A Decent Attempt to Educate The Public on Firearms Terminology

[Phred]

So can we still say "pew-pew"? (asking for a friend).

Tell your friend(s) to says whatever's on their minds. That's why I put this up. I wasn't too sure how this would be perceived. it didn't seem to be complete drivel. Considering how ill-informed the naysayers are, maybe this will enlighten a few left leaning humans....or not.

That place gave me a headache.
I don't know if it's actually a "vortex " though.

They left out an important point on the "gun show loophole" section. It is still illegal to knowingly sell a firearm to a Prohibited Person. Up to 10 years in jail and a $10,000 fine. Most folks I've met are very careful about who they sell a gun to because of this. Or were, before state law made private sales illegal.

And of course they left out "shall not be infringed", which seems important...
