Let me know what brand fits in standard cans. What they had at Walmart apparently does not.

Nice. I hadn’t thought about that. I like to run halogens in the kitchen can lights. Makes for nice light. I have to switch them out for something else in the summer thought because they put off a lot of heat. They’ve outlasted my CFLs though.

Comment on Stolen Guns Might End Up In Criminal Hands – Ya think? by Mikee

I think the number of full auto weapons recovered from criminals in the US in any of the past 10 years can be counted using only my fingers. maybe my toes. Unless they have been stolen from the military/LEO or imported from overseas, I doubt there have been 10 fully automatic weapons used in crimes in the US. There have been almost zero new fully automatic firearms sold in the US to civilians since 1986.

Having said that, I can agree that most full auto weapons recovered from criminals have government serial numbers. All guns have had government serial numbers since sometime around the middle of the last century. Or do you mean that the guns are government-owned arms, stolen and circulated to the criminals? That would make sense, as only the government is allowed to purchase newly made fully automatic rifles now.

Perhaps Old American is implying that most criminals in the US work for the government. Something I can certainly believe given the politicians we have.

If it is indeed fact please do post the link, because right now I’m more of the opinion that the door off the hinges southern border lets them in from Mexico.

Great story! And quite refreshing. More confrontations should come out this way. That would actually have an effect on crime.

Do you have a cite for that? I can certainly believe it, but if you’ve got data to substantiate the claim of “fact,” that’d be good to know. I’m all for exposing facts that gut the arguments tossed out by the anti-gun crowd.

FACT: Most full auto weapons recovered from criminals in the US have government serial numbers.

I like the “Yeah, I shoot like a girl.” one a lot. To bad I’m a guy. I’ll have to get it for my wife.

I just got a new t-shirt. It’s a Smith & Wesson one. It says ‘Yeah, I shoot like a girl.”
Lots of fun. I wore it to my company picnic.
