[QUOTE="RugersGR8, post: 2844016, member: 56"] I Googled Dave Petzal and military weapons. Petzal’s dislike for them goes back at least 10 or more years. He has been described as a curmudgeon, crotchety old man, etc. when it comes to these items. As dennishoddy has stated before, Petzal and his fellow traditionalist gun writer friends need to go to gun shows that have the items that he wants to see rather than bad mouthing the ones that don’t(hence my analogy: Dave Petzal reminds me of a guy going to a GMC Dealership and then whining/complaining that he can’t find any Ford F-250s.) Traditionalist hunters, trap/skeet shooters, IPSC shooting, action pistol shooting, 3 gun competition, long distance shooters, bench rest shooters, AR shooters, etc. need to do their thing and not bad mouth other groups. Whenever they do their bad mouthing of the other groups, all they do is to give the gun haters/grabbers “ammunition” to advance their anti 2nd Amendment & anti gun ownership agendas. That is the reason that I posted: [CENTER][B]A 2nd Amendment take on a famous poem:[/B] They came for the hi-cap rifle magazines, and I didn’t object – For I knew nobody needed one to hunt; They came for the modern sporting rifles, and I didn’t object – For I knew nobody needed one to hunt; They came for the hi-cap semi auto pistols and I didn’t object – For I knew nobody needed one to hunt; They came for all semi auto weapons(including rifles, handguns, shotguns, .22s), and I didn’t object – For I knew nobody needed one to hunt; Then they came for all my guns – And there was no one left to object.[/CENTER] So what I am trying to say is that whatever shooting sport you enjoy just do it and don’t tar & feather the other shooting sports because they are not your cup of tea.
