Why do you want a gun?

I might be able to do it after the burn barrel gets hot and the steel softens but not from a brand new condition unless I'm really close. There are different types of ammunition available for a .22. It's a very popular rifle from the old days.

excellent point
I've never plinked at 'new' barrels
talkin' 20 ft
 

Gotta clean ours again and get them ready for plinking, clays and paper targets at the Range when my wife is off this month.

Ex military. But the gun controls in Switzerland are strict and regulated for civilians.

It's a different culture. My niece lives there.

They don't have the Second Amendment.

Re teachers carrying guns. I have a tough time imagining a teacher shooting a former student. Also if the shooter is carrying an AR-15 and the teacher has a handgun, it's not a fair fight.

I'm sorry but I'm going to have to say that something has to be done about those high capacity semi-automatic rifles.

In my opinion they don't belong in civilian hands.

At certain ages they are no longer 'just civilians'. They get drafted, or whatever, and become part of the military. They have weapons at home for that by demand and by choice after their military assignment ends.

I believe that maybe the US should further model the Swiss and their ways with discipline, duty, responsibility for all.

The U.S. and the NRA would have a tough time with the restriction the Swiss have. The civil rights groups would have a tough time with mandatory conscription. Different culture.

Exactly my argument. We have drifted too far with contrary civilian laws and need to get back on track with our Constitutional ways, respect for the country and our laws. The US has a lot of its old ways now shunned and we need to recover it again.

Sure hope the Swiss do not go as far to the don't care thinking about their country as the US has gone about our country.
