[@carguy3028]

I was in Afghanistan and taking to a local who worked in the mess hall. He talked about the terrorists and the motives for the terrorists were the same, they didn’t have other options. It was amazing to me how similar the story is wether it’s terrorists or inner city gang members, what also amazes me is how we don’t see that.

“Military assault rifle” how stupid 🙄

[@marinevet4131]

For the record a 9mm or a revolver is more then enough weaponry in the hands of skilled marksman who knows how to effectively place rounds on target. Problem is most thugs can't shoot. That's why there's always so many innocent bystanders being killed.

[@nosoynadaoiga4144]

[@TheBigodaddy]

This episode doesn't seem so realistic because what type of gun runner would risk being busted just to give an interview with ski masks on? If they were real they wouldn't do an interview and they don't need the money from the interview because there's plenty of money in gun running

[@GiuseppeSimonetti]

I guess everything chambered in 5.56 is a military assault weapon huh? Lol I'm sorry but this video lost all credibility when they called a Kel-tec a military assault rifle! XD They could have at least put an AR-15 on that table.

[@OnPointFirearms]

It's like a Kia or Hyundai. If that's all you can afford, fine. It'll get you from point A to B, but nothing to brag about. And my EXPERT opinion is that Kel-tecs are fun toys for the range. I would NEVER trust my life to one as a serious defensive or offensive weapon. Period. Comma. Period.

[@diosable]

Your "expert" opinion. What? Does that statement make you feel something better than you are? Stfu, kel-tec does the job especially in regards to the buyers, here. You're either ignorant or you have no idea

[@OnPointFirearms]

Yes, I'm a fucking expert. It's a fact. Not boasting. My opinion is backed up by 15 years as a federally-licensed firearms dealer that has sold everything. I would never carry a Kel-tec as a serious tool. They are novelty items. The only reason you have one is that you're too poor to afford something nicer. Period.

[@diosable]
