If the apocalypse happens tomorrow, I'm sorry... « Thread Started on Aug 14, 2010, 9:40pm »
You know how they say your car will break down the day after your warranty expires, or the bus will come as soon as you light a cigarette? Well, I traded in all of my high-power guns today, so now that I'm mostly defenseless, it's likely the world will end sometime in the next day or two.
I traded in my AR15 carbine, my SKS, and my Ruger P89 9mm pistol, and walked out with a Ruger 10/22 and a Marlin 39A on order.
Though when it comes to defense, I guess a .22lr is better than no weapon at all, so if we're lucky, maybe the apocalypse won't be trigged after all.
May the road gangs never meet you. May the wind be fallout-free. May the sun shine through the ashes, hot rain not fall on thee. And until we meet again, may no one hold your flesh in the palm of their hand.

If north korea marches across the DMZ I will get a plane to make a quick stop in Hawaii and curse someone out. But first I will put a Megat0n shirt on them

Anyone hear about the game Homefront? North Korea could follow the game in real life!! Also GET SOME DAMN GUNS MEGATON!!!! I know the code to my families gun save so I should be okay for a while. And as I plan to buy some land and build as many bunkers as I can on it then power it by wind and solar generators, then stock up on guns and ammo. I have some stuff planned out, and even if I don't live to see the Apoc then at least I will die knowing that my children will have someplace to stay safe.

It's funny, here in Ireland you can't just buy a gun. My Dad had an eighty year single barrel shotgun and that's still the only gun I have fired. My bro is big into martial arts, so I did archery too. I live in a small rural town on the east coast, that has the biggest arms center for the police outside our capital lol. So if shit goes down, I know where I'm going. Irelands a bit mad though, with a history of survival, so I figure there's worse places to be.

Speaking of Ireland, I still want to get over there some day. My Dad's side of the family is all 100% Irish (I'm about 70% Irish myself; I'm a Kennedy) so I spent a lot of time in Irish bars and listening to Irish music when I'd visit them.

It's worth the visit my friend, come in summer and rent a car and go down the west coast. That's the real old Ireland. Good Trad music, good surfing but bad weather lol!

I'll agree with that comment about the weather! You didn't mention all the fantastic little pubs to be found in the villages My father's side is Irish and my cousin on my mother's side married an Irish girl from Letterkenny in July of this year so I was happy to take the trip to the Republic for the wedding (generally I avoid weddings like the plague).
It rained just about every second day in Letterkenny. We had a hire car and travelled about a bit. From Letterkenny to Donegal, it rained. From Donegal to Sligo, it rained. From Sligo to Galway, it actually stopped raining! From Galway to Limerick it was overcast with some drizzle. Stopped in to check the Cliffs of Moher on the way to the Dingle Peninsula. It didn't rain but it blew a gale and then started raining! In Dingle, it rained (but only lightly) nearly every day we were there. Then it was back through Limerick to Dublin and from there to Belfast.
After all the browns and yellows from Australian summer it was incredible seeing so much green vegetation. I love the place and look forward to getting back some time in the future.
Nah, we temp fate much more than you over here in the UK. No one owns any sorts of weapons.
Plenty of weapons in Manchester and the countryside. I doubt the ones I saw in Manchester were "legal" but a shotgun certificate wasn't difficult to procure for my buddy. Just go shotgun!

You europeans, why you not into guns like US? But then the US has a LOT of nutjobs that have access to guns, and nutjobs that want to see all guns gone.
