Elon Musk Fires His Barrett, Posts on X

[Paolung]

So the pothead posts a blatant violation of Federal law for all the world to see. Unless he's given up Wacky Tabacky for good, he's still a Prohibited Person... right or wrong, and being an open pot user with a firearm in addition to an outspoken celebrity Enemy of the Regime is like waving a red flag in front of a bull.

The ONLY way this would make sense would be daring them to make him a test case and taking it all the way to SCOTUS.

Maybe not so "blatant" after all.

Ban on marijuana users owning guns is unconstitutional, U.S. judge rules

A federal judge in Oklahoma said that the government could not argue that the "mere status as a user of marijuana" justified stripping a person of their "fundamental right to possess a firearm".

Does he? Or does he just support HIM owning firearms?

Musk favors some gun control, calls for special assault rifle permits for 'extremely well vetted' people

Tesla CEO Elon Musk advocated for some gun control measures in the wake of the Uvalde, Texas, elementary school shooting that killed 19 children and two adults.

Looks like, at the time of the statement, he was in line with current law (NFA etc.), since that's what regulates actual assault rifles.

Lol, no sights on a "sniper rifle". oof

It's more like an, "area sniper" rifle. I mean, after all you don't need no steekin' sights when you're obliterating an entire city block or a massive jumbo jet with a single shot, am I right?

We get it Vinny, you have distaste for wealthy people

Clearly you don't get it

Article is over a year old. Unlike the left I am willing to allow people to change without holding their past against them.

With that being said if that truly is his current belief then he's just another elitist piece of SHlT.

It's true a lot can change in a year, but I looked and that is the most current info on his position I can find.
Maybe I missed something that someone else can find?

Oh darn, was hoping the Barrett vid was from his recent border trip

He's done more down there (just by showing up) than the camel VP has.

Tell me with that hat what could look better than a Barrett 50 strapped on his back??

The recoil is surprisingly light. Lighter than a 12 gauge.

Interesting. Didn't know that.

Interesting. Didn't know that.

It's got a compensator the size of a brick, and a recoil reduction system in it that lets the breach and barrel move rearward a few inches against a spring. One of the guys brought it to a shoot and he had 10-year-old kids shooting it. One shot each, and they got to keep the empty brass. I'll bet over a hundred kids shot that rifle that year.

He could buy scotus. Rules and laws do not exist for people with that kind of money and influence.

^This. See Hunter Biden.

Not to mention that brake having a roar that makes tyrannosaurs jealous. LOL

Double up the ear pro when you shoot that puppy and don't let newbies stand 45 degrees from the muzzle brake. If you shoot prone over gravel it will cut a V in that gravel.
