I like to keep it simple. The 2nd Amendment allows me to keep and use my weapons and ammo. I support that Amendment, and so do millions of our citizens. Article V of the Constitution sets forth what is necessary to amend itself: 2/3rds of both houses to begin, and approval of 3/4th of the states to ratify. Good luck with trying to change the 2nd Amendment!
They won’t try and change it but they will keep squeezing.

Look on You.Tube for zipguns. Actually, I just did a search, but found much more there. They aren't the ones we had as kids, these use .22lrs up to shotguns. My point is, a glock or other of them is light. And price, does $40. sound good?
That's a good suggestion, but I'm interested in a legal weapon. Currently, I have .44 magnums SAA. I'd be more interested in something more along the lines of a PPK.

In my opinion, the focus should be on the people not the guns. Were we to have a better society, a better education system and better surveillance of growing youngsters by medically trained observers, doctors and teachers, as well as parents of course, many of the shooting disasters could have been avoided altogether. After all the gun does not point itself or pull its own trigger. That takes a person. Tend to the people and the gun problem would be tremendously reduced.
I do not know the exact numbers, but there are upwards of 80 million or more gun owners in the US, and they own about 200 million weapons, who are not a threat to society. That tells me that it is the criminal element, the deranged and mentally overstressed that need help or incarceration. It is a total misfocus to carp about gun control while leaving these crazies loose to find just any old weapon, say using their bare hands, knives from the kitchen, or from fertilizer and ammonia or some other type of explosive mix, or even poisonous gas, for instance. to carry out their murderous deeds.

A 22 is more effective, use CCI stingers...
I was talking with a big big man... I would have guessed 6'8 and big.
He worked as a security guard in West Sacramento..(s**thole!).
He told me of the night that a Mexican gang member shot him with a 22.
I asked him, "what did you do??"
This big gentleman said "I fell down and hurt like hell, I'm not John Wayne!"

Do you want a way to make a .22lr or any much more lethal? I work with gunsmiths at times. It's pretty easy, but few think of this. First have the rounds in a vice, next use a small (very small) hammer to make pockmarks. Third, soak them in antifreeze. They no longer have to hit a vital organ, anywhere will do. Last, wear gloves while loading.

If I have to take someones life, it will be because mine is in lethal danger.
Then it's fine if my prints are all over everywhere.
I have been shot at 5 different times from close range...two of those were surreal close.
I don't care to do it again, but...
If things have moved to irreversible gunny sack, then tactics might change.
