    Now that the Florida incident is a couple weeks in the past, talk about; the second amendment, "gun control", weapons, and mental health, have seemed to have slipped on the forums here. As much as I love discussing food, (and I do!) I'm curious about everyones thoughts on how they would feel about a munitions law. Like, every bullet has a number or something. Track the killing bullet back to the person that purchased it? It would be outside the second amendment, so I'm sure the NRA would lobby hard against it....

    I'm sure there are holes in my suggestion. At least I'm trying?

    A file makes quick work of the tracking ID proposal.

    I'd suggest limiting the size of magazines. And, by the way, I have no idea what the difference is between a magazine and a clip. Perhaps a clip is a simplified magazine. Does anyone have a definition?

    What would you do with guys that load their own ammo? It is a pretty big hobby in this country.

    You can't control ammo, you can only hope to raise it right and teach it to fly straight.

    Magazines are containers that hold ammunition. That's why ships have magazines as well.

    The AR-15 has a magazine. You load the ammunition into the magazine and put the magazine into the gun.

    Clips are not a container. Usually the ammo is put directly into an internal magazine within the gun. The M1 Garande is a perfect example of this.

    Takes 1 minute 7 seconds to load that gun? Pretty slow!

    The video is 1:07 long. It was just a joke.

    The first rule of making a youtube video is to talk as slowly as possible and take as long as you can to actually get to the point.

    Thanks for proving you are completely fucking clueless when it comes to guns. The unknown is scary, i guess that's why you guys get all cucky on the constitution and just let anyone fuck it.

    You misinterpret my post. I tagged him because the clip v magazine issue has been one of his biggest bugaboos on these boards, and I figured he would provide the best answer to the question. Based on his reply, I think I was correct.

    I forgive you and you unfair and unreasonable assumptions.
