Yeah I know what the rules are here, just wanted a somewhat honest opinion on how difficult it is to obtain a semi auto AR15 with a 100 round drum in murica

I'm not criticizing you, but why do you need an AR15? Like, whats the practicality of it? Or is it just because it's cool.

I don't really see much practicality besides being fun to shoot I guess, but seeing how I'm in Canada I probably will not be getting one anytime soon,

I really just wanted to see if its as easy to obtain one in murica as its made out to be.

Ah I see. It'd be pretty cool to shoot I guess. I have experience with shotguns and rifles from hunting, and handguns on a range but I'd like to try so sort of assault rifle one day. Might be cool.

Not really much different than a semi-auto hunting rifle. Basically just "scarier" looking and has bigger clips available

I've never used a semi-auto rifle, just bolt action. Eh, maybe one day.

They're pretty fun to shoot especially in fully auto, surprisingly very little kickback, AK 47 is the worst for kick out of the guns i've shot. They're actually really easy to shoot and fairly accurate, really shows you why they shoot in bursts, Also shot a P90 thats a pretty cool gun

Really? I've never shot one, but everything I hear is that AKs have borderline horrible accuracy

sorry, that was poorly written, the AK did have shitty aim, the AR and the P90 had good aim

For all intents an purposes the AK is plenty accurate. When i use my bipod i can hit a beer bottle at 100 yards every time. Its not made to be converted into a sniper rifle. Its made to be blast shit not that far away an punch holes through hummers. The accuracy it loses compared to an AR is compensated by the big boy bullet it shoots compared to the rinky dink 223

You realize the only reason you guys can afford healthcare is because America protects your asses when it comes to war and you guys don't have to spend hardly anything on military. If America wasn't the "worlds police" then we wouldn't need a big military and could have a hell of a health care system as well.

 went to america once, i didn't get shot... usually when i travel i try to emerse myself in the culture, so i'm kind of dissapointed.

Hopefully next time i'll get to experience america properly, looking down the barrel of a shotgun.

no its true, you guys are 14th behind a few second and third world countries.

but Catardia has the highest expenditure and one of the lowest rated national healthcare systems in the world.


also its kind of an accepted fact around the world the frankly, well canadia's healthcare is... god awful.

The quality of health care wasn't being discussed at all. This is a completely irrelevant post.

But if you're looking at it that way, WHO ranks the USA as 39th in health care while being 1st in spending per capita on that health care.

Canada isn't that great either at 30th but are also 10th for per capita spending on our healthcare.

"Among advanced economies, the U.S. spends the most on health care on a relative cost basis with the worst outcome"

lol


here's another ranking putting Canada at 17th with $5600 per capita and the USA at 46th with $8600 per capita.

you know why? because its privatized and some people spends millions, while some people spend nothing and go to free clinics.

You're seriously a fucking dick. I'm not going top insult Canada because it's an awesome place. However, you are a misinformed piece of shit 12 year old that knows absolutely nothing about our amazing county. Just for the record, it's sick to make jokes about people being murdered. Rot in hell you stupid fuck.

Well you fail at pointing out specifics so I'm not sure which part you disagree with. Civilians can purchase fully automatic weapons under the Hughes Amendment of 1986, but only those made before 1986. They still have to do all the forms, sheriff approval and what not. Private dealers may sell firearms from their own private collection without background checks but not fully automatic firearms.

roddy116seriously though, the more I look into canada's politics the more it seems like a large society of the book, the giver.

if you have never read it, its about a 12 year old boy who lives in the ultimate nanny state, but was elected by a high council to be given knowledge about what the world is outside of where he grew up in.


Thank you for your insightful reflection on The Giver. Now please go do some actual research on countries policies, politics and social programs before making such huge generalizations.

I also suggest you read up on your own country and realize the native people have been marginalized, and while you're at it, maybe go read a bit on feminism so that you can at least use the term correctly.

I just wanted to get on hear to tell you that you're all huge faggots.

I'll probably get banned for using the word faggot.

On this site it's fine to insult the dead or mock the suffering of others, but god help you if you sarcastically insult someone. Crossing a real big red line there.

Faggots.
