Thank you to the 3-4 people that actually helped me out, I was only trying to use a little humour to describe "black and Green" guns.

To the rest of you, you are a bunch of losers who will end up scaring away and new guys who are interested in growing your sport. Good for you.

Thanks again for the people who actually helped me out!

So matt, I can help you out. I will tell you everything you need to know, as soon as you send a pic of yourself with todays paper, holding A rifle.
 
It should be a rule that threads like this get locked. What good can seriously come from this? The new guys should be able to do some reading and find s**t out on their own, and we cover our own asses...
 
I am very disappointed to see the childish remarks made by some of the more long term members on this forum. I am more concerned with the mentality of these people making these remarks than the questions asked by those that are new to the hobby. Its comments like those above that scare new people away from what could be a very interesting and rewarding hobby. Did anyone ever stop to think that just because someone has newbie beside thier status that maybe just maybe they have more experience than those on here that have been long term members. Just because you are a new member dosn't mean you can't have 20+ years experience.

I hope that knowone will respond to any of my newbie questions with the negetive enthusiasm demonstrated by some on this thread. To many times I have seen threads like this get out of hand on other forums and recommend this one be locked down asap before someone gets really offended.

Newbie and Damn proud of it.

Sean, while I agree that responses like those above do not help the community attract new members, a proper response to THIS question could potentially harm our community much much more. I think it is you who needs to stop and think about why someone would ask this question.

And FYI, not all newbie questions are answered like this. Many newbies with specific inquiries will find help here. It is only questions like this guy's that scare people.
 
Wow very disapointed at the lack of suport a new guy is getting here.

Now if you doa bit of searching there is possibly a variation of the AR coming out that is 22 caliber but that is still in limbo. If you are just looking for that "look" of a black rifle there are alot of after market stocks to make some other rifles look the same such as the 10/22 ruger, sks restocked looks nice (I am doing that one myself) etc. Anything that is remotely looking like a black rifle or "baby eater" as the media makes them sound like have been deemed restricted and a few prohib's now. Read and search as much as you can, there is alot of info here but sometimes you have to wade around chest deep before you find it. :rolleyes:
 
I guess everybody was new here at one point. Any of the black rife threads/ photo galleries should provide you with what you want.

On the other hand, it may not, because rifles are not scary... Chuck Norris is.

To all those worried about "newby" fealings, maybe you haven't been around guns or involved in the media/political BS. First off, you don't come to a mature gun forum that has been having to deal with all that BS and ask a question like that on your first post.

If it was an innocent question then may I suggest you do a bit of reading first and learn about some of the issues going on.

To the anti types looking at this to feed your emotionnaly insecure lives,
-"scary" is an emotion based on the perception of the persons mind, not a single gun "scares" me, they do however fascinate me and get the frequent "Awsome...hohoho!". If a gun is scary may I suggest you go out and shoot some and get to know these scary beast. When kids are scared of the gobblin in the closet, we tell them go and look, face your fears, the same applies to gun scary.

With the now recent RCMP move on re-evaluating gun classifications, WE are not about to give them any more ideas or help them in their quest for "evil scary guns".

A gun is a gun is a gun, there are no such things as a "more dangerous" gun, to give different classification to guns is idiotic except for one reason and that is to justify to the public that certain guns are different and therefore should be controlled or banned, after that, more guns are reclassified and banned.

If your feathers are shuffled because of the response to such a provocative question then maybe you should educate yourself about the reasons why, then come back here and comment on your own question.

Newbies that are offended by this should take a step back and THINK as to why the response is such. We welcome newbies and encourage people to take more people out shooting, that's how people look in that scary closet. Infortunuitly people are out to destroy this hobby, and trust needs to be earned.
