Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

One thing I know, every liberal gun owner is a marksman. They've trained with their firearms and know them fifty times better than a Conservative does.
Oh look, it's me! ;)
7.62-MM M14 with a walnut stock. Trained with it during my military days but I didn't take it on deployment. I was stuck with the M16A2 in Afghanistan and M4 carbine in Iraq.
Nice! Mine's a Henry in .45-70 Government. Good for most big game in North America. Marlin briefly had theirs rated for T-Rex as a cross promo for Jurassic World. LOL.
I had someone not believe me when I told them they still issued M16s in Iraq and Afghanistan.
"Wikipedia told me they switched to the M4 entirely!?!?"
Yeah, okay bud, just like they're going to be using nothing but the M5 in another decade.
Or two...
Or three.
I bet you could get issued a M1 under the right circumstances.
People who don't know how deep military warehouses go. Wouldn't surprise me if there weren't some WWI field phones floating around somewhere.
Isn't the Army still issuing M1903s? With warehouses like that, they'll never fully modernize!
Is this gun tiny or is this table enormous?
Oh, it's a big damn table. LOL.
It's a normal sized rifle, it's not a cannon or anything. Spec sheet has it at 38.1" (96.77cm) with a 19.8" (50.3cm) barrel. Weighs just over 7 pounds unloaded.
European here, what is that? Genuine question, it looks very shiney and expensive.
That is a side-gated, lever action, Henry rifle, chambered in .45-70 government. It's rated for any big game in North America. With an added scope with 5x magnification.
