#1 Remember kiddies, only trained professionals should have guns.

(do I need to put a /sarc on that?)

#2 Under ATF rules, the Krinkov is a pistol since it doesn't have a fixed stock, and so the rule against armor piercing rounds is applied.

Seems like the ATF creates their regulations as they go. A Krinkov originates as a pistol. And so a piece, with that barrel length, converted with a non-detachable stock "fixed" to the receiver would render it a Short barreled rifle subject to other requirements for ownership but in theory legal to fire the 7N6. However, unless one wears a trench coat neither are exactly easy to conceal. At best their "armor piercing ammo" regulations seem to be a solution in search of a problem. More likely a ruse from the get go.

#3 Who was the prime manufacturer of 7N6, and did they donate to American politics recently, would be my first two questions.

I think we, our Scotch 12 Think Tank, got a circle squared the other night.

The conundrum:
Leftists think only LEO should have guns.
Eff the Police.

It isn't that only LEOs should have guns.
Only *their* LEOs should have guns.

And for the record, again, I consider LEO my cousins, and have never, even though earned, had an encounter which was not at least...constructive.

We were also able to square the Fred Phelps and current collectivist (whole other discussion) methods of violence, and that the collectivist is by nature a loose cannon by purpose. That is, when told control, control, you must learn control, they scream back eff you old man!

*maybe more, chores beckon
