    Not sure who downvoted you, but I know several dems and left wingers who also enjoy firearms. I can also point to reps and right wingers who have banned firearms that they claim they “support”.

      I downvoted him only because he used the qualifier. You can be anything AND enjoy guns. The notion that you cannot is forcefed to us. His qualifier only reinforces the idea.

        That was just a thinly veiled swipe at our current president. Had not thought anyone would take it seriously…. More or less trolling now that I’m giving it some consideration.

        I believe the most charitable thing someone ever described my tiny gun as was “a prostitute pistol.”

        You can literally get it as a belt buckle in some states but I believe the requirement for a long barrel precluded that in my CA legal version.

      Yeah. I suspect it was my underwhelming knowledge of the vintage firearm permitting process. Not really even mad about it.
