what kind of unconstitutional bullshit is that
No one, and thats their point.bassplayrr said:What a load of bullshit. What kind of average citizen could afford the premiums on a $250,000 insurance policy? Yet another way to ensure that our rights only remain for the wealthy few.

The same BS that our great all knowing AG uses to put restrictions and specifications on handguns that are sold in this wonderful totalitarian state. It's ridiculous here.MACHINE said:what kind of unconstitutional bullshit is that
Again insurance rates in MA are set by the state, it's not the same here as in any other state.Ben said:I can't imagine the rates would be to expensive. Insurance is all based on the probability of something happening, which isn't to high for a legally owned firearm...

It will hopefully die a slow death as it has done before
But call your reps and let the know .
also the target gun bill is in the MA senate, please call your sen. and let them know you want them to support the bill
It's H.4552Janq said:Duc,Ducman said:This bill comes up every few years and gets stuck in review.

Do you have a link toward the 'Target Gun' bill?
Thanks,

I know what you mean. I grew up in Alaska and will probably move back when my time is up in the military. It would be political suicide if somebody proposed that kind of shit up there. Hell, they're actually going the opposite direction of California and Massachusetts. They did away with CCL's a couple years ago, no permit required now.Adler said:People give me shit for living in the middle of nowhere in Iowa....but shit like this has coninced me to not move to either coastal reagions. Sure its boring here and the winters are freezing and summers broiling. But atleast people have a small bit of common sense left and tend to mind their own friggin business.
A couple of state Reps in Des Moines who are from the east coast tried to one up the Cali gun ban here. They were going to ban all semi auto rifles with teh ability to be over 5 rounds....even 22lr's. Man you should have seen how fast that shit died especially since IA is really cashing in on out of state hunters.

I contacted mine a few times about it. It's a small step, but atleast it's in the right direction.
At least she's kind of supportive. I think it hit the floor already though.Thank you for your correspondence regarding H 4552 "An Act Protecting the Rights of Target SHooters." In the past I have supported legislation that prohibits the purchase of certain guns that are extremely lethal, as well as high powered weapons that can be used in warfare, sniper activity or other non-recreational activities. I have read the Gun Owner's Action League fact sheet that explains H4552. My initial response is to be supportive of recreational activities that include Olympic style pistol shooting, international practical shooting competition and single action pistol competitions. I would welcome any more information that you could send me to know more about this sport and the guns used in them before I make up my mind.
Thank you again for your correspondence and I look forward to hearing from you.
Uh...I have supported legislation that prohibits the purchase of certain guns that are extremely lethal
