Dude, it could be a really big snake! Boa's in the wild get to be 20 or 30 feet long. Try killing that w/a rake!
On a more serious note I agree that this pistol is more braggin' rights than every day use.

And if I walked into a room w/nukes in them I would only be safe because of the sheilding in the war heads containing the radiation. If I walked into a room w/exposed nuclear material I would probably be exposed to lethal amounts of radiation. So, again, if I walked into a room full of guns locked in safes I would be okay. If I walked into a room full of guns laying out in the open I would still be okay unless someone picked up a gun, aimed it at me and pulled the trigger.

uhm, not really. if we're talking of the classical nuke, which uses u-235 as fission material, then you're not in great danger in that room. iirc, the specific activity of u-235 is about 100'000 bq/g, which is, while certainly not healthy, nothing that can kill you quickly. p-239, for example, is more than 20'000 times as active.
anyway, i believe north korea's nukes are (going to be) adequately shielded...
[edit: i did a little research: a critical mass of say 20 kg u-235 is, unless you eat it, virtually harmless.]
Guns don't kill people, bullets and cops do.

I'm confused. What exactly are you purposing to keep criminals from illegally obtaining firearms? You mentioned something about databases and laws/bills in yer previous post but you never got into specifics.
And don't forget 'bout the Brady Bill. That was a pretty significant piece of gun control legislation.

All you ANTI-GUN folks are failing to remember the most important reason for owning guns.
Its not only a RIGHT but an OBLIGATION to have an armed citizenry to protect ourselves from a tyranical government.

Bingo.
Which means I can and will protect myself from pseudo-Gestapo goons if our country (God forbid!) ever becomes like the world depicted in 1984.

if you don't like what our current government is doing then get up and do something about it.
