"Assault Weapon" ammo

[Muley Gil]

Read this on the 'Net:

"Florida State Sen. Linda Stewart, a Democrat who introduced the amendment to ban assault weapons, said on the Senate floor that ammunition from assault weapons can blow up inside the victim's body and that there is no reason for anyone to have them."

That's news to me!

I was suspect when I first read about the above quote, and then I found this:

Fla. Senate rejects assault weapons ban, holds moment of silence for shooting victims

She said it. Quoted in the Washington Post, the Chicago Tribune, many others . . .

I remember back in the 80s that some ER doctor in San Francisco (where else) said that bullets fired from Assault Weapons caused traumatic amputation of arms and legs. Basically, get shot in the arm, and your arms falls off. They will say anything to advance their agenda.

^^^I just hate it when that happens.

They latched on to what one of the teachers (who is a hunter) said about AR15 ammo. He was talking about the bullet tumbling to enhance the wound. Add hyperbole and it "blows up".

The sad thing is the dumb *** probably actually believes it to be true.

Ya gotta wonder why pictures of the weapon used has not been in the media (at least not that I've seen)? Perhaps due to the use of 10 round mags, which concealed better?

Next up, ban the dreaded easily concealed 10 round magazines.

I read somewhere that it was a Bushmaster, but it was only a passing reference . . .

Would be pretty ironic if cheap and nasty 10-round mags had saved lives. I don't recall ever seeing one.

I mentioned this before.......

Because of simple yaw and tumbling effect, all kinds of stories have been invented about the effect of military ammo. 5.56 is a military round, which is a .22 so now, a .22 pistol is one of the most deadly pistols because the bullet bounces around inside and causes catastrophic damage.

I remember when the M-16, being such a radical departure from convention it gave rise to all kinds of stories. Like a bullet entering your shoulder and exiting through your big toe.

The thing is that tumbling rounds are nothing new. The British built the Mk VII .303 round in 1910 with a lightweight nose to shift the C of G to the rear. On impact that meant the round would very likely yaw and tumble, all 174gr of it.

Maybe I have what it takes to write for the Post!

New "anti-matter" ammunition kills millions daily! This reporter has just confirmed the existance of ammunition for the deadly AR-7 "assault rifle" which kills so completely no body is left behind.

Devloped by the U.S. Air Force during the wars in Southeast Asia, the 22 mm long rifle AR-7 uses the same "super-ghostmaker" ammo as the Aegis anti-aircraft cannon, but in a smaller size to make it easier to sneak into schools and parks.

Made of "anti-matter" when the bullet hits a person who supports Mayor Bloomberg's reasonable agenda it causes the victim to dematerialize at a molecular level. Recent photographs, included in this article, show just how complete this dematerialization is.

Crazed gun-rights groups intent upon preventing common sense gun safety restictions have been observed handing out these murderous weapons and boxes containing 500 rounds of this deadly ammo to children at day-care centers, little leauge games and in public elementary school lunch rooms. Costing just $3.28 to produce the AR-7 breaks into two pieces for concealment. It fires its 1000 round magazine in 0.8 seconds and the bullets have onboard GPS trackers so they never miss.

Rather than using conventional propellants, the 22 mm long rifle "anti-matter" bullets use lighter than air hydrogen, so that a killer can carry an unlimited supply with him.

The AR-7s onboard nuclear fueled energy matrix field generator allows it to be totally invisible to the naked eye, and for it to fit in an average teenagers front blue jean pocket. The forcefield generated deflects bullets fired by all current LEO weapons.

Professors at Yale, Harvard and Sanford belive that roving "death squads" executed tens of millions of people in late October early November 2016, acting on subliminal telepathic messages eminating from the 'ghoul-metal' reciever in the AR-7. There were believed to be especially high murder rates in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan and Ohio.

The lack of bodies so far unearthed is proof of the existance of this meanace!

Darn, I guess there is something wrong with my AR, as the 55 gr ball and 55 gr JHP's I shoot from it all go through the target with a nice clean hole at any distance.

They need a history lesson. They need to see what a slow moving .58 Minie Ball from a MUSKET did to the guys who got hit by them. Lots of amputations done in Civil War field hospitals...but they weren't as traumatic as we'd imagine...as usually the arm or leg was only hanging by a "stringie" of flesh anyway.

...here are some 10 round AR magazines...5 of them...in a handy holder...

22mm?!!! Wow, that must kick! That would make the .500 S&W a "little guy" by comparison!

Cooooool... a tacticool magazine & bi-pod in one.......what will they think of next?????


Wait is a that a 50rd magazine?

 

[erics]

I haven't seen anything that specified what rifle was actually used. Many are saying Savage.

 

[keith44spl]

Was the 5.56 ever loaded with a duplex loading (2 bullets) like the 7.62 M198 cartridge???

[Doug M.]

Not that I have ever heard.

The loser probably bought a lower quality rifle, and did not lube it, so it malfed quickly.
