From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I have stayed out of this debate because I thought both sides were generally interested in generating more heat than light. However, I do find a several points in IG's latest posting that I would like to take issue with: ~I realise now that is because I am

From: "IG", [EMAIL PROTECTED] I think this debate has run its course. I cannot, in all honesty, be bothered to repeat myself all the time by responding to individual posts. I have clearly stated my position, which is universally disagreed with. (Venomously and vehemently I might add!) I would

From: "pa49", [EMAIL PROTECTED] There seems to be an almost self-destruct air about the debate regarding who should and who should not be "allowed" firearms. Why would anyone want to remove an individuals right to defend him or herself in the appropriate manner? The appropriate manner can only

From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I find that disturbing coming from a dealer. (I presume..'Jackson rifles?) This is a very dangerous statement. Why is the simple stating of an opinion disturbing? We've been down this potential path before. No credible political party subscribes to the

From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] OK. I'll risk the hate mail and say that I tend agree with some at least of what IG says! Is there anyone out there who hasn't looked around the firing point and thought " Now how the hell did he/she ever get a certificate?" Fortunately none of us are privy to

From: "E.J. Totty", [EMAIL PROTECTED] As there has been so much venom vented on this topic, I would love to know what views the contributors hold on the subject of who should not be allowed to hold a firearm or shotgun certificate. I take it that it is the general consensus that there should

From: "E.J. Totty", [EMAIL PROTECTED] Steve: it's simpler than even that. A scanner used with a CAD program, will produce almost anything within reason, depending upon the capabilities of the machinery (tolerances). Peter: Your first comment above is legion; that is why it is
