Biden calls 9mm ‘high-caliber weapons,’ suggests banning them

[AlBeight]

Did he just provide a new marketing campaign for all the defensive ammo manufacturers, “our 9mm defensive load will blow their lungs out...”?

 

[CrueChief]

I don't expect much from people that know absolutely nothing about guns, ammo and the like to tell me what should happen to them.

Like asking my mechanic to check my nut-sack for a lump, and who are the 34% of people that think Biden is doing a good job and what would he have to do to lose their support.

I believe that question you ask is one of the most important question for our countries survival

 

[DC-W]

There’s what he says and then there’s what the agencies actually do.

For example, the ghost gun rule doesn’t even ban 80% receivers as originally sold. I expect the brace rule due by August will likewise be substantially walked back.

Biden "Ghost Gun" Rule, Part I - DD LEGIO

Little of substance has been reported concerning the actual, legal effects and function of the new ATF receiver rule. The text itself is some 364 pages. Defense Distributed will sue ATF to stop this rewrite of the GCA, and I have more detailed notes to share, but my summary impressions of the...

Wow, No 9mm handguns.

How many is that in the US?

15,111,566 produced from 2010-2020. Twice as many as the next most popular cartridge.

There sure isn't that many sitting on the shelves.

Oh and not counting the previous decades and the years 2021-2022.

We need to keep America Free! If we don't fight for it, there is nowhere else to fight for.

Obviously not in common use. Sigh.

My 9mm identifies as a .22

This is not to defend Biden, who is clearly an idiot... but I was thinking about the span of waterfront covered by "9mm" and it is pretty significant. While all of approximately the same caliber, there are certainly some significant rounds in the 9mm family. To be fair, I wouldn't volunteer to be shot by any of them, but some even less than others.

I'm sure I'm missing a few in the 9mm-ish range, but just for consideration, any of these could be considered "9mm",

So, the question is:. Which of those will shoot your lungs out? Or is it all of them?

 

[teratos]

So, the question is:. Which of those will shoot your lungs out? Or is it all of them?

It’s about shot placement.

 

[welder516]

Smoking & 9mm two ways to lose a lung

Kamilla knows a third way...

Lol. Yeah, I guess if you use the idea of just "shoot them in the leg" you'll just shoot their leg off.

 

[Occam]

Lol. Yeah, I guess if you use the idea of just "shoot them in the leg" you'll just shoot their leg off.

Only if you shoot them in the thigh, which is where the leg lungs are.
