Gun Story on the Today Show

[Admiral Photog]

There is gonna be a gun story on the Today Show this morning. Been watching since the show started this morning and hasnt been on yet. Try and catch it if you can.

'Today' investigator talks gun-buying

Found this, more brady BS

 

[Skip]

They show the preview pieces and end with "and it's legal!". I'm watching.

 

[Skip]

Well...... That was predictable. "murdered victims friends" crying on tv. Undercover buys in parking lots, than ambushing the sellers saying " aren't you worried your selling to a criminal?, getting a former ATF agent to look at ALL the sites online to buy guns and saying how bad this is. Plus they added Bloomburgs "investigation". Dem Shumer saying how powerful the NRA is in fighting this. And oh yeah...... 'it's completely legal"

 

[Texan2]

WE need to swamp the comments section of their website.

 

[Admiral Photog]

I liked how they said "some of the most fatal guns." aren't they all fatal? And a "police grade pistol"... What is that? Lol.

 

[Texan2]

I just looked at the comments....WOW!

 

[Admiral Photog]

Yep. Really good comments and points being made.

Here is the link to the comments....I hope...lol

TODAY Show - Rossen Reports: Anyone can buy guns, no questions asked

I read the article online. I don't know if it was on the video, but it said they took the guns and gave them to the police where they were destroyed. That's kinda pointless if you ask me. Why not just donate them to the Pd. Those guys that sold the guns don't care if they were destroyed. They still got paid.

There is no loophole, only a freedom to buy and sell an item, that is the only constitutionally mentioned item we can keep and bear, without government involvement.

 

[Admiral Photog]

Yeah after the piece the repotrter said that they took the guns to the local PD to be destroyed. Pretty sure they, the local PD, was excited to add a .50 sniper rifle to their gun locker...lol

And I'd like to see it take down a plane/helicopter in flight...highly doubt it...lol

Some of those sales look fake. How common are black talons now a days?

Wow where can I get a police grade pistol?! Also caught them say that the 50 cal they bought was one of the weapons of choice for the drug cartels - I guess they got a taste for them after our gov allowed and tried to watch those Barrett's go across the border...

My dad still has some from the early 90s. Besides that, haven't seen them. He doesn't load them so I'm just gonna go shoot them off.

Nicely worded.

I've never sold via private sale listing online ( though will post an xdm soon) but I've bought via private sale and we each signed a bill of sale and he checked my dl / chl and this is the way I would do a sale as well.

This was misleading as it made it seem that you can just go online and suddenly a gun appears.
I'd like to know how many sellers asked them for id or refused a sale that was conveniently left out of this story

Don't see 'em often, mostly being sold to collectors and ignorant people that buy media hype about 'em. Good to hear the media is still using the same hype as 20 years ago.

Just wondering, why collectors?

I can see you're new to gun forums... Everyone knows anything less than a .45 just causes superficial flesh wounds
