That's an MP5K by the way. K is for Kurtz, Shorty.

wish I could take the parallel path here like DMT.
However, J-Rig just pointed out another group of gun-lovers that are WAY under-appreciated: homosexuals!
EDIT:
Scar-baby, dood, this is a gun appreciation thread: yes, I recognize that Dayton Family music is not the finest, yes I recognize that their Flint meth (and the coke, let's be real) suck, but they are gun appreciators. Can you not dig it?
EDIT PART DEUX: Do they make an MP5-Long?

Sorry, DMT. I misread your double entendre. Multi-tasking ST & TJ's shopping slipped me up.
I hereby retract my snit.

no, i keep my secret stash in a safe.
gays, women, and yes... even liberals own guns (as exhibited by my liberal better half).
personally, i seem to like the old single action revolvers best. lucky for me most shootings occur with more modern arms, so i wont likely lose them any time soon. the 44 vaquero is a workhorse, and has more style than most autos these days while still being affordable on the used circuit.
now, if ya dont mind im gona go hide in a closet and try to get some sleep away from the snoring baby and better half.

yeah, the little Ruger .22 target pistol is indeed a sweetheart.
I have heard that most heterosexual women prefer a man with a thicker round, though.

what do the bi chicks prefer? they,re twice the fun, with fewer hangups...
funny- my guntard friends think i,ve a deathwish for climbing, my gay cousin thinks the same about that and my hunting trips, you guys seem to think having a couple guns makes me a probable mass murderer, and i think you people who fly around on jet-liners are just nuts.
i swear, if i just had a bolt gun...

Funny thing RonG and Scar, SWIM owns these.
SWIM has a couple-three mini-14s and they are just so fine. totally great on the perforation potential, and the maim/kill ratio (high) is pretty nice for conventional human-terror effect as well. it all depends on the ammo, though, right? and zombies do knott care too much about maimage....SWIM drives around in town with a couple of bushmasters in his jackie
the bushmaster is really technically a pistol in the eyes of MI law, which is fairly reasonable when you consider the fact that is within .25 inches of the max length, holds 30 rounds of .223, and fits in your jacket on a handy sling while driving with the CCW. practical, you know? in case of carjacking. in flint. from other gun owners (TDF anyone?).
EDIT: dual wielding the bushmaster? YES!
yes, the carbon 15 bushmaster beefed up zero malfunction, bad-accurate, pencil-type barrel, gas-piston operated schlong along with the picatinny macro micro backup, wet-runnable, pistol-kit-capable, upfront red dot sighted, with the 1:3 bongdong quadrail, four grip acid tactical very rugged very reliable budget level 800 dollar person perforator, yes. a 15 with the classification of a handgun.

yes, though, Ron, trigger replacement is an issue. but not shooting maiming non-fatal Safariland holes in living things. you can attach a sling, too.
wherever you point the red dot, it will hit. people too. including yourself. or your kid. careful out there, bongers. "feels like a toy, almost, right?" Yep, shoots great.
Nope it was not an AR or a Bushmaster, but it still sucks, and she was not even **THE F*#KING PILLSBURY BISCUITS**

BONUS EDIT: with a gun a 9 yr old can kill a samurai, but can she climb 13b?
yes?! [Click to View YouTube Video] okay, nevermind
TRIPLE DOUBLE EDIT:
this coyote appreciates guns
[Click to View YouTube Video]
funny how the shooter sounds something like a mix between Lee Malvo and Jeffrey Dahmer, sort of like an adult man that was sexually abused as a child taking vengeance on a smaller lower life form. You know?
If he had been really smart he would have shot the coyote in the face. Pussy.
sometimes this helps me get to sleep:

and sometimes this is hunting. good. this is what firearms are for, right? sport?

there is zero overlap with school shootings and the shooting of humans here. none. just the fact that klebold and harris appreciated guns too.

Do you jack off when you shoot small furry creatures? Or just after skinning them while thinking about your ex-wife?
It is like Shipley said: you will come back in the next life as a urinal.

When I was a kid, I had a Savage .22 single shot bolt action that was pretty nice. Some scumbag broke into my apartment and stole it. My dad had a JC Higgins 20 gauge. I killed a bird with it and felt sad.
My brother-in-law and sister were Mother Earth News types when they bought a 100 acre farm in the hills of Southern Indiana. 20 acres was plantable and they had corn there. When they moved in the posted the property No Hunting.
The deer during hunting season, of course, figured this out very quickly. The 20 acres of corn didn't last very long. Deer can really eat corn.
The coyotes figured it out, too, and soon over ran the place.
Before you know it, the No Hunting signs are taken down and my brother-in-law is on the porch with a .30-30 blasting coyotes.
Meanwhile:
The Armed Citizen:
A Glendale woman is expected to recover after being shot in the shoulder Wednesday as her husband was clearing a handgun for a safety check, police said.
The woman, 43, was in stable condition at Huntington Memorial Hospital in Pasadena, where she was being treated for a non-life-threatening gunshot wound to her shoulder, police spokeswoman Tahnee Lightfoot told the Glendale News-Press.
The woman’s husband, who wasn't identified, was “very distraught” over the shooting, which detectives have preliminarily determined to be accidental, Lightfoot added.
The wife was standing in the kitchen about 5:30 p.m., while her husband was seated on a couch in their home in the 2600 block of Sleepy Hollow Drive in Glendale.
As he opened the case containing the .22 caliber handgun to clear it for her brother, who was moving out of their home, it suddenly discharged and struck his wife, Lightfoot said.
The bullet missed several vital organs and reportedly struck her shoulder blade.

"there is zero overlap with school shootings and the shooting of humans here."
Maybe...but anyone who shoots a sleeping coyote just for the f*#k of it deserves to be treated like vermin.

This has worked wonderfully. After posting climbing topics that received 0 responses, or 1or 2 tepid comments, this thread is over 100!
Sigh... So much vitriol, so much anger. Assignation of attributes to an inanimate object, straw-man arguments, hyperbole, disgust. The object, even the image of it, offends to the core. Peculiar. So many other tragic icons (alcohol, pharmaceuticals, maladaptive behavior of every strain) bandied about in jest and with lightness.
On Supertopo, more than any other idea or image, the firearm is the lightning rod for hatred.
So strange. Carry on, it clearly works for y'all.

it suddenly discharged and struck his wife, Lightfoot said.
it this not impossible, for a gun to "suddenly discharge"?
the trigger HAS to be pulled, firmly to fire
unless the 22 was sitting in its case and the hammer was fully cocked back and ready to fire...
but he still would have had to pull the trigger to get it to fire
which would be a really really dumb way of storing any weapon
naw, the husband was playing with it and shot his wife
regretfully

A little something different, a WWII Bren in .303, legally acquired and built into a semi-auto from a parts kit. Sights are offset to the left to accommodate the top mounted magazine. Very fun and different feeling to shoot.
I'm an ardent advocate for more gun control, but that doesn't mean I don't appreciate fine guns.
The Bren is even more fun in full auto, and when someone else is paying for the ammo! I once spent an afternoon helping my reserve battalion expend its entire year's allowance of .303 Bren ammo. My thumbs were shredded from reloading, fingers burned from fumbling barrels, but what a great time!
Despite the number of gun-nuts here, I bet I'm the only one who was assigned a SMLE, Bren, FN-FAL and Steyr-Aug as personal weapons in just three years of reserve military service. Trivia for Gun/Military heads, where was I?
