Advice From Moonpie

 Moonpie being yet another guy on a gun forum. His advice of a day or three ago was to start buying magazines (as in those that likely will be banned if that seemingly leftist, child petting, racist, women's hair stroking, klan loving, segregation opposing, China loving, nepotism promoting, gun hating POS Biden actually gets into the oval office - this time as top dog - which by the way is my opinion of Biden, I have no clue as to Monnpie's). It probably would not be long before he puts out some executive order to criminalize them & to confiscate them (or should the Dems take the Senate - before a ban is enacted into law). Illegal - probably as all heck but if he or the Senate does it and if his minion obey, think of the hassle trying to reverse it - it could take years if not decades. I also recommend hiding a good number of them if he gets in - just in case of whatever - mind you not to do anything illegal.

I already ordered another 10 aluminum, 30 round, AR15 magazines by Bushmaster from Numrich (aka: GunPartsCorp.com). Not a bad price at about $108.00 shipped from NY to TX. Note, if you look for them they show a much higher price until in your cart and it has to be the offer for a single lot of ten of them, not ten that you put in your cart by inputting the number ten into the little 'number of items' box. I suppose I may as well post the link, the one showing the sale pirice: https://www.gunpartscorp.com/products/1437110A. 

Recently purchased Beretta 92 series mags and ordered some Glock 19 mags; now to look for some steel 30 round AK mags. It evidently is coming folks - be ready - the left apparently is out for retribution for the four years in which they were denied their goddess of sorts - Hillary Clinton.

A First BB Gun For Christmas (or whenever)

 Here I go with another gun forum related post, second in a row.This is my reply to a parent thinking of getting either an Air Soft gun, a manually cocking B gun or a CO2 powered BB gun for his/her child. A few to several other forum members chimed in that a manually cocking BB gun is too difficult for a young child to cock (the child will be around 5 1/2 years old at Christmas).

This was my reply, advice I lived by when teaching my kids almost anything:

"Whether to tough for him or not, I strongly recommend a manual cocking BB rifle. They are inherently safer than a CO2 powered BB gun. Think about long and hard because w"hat is the most important issue here - I think safety. You can cock the gun for him and you can teach him to do it with your assistance and he will become ever so happy & proud when he finally can do it himself. Think of that and the bonding while you help him do it - hands on father (or mother) to son  (or daughter) teaching. That is how you get the right way going in kids and not by handing him something so easy to do he can do it right away and thus have more of a chance of not learning to do it the best and safest way over a longer and surer to set in set of instructions from dad (or mom).

You will notice I left out the whole idea of an Airsoft. Airsoft it too much like a toy to me; so, I would use a metal BB gun that is closer to a real firearm if I was ultimately intent on teaching my child to shoot real guns. Toys do not translate to danger for most kids; explain and make sure it sinks in that a BB gun is not a toy.

As far as I am/was concerned, the same goes/went for first firearms. I started my daughter and son off with a bolt action rifle. Then only after that was seen to be handled appropriately and well, did they move onto semi-auto rifles and that took quite awhile 9(not a day nor a week nor a month - maybe half a year or more). I made it fun and they each had fun. Lots of folks say their kids would be bored with a bolt action rifle and probably think the same about a mechanical cocking BB gun. That is balderdash, at least it is balderdash if you teach them the right way by doing it the right way yourself and showing them your enthusiasm about teaching them the basics with the basics. In other words keep ot safe & serious but make it fun not only for the child but for you. Moving on to bigger and better things should be a reward for them doing it right with the first tools - it should not be a participation trophy kind of a thing but something earned.

I also look at it this way, any parent who says something like 'a mechanically cocking BB gun is to difficult fore their child to handle' and therefore is going to get the kid a CO2 powered gun, quite possibly is either getting one too soon or is just too plumb lazy to take the time to teach the child how to do it right until the child gets it right himself or herself. You will be missing out on a much better bonding experience doing it the easy way instead of the the better way that takes more time and effort on both your parts.

Good luck with it all."
