    MAC-11 are cheap stamped steel trash guns, but because Reagan or some dipshit in the 80s was scared of explosions powering machines (dunno why cars weren’t banned, come to think of it) full-auto guns like this shit went from being cheap $200 throwaways like Hi-Point, to five-digit legacy historical heirlooms that Boomers pass down to their families as a fucking rare Crusader artifact found in a dusty ancient tomb.

      Funny that most of the gun legislation has come from Republicans. Regularly hear, “I ain’t votin’ for no Dem because they’ll take my gun.”

      Yesterday, I went to pick up some more ammo and the gun counter guy talking to a customer about how nice it is that they can take these criminals straight to El Salvador without having to go through courts.
