possibility of a knife, much easier to outrun… i dont like the idea of thinking that every tom dick and harry who gets desperate one day has a gun on them somewhere. just doesnt make me feel safe. i think only trained operatives who use it for a prefessional or recreational (clay pigeon shooting or in america hunting) purposes, and also have to pass a gun driving test would be nice! lol would stop dumb teenagers with no clue from buying a piece at the local store and holding up some unsuspecting shop assistant and it accidentally go off a week later.

i dunno, just my opinion ๐Ÿ™‚

oh and merry christmas, very jealous of the camero! ๐Ÿ˜€

That’s pretty rare in my experience for a military man. Good to hear! ๐Ÿ™‚ btw what’s the story with the All or Nothing Hardnox Clothing logo?

Well you have to be 21 to get a handgun in the US and in some states (e.g. NJ), getting a concealed carry permit is virtually impossible. Laws vary by state in terms of licenses and so forth. imho, all states should require a license for gun ownership and a thorough background check should accompany the process. It might not be a bad idea to require at least an NRA intro course either. I’m a strong supporter of the 2nd Amendment (right to bear arms), but I think many states need more stringent requirements, particularly in the south and midwest. Now all of that said, the number of crimes committed in the US with legally obtained guns is negligible. Most criminals obtain their guns illegally so they can’t be traced when they shoot the clerk at the local Quickie Mart.

I do wear 200 hours of All or Nothing ink, and really I am pretty happy about it

I agree guns in the US are too easy to get, any criminal can get one right here in Atlanta in one hour. Thats not good for people like kittykat walking the street heading to her car from a concert. Georgia Tech students are being robbed on the street for a couple years now, every week and the cops cant do shit. They are no longer on the street protecting anyone, costs too much, they are out writing tickets and trying to generate revenue. I beleive in protecting myself.

I really couldnt have more firearms training, NRA life member, US Marine rifle and pistol expert, Hunter Safety training in Georgia and Maryland, and I used to build firing ranges for a living. (did some cool ones like the FBI’s at Quantico, Beruit Secret Poilce and the facility at Glock)

My neighbors enjoy sleeping well in their beds, even the ones who own no guns which is the majority. Most of my town knows who I am (233 hours of ink and a bright yellow 2011 camaro I am hard to miss) and know I have LOTS of guns and ammo and other things that hurt people, but they also know all those dangerous toys are in the good hands of a skilled user.

You know nothing happens in our neighborhood? Not a damn thing?
