I'm trying to make a list of all the terms used by the anti gun people to scare us. Here are some I already have.

1. Assault rifle/weapon
2. Sniper rifle
3. Armor piercing bullets

I know there are a lot more, additions would be great. Thanks.

fenced land marked "No Trespassing" = compound

500+ rounds of ammunition (brick of .22) = arsenal, also

scoped rifle = sniper rifle

White male, camo pants, combat boots, OC'd sidearm = Klansman! (been called that more than a few times o_O)

Hmm... I'd like to set a stand at a firearms convention, with a Hunting rifle, and a M95 BMG. With a big sign with neon pink letters that says "This is NOT a sniper rifle... THIS IS!"

sooo, you want a needle gun? lol

a couple more: packing heat, gun toting. Those two always get under my skin because I know they're always said or printed with a side of smugness and meant to sound negative.

If by "needle" you mean rivet gun! I could only imagine the size of a 2.23 caliber bullet given that it is 10x as large as a .223 caliber!

any AK or AR style weapon = Machine gun *even though it is considered a light rifle by the military and a machine gun is belt or drum fed ........

us=gun nut

anything over 10 rounds= high capacity magazine. even though alot of .22 plinking rifles have 20rnd mags.

guns= killing machines

lazer sight = tactical enhancement for murder . no i just call it better accuracy in the dark.

just a few i've heard.

um who doesn't use the term "armor piercing bullets". Everyone that has an AR15 should have a case of them. Hint: they are the green tipped ones. Or do you prefer the more engineering lingo of "enhanced penetration cartridge"?
