What weapon would you see yourself as? - The Firearms Forum

K1D_5150 · 02-04-2010, 01:11 AM

What weapon would you see yourself as and why? It doesn't have to just be a firearm either. I would see my self as an American made AK. My name is Rebel (I was born with that), I am a bit rough around the edges, and may not always be quite on target, but I'm reliable. I won't quit my friends and family, even when it gets down and dirty, you can guarantee that I'm gonna keep on firing. I may not be a bruiser but you can bet that I pack a punch, and most of all, as I said American made, I was born in the god ol' USA, and was built on principles of freedom and not impoverished slaves to the State. *I meant to put weapon*

Red i like that answer

i've always taught that we are the weapon

Rifles, MG's , Launchers are our tools.

we do the thinking, the aiming, the planning

the tools just get used to our whim's

i've also taught guns do not kill people

people kill people, a gun is a tool

used well it can save , used badly,

we all know that side..

cheers

An old gatlin gun!

I'm always running off at the mouth, and at my age I'm no longer as dependable, and will jam from time to time. I'm slow to move due to my weight. However, I still have the drive, and will, to get things done.

That is an excellent answer, from both of you, I wasn't being that extremely serious, just a humorous survey. But good answers.

Hydrogen Bomb.

VERY stable, can sit inert for long periods with no apparent motion.

It takes a LOT of work to get the reaction to start -

But once it starts, it is unstoppable and the result is not going to be good.
