Just what I would expect to find in DC.
Dumb C*nt.
I knew she was a Liberal as soon as I saw her face. See how concernnnneeeddd, and carrriiinnnggg and worrriiieeeedd she is about her
subjectserrr,… ahhh…. constituents.I’m guessing she’s not aware of all the poor gang children being burned by hot barrels during drive-by shootings. Barrel shrouds protect these children and any legislation that forbids these safety devices is unconscionable.
One would think that lack of a barrel shroud, when one is called for, would be a design defect that would make the manufacturer liable for burn damages, since they either knew or should have known that such burns were not only possible, but likely as a consequence of the normal use of their product.
I suppose a few warning lables and a few more pages in the owner’s manuals would work just as well.
• Magazine, not clip. A clip is used to hold ammo in formation while loading (charging) a magazine, you ignorant, arrogant, fear-mongering congrasshole.
• “Most gangs and criminals” do not use “assault weapons,” you lying congresscow.
• A barrel shroud is designed to keep you from getting burned by a hot barrel (and as a structure to mount things on).
They have been used on machine guns since early days, because the barrel gets too hot to employ the traditional wood forend, and the heat from the barrel needs to be freely vented.
They are also used on normal home-defense shotguns (I have one, and it’s called a heat shield, the vented metal half-cylinder above the barrel)
Oh, yes, the shroud makes it uglier and more menacing,
but that’s a good thing for a self-defense weapon.
They’re also used for cosmetic purposes.
Perhaps the congresswine would care to explain how that makes ‘em more dangerous. [looks at watch, waits, drums fingers]
Oh, “[T]hat shoulder thing that goes up?”
Dunno. Folding stock? (see: Mossberg pic)
Adjustable comb or cheek-piece/pad/rest?
Nope, not a barrel shroud. Not even close, actually.
F’n Congressian harpie never got past the bill’s title, and she would probably never even consider enforcing the existing laws on criminals.
It’s just a blatantly dishonest excuse to control us peasants.
(What? Yeah, Progs do that a lot, believe it or not.)
Needs more Doubly™
Ref: Spinal Tap
Are we sure she didn’t say “thingy”?
Oh, “[T]hat shoulder thing that goes up?”
General consensus among the gunnies is the folding shoulder rest found at the buttplate of the M-60.
Apparently we have an assault LOOKING Weapons ban.
I’ma put a full Archangel kit on my 10/22 and take on the Russkies alone, First Blood Part II-style.
Stupid, ignorant people with power.
It’s a nightmare.
In case anyone is wondering….this hag is Rep. Carolyn McCarthy (D-NY).
From Wikipedia:
McCarthy was born Carolyn Cook in Brooklyn, raised in Mineola. Her father was a boilermaker and her mother worked at Woolworth’s.[2] In her youth, she was an athlete and wanted to become a physical education teacher but found reading challenging and later was diagnosed with dyslexia. After caring for a boyfriend who was injured in a car accident, McCarthy decided to work as a Licensed Practical Nurse.[3] Later she married and lived with her family in Mineola, a suburban area about twenty miles outside New York City on Long Island. On December 7, 1993, her husband, Dennis, was killed and her son, Kevin, severely injured on a Long Island Rail Road commuter train at the Merillon Avenue station, when a mass murderer, Colin Ferguson, opened fire on random unarmed passengers.[4] Ferguson killed six and wounded 19 others.[5] McCarthy responded to the crime by launching a campaign for more stringent gun control that eventually propelled her to Congress in 1996 on the Democratic ticket.
McCarthy has been described as “the doyenne of anti-gun advocates in the House” and “[t]he fiercest gun-control advocate in Congress.”[7][8] She has made attempts to broaden her policy portfolio, but hasn’t been able to shed the label of being a one-issue congresswoman. She has acknowledged this, and in 2009 said that although she is also know for her education and district work, she is still the “gun lady”.[9]
McCarthy was a registered Republican before her first run for Congress. Over the years, she has “evolved over the years into a reliable Democratic vote. She has voted with her party 98.1 percent of the time during the 111th Congress.”[9]
You see, Ms. McCarthy blames the gun that killed her husband and injured her son. She didn’t blame Colin Ferguson, she blamed the gun in his hand that had a trigger that he pulled and a barrel that he pointed at her family members.
Shrouded or not, if a Babe is sporting these she is good to go!

It’s like a tea cozy, only larger.
There’s a 5 gallon, 15 gallon, 55 gallon and other sizes are available.
Doesn’t everyone keep their powder and ammo barrels warm and dust free with barrel shrouds?
Apparently we have an assault LOOKING Weapons ban.
–Comment by Stick
Actually it is a scary looking weapons ban.
Hint: if you put wood furniture on your AR, it makes it 128% less assaulty.
Chicago, today, having a long e-mail conversation with a Dear, and frigging tough, FBI, Chief of Station Female friend in a Big city nearby….. 52 shot, 12 or so killed.
How’s that Gun Control working for you!
I carry, I have the right, and I can’t carry a Copper everywhere I go.
She said, keep it up.
Eff the pols….they don’t get it.
“Guns are bad, Mkay?” /
What is it about Hoplophobes that makes them sound like uninformed idjits? Oh, nevermind; I was being redundant.

Yeah, I didn’t even think of that.
The M-14 & M-1A (semi-auto M-14) have that, also.
Well, mine does.

The irony is: her husband and son may not have been harmed, if other passengers had been armed.
And why is it that almost all mass murders occur where law-abiding people are certified unarmed (Post Office, school, workplace, big gun-control cities, dictatorships, etc.).
^^why, Target rich, low danger environs, of course!
DougM, thanks. I thought the M-14 had the same thing, but I couldn’t tell from any pictures I could dig up.
And in keeping with your comment to Holger, my first questions about any mass shooting are “How many rounds of return fire? None? Why?”
Wollf, you must be mistaken about shootings in Chicago; guns are outlawed there and people can get in trouble if they’re caught with them.
Let’s be honest here.
Politicians are only experts at one thing and that’s being a politician (I.E. using weasel words, lying, cheating, bluffing, swindling, etc.. anything to get votes.)
Knowledgeable about guns? No. Knowledgeable about finances? No. Knowledgeable about healthcare? No.
Yes a few now and then do know a thing or two, but the ’99′ percent don’t know heck.
^ Paul,
But … but … they’re the enlightened, the experts, the elite!
It’s the foundation of all statist theory.
At least she didn’t say it was what they wrap folks who don’t survive going over Niagra in for their funerals.
