My armor piercing bullets (NATO 5.46) and magazines for my AR-15 just arrived in the mail. First time i mail ordered bullets. Gotta love Ameroca.

@freemo i'm still undecided if i'm disliking that guns are so heavily regulated here or if i like it this way (i don't really trust many people). on the other hand, cars are as deadly too _and_ i enjoy watching forgotten weapons & hickok :ablobblewobble:

@bonifartius I dont trust people either, problem is I trust military, police, and government far far less than I trust your average citizen, so my lack of trust is part of why i support guns.

The other factor for me is I have never once been around a citizen with a gun who made me feel threatened because they had a gun in any way... meanwhile I've never once felt very safe around a cop carrying a gun, least of all when they have their hand on it ready to go.

@freemo the cops here tend to be rather chill, never had any problems with them (or fear that they might shoot me..). i understand the point of not giving away that power to the government though.

for now i have my air-rifle, enough to shoot old cans :ablobtonguewink:

@bonifartius I feel the same about Duitch cops, I never felt scared of them or threatened. One reason I am less worried about having my gun rights taken away int he netherlands is because I feel less threatened that the government or cops will turn to full on tyranny and I need it.

With that said I still lean towards wanting my right to own a gun which i see as a funemental right, as is the ownership of most things.
