    People need to quit being afraid of what the liberal anti-gun might do. It will (and is) getting to the point where the liberal element will shame people into not standing up for their rights.

    I WILL NOT BE SHAMED!

    And I resent being compared to "trenchcoat mafia". If there were not rules against language I would have a few choice words for you. I am offended.



    PS, the shotgun has a 20" barrel and is well over the public legal length.
    If you bothered to read, you'd see that I never compared you to trenchcoat mafia. I said that it might look like trenchcoat mafia behavior to some. Not me.

    I couldn't give a crap if the barrel is public legal length or a controlled item you purchased legally. Frankly, I couldn't give a crap if you had minigun. It's irrelevant.

    I never said not to stand up for your rights. But flaunting it isn't necessarily the smartest path to keeping our rights to own these firearms. And as far as I'm concerned, as a gun owner, I am entitled to criticize depictions of firearms that I think jeopardize our future ability to own these weapons.

    You want my honest opinion. I'll be glad to give it to you. You won't like it though.

      That having been said, I'd love to have one of your AUGs. Those are fantastic guns.

                  That's just it. If you show pics they will claim that you are a psycho and if you don't they claim you have something to hide. It is a no win cituation. But by showing them and that they are an item to enjoy you might draw others into it and thus enlarge the firearm holding crowd.

                  As for the aug. It is awsome. I do golf balls at 100 yards.

                      It's just an aestetic cover to make an XL magazine look prettier from the outside and have a better feel to grip with. Underneath i'm sure a normal welded 1911 extended mag. I very much enjoy my 11rnd extended mags as they are naturally. When I decide to start carrying it, I will probably carry one or two of them as backup mags. they look so ghetto it's hard to not hold the pistol sideways when you shoot it.

                          With the responsibility of gun ownership also comes the responsibility to not portray other gun owners in a bad light... It does us all no good.

                          However not sure that play acting should evoke such a vehement threat from someone also burdened with the responsibility of Law Enforcement either. Temper temper!!!

                          However...

                          Here is some Mil Spec stuff I have collected for my Cold War era representation (these are all Semi Auto by the way, No class 3) ....
