September 12, 20169 yr Yes, you can make your own guns and ammo There are some stipulations but in general the answer is yes But in the US this wouldn't be derived from the second amendment and would have to do more with local law and regulations, I'd think. I cannot - yet I must. How do you calculate that? At what point on the graph do "must" and "cannot" meet? Yet I must - but I cannot! ~ Ro-Man
September 13, 20169 yr That's interesting - I just came across this vid on Youtube of a couple being destroyed by the Canadian government (I know it's probably different in America) because they didn't agree with the gun laws implemented on owners, and let their licence expire: So the government destroyed their gunsmithing livelihood, went after their home, and were financially ruined by defending themselves in court. It just makes me think that if they ever allowed the public guns in Britain (which will never happen without massive political displacement), case studies like this would be common place - unless the government put aside its ability to tax the public - which would require an even bigger upheaval.
October 7, 20169 yr As a fun little exercise, I tried to come up with a D&D alignment chart for 20th Century Firearms. Let me know what you think: Lawful Good: H&K MP5 (the SMG feared by terrorists, bank robbers, and hostage-takers everywhere) Neutral Good: FN FAL ("Right Arm of the Free World", 'nuff said) Chaotic Good: Colt M-16 (Serves the public good, just watch out for collateral damage) Lawful Neutral: Colt Canada C-7 (Based on how UN Peacekeeping missions used to be a Canadian past-time) True Neutral: IMI Uzi (You're as likely to see it being used by the good guys as it being used for a drive-by shooting in South-Central) Chaotic Neutral: Kalashnikov and derivatives (For the most prolific implement of war, this seriously goes without saying) Lawful Evil: Tokarev TT (Favoured means of execution by Zampolits) Neutral Evil: IMI Desert Eagle (Used by deadly, misanthropic computer programs and crime bosses with an inflated sense of self-worth) Chaotic Evil: Luger P-38 (The quintessential Nazi gun) Edited October 7, 20169 yr by Agiel Quote “Political philosophers have often pointed out that in wartime, the citizen, the male citizen at least, loses one of his most basic rights, his right to life; and this has been true ever since the French Revolution and the invention of conscription, now an almost universally accepted principle. But these same philosophers have rarely noted that the citizen in question simultaneously loses another right, one just as basic and perhaps even more vital for his conception of himself as a civilized human being: the right not to kill.” -Jonathan Littell <<Les Bienveillantes>> Quote "The chancellor, the late chancellor, was only partly correct. He was obsolete. But so is the State, the entity he worshipped. Any state, entity, or ideology becomes obsolete when it stockpiles the wrong weapons: when it captures territories, but not minds; when it enslaves millions, but convinces nobody. When it is naked, yet puts on armor and calls it faith, while in the Eyes of God it has no faith at all. Any state, any entity, any ideology that fails to recognize the worth, the dignity, the rights of Man...that state is obsolete." -Rod Serling
October 12, 20169 yr Chaotic Evil: Luger P-38 (The quintessential Nazi gun) I'd swap the P-38 with the MG-42. The 42 has probably sent more people into heaven than any other firearm in the world - and the cause was rather sinister. I gazed at the dead, and for one dark moment I saw a banquet.
October 12, 20169 yr How about the 88 mm flak, if we are talking about the quintessential nazi gun. I mean they put one on the Tiger tank. Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.
