A 'pretty woman', spouting nonsense on Sky News, taking flight on the 'government debt is like a business's debt'  nonsense spouted by her co-host.

‘’I didn't know what a Tranter was until you said you had one. The only examples I could find online were around ten thousand dollars. Actually some Felons are allowed to possess firearms in their home but can't buy one.??? It doesn't seem like it would be a problem since even felons are unlikely to use an antique or reproduction in a violent crime.’’

Probably the double trigger ones, they’ve always bought a high price.
Mine ‘ single trigger version, was advertised as being a rusty relic, asking $800, I studied the photos and enlarged as much as possible and there appeared no be a lot of original finish and the nipples we’re undamaged, so I offered $500 which was accepted. Turned out to have been neglected and was virtually new mechanically. The barrel was ‘’rusted’’ but the ‘rust’ turned out to be ancient grease of some sort overlaid with years of dust,; cleaned up as a nearly new barrel.
Shoots really well.
Has to be licensed in NSW, [understandable], as I can fire 5 aimed shots in 4 seconds with it [timed on the  club’s electronically controlled Rapid Fire range].



More reasonable opinions prevail here from time to time. How much crime has been prevented by this restrictive regulation in your country?

Quote:
Under US federal law, an antique firearm is defined as any firearm manufactured in or before 1898, or any replica thereof that is not designed or redesigned for use with rimfire or conventional centerfire fixed ammunition. This also includes replicas that use fixed ammunition that is no longer manufactured in the US and not readily available.


Under this definition there is no restrictions or record keeping. Also there is no crime wave misusing them. I ordered two Colt reproduction Uberti revolvers and the only requirement was an adult signature from the UPS driver.

Me just being curious. Do you use conical bullets or round ball, loose powder or paper cartridges?

Just so. If you're going to round up and deport people on visas,you need a reason.

If you're going to jail then for life, you need a reason too.

Habeas Corpus, innit. This is the very foundation of our rule of law. It's what makes you superior, remember?

Now that you've abandoned it, what makes you better than some tinted cannibal with a bone in his nose?

That's a question.


Depends.


That's an answer.

He's a genius.


He also believes in Fairies. 

You are lying through your loose dentures, nappy soiled. Dreadful liar.

Tell us who awarded you your Doctor of Divinity. It should be relevant for your pronouncements about beliefs and fairies.


Oh, dearie, dearie, me, Soren, all you've done is indicate that you've lost the debate.  Tsk, tsk, tsk... Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

There is no 'debate' when a nappy shitting liar like you asserts that

He has a Doctor of Divinity
Someone else believes in fairies.

You are a lying little troll with no redeeming features. You lie, you smear others,  you crap your pants when there is the slightest dissent to your moronic, inane tut-tutting and eyerolling, a laughable compulsive tick you cannot function without.

Pathetic little lying troll.


Oh, dearie, dearie, me, what a WOFTAM you have proved to be.  You describe yourself superbly.  Whenever an Immigrant does something you disagree with, whenever a Black person offends, your the first on the forum protesting about it.  Whenever a non-European is in what you describe as the wrong country, you're crying and whining about it.  Whenever a Trans-gender person appears in public you moan about it.  Soren, you're a fool and a bigot.  Tsk, tsk, tsk...
