Kira Posted October 22, 2011 Posted October 22, 2011 While the title is not 100% politically correct, it fits in well with a teamspeak conversation of last night. A part of that conversation involved the fact that large portions of the population (anywhere, but particularly the urbanites) seem to have a major aversion to firearms in general. That, however, isn't the point of this thread. The point is that it was said during this conversation that some weapons are "scarier" than others, despite the fact that the "others" are, in reality, more dangerous (at least so far as stopping power is concerned, I'm not dismissing the tearing power of the 5.56x51mm round). Case in point, the discussion included the NATO 5.56x51mm firing M-16 (evil looking black gun, yet relatively small caliber) versus the 7.62x39mm SKS (far more hunting rifle looking but far more powerful, as well). The scarier part, in this case, seems to be (according to the author) due in large part to the fact that the person holding the firearm has the wrong equipment between their legs. A new book is out with, quote, "unsettling images of women and their firearms" unqote. I feel the need to add that I, personally, see very little unsettling about these pictures. Take the woman out, put a man in her place, and most people wouldn't even bat an eyelash at the images. Probably wouldn't even remember them, as such things are so commonplace, at least here in the States. Yes, I know, gun culture and all that. Chicks With Guns Quote
BadAim Posted October 22, 2011 Posted October 22, 2011 I've seen this before, and I didn't find it unsettling at all. I actually find it quite exhilarating. Women should be armed. I find the woman found murdered with her own stockings around her neck after being raped and brutalized no more noble than the woman found standing over the lifeless body of her would be attacker with a smoking gun in her hand. Simples. Quote
DD_Arthur Posted October 22, 2011 Posted October 22, 2011 I'm bored with all this chicks with guns stuff. I wanna see chicks, in their underwear, with anti-tank weapons. Thats something I know about. Quote
Jediteo Posted October 22, 2011 Posted October 22, 2011 You just want to know whether they can handle long things with a large calibre ey Arthur? Quote
DoubleTap Posted October 23, 2011 Posted October 23, 2011 I'm bored with all this chicks with guns stuff. I wanna see chicks, in their underwear, with anti-tank weapons. Thats something I know about. Amen, brother. I also dig chicks in helmets. Rachel Weisz... ...in Enemy At The Gates, with that big ass Russian Helmet on? Grrrrr, baby! Quote
Mayhem Posted October 23, 2011 Posted October 23, 2011 "Hunters, collectors and army members alike are displayed proudly carrying their firearms, setting a beautiful, if sometimes eerie, scene." I am so absolutely sick and tired or this kind of self righteously crap attitude. This is what's wrong with the world today, too many people living in bubbles wanting to express their discomfort with anything that doesn't fit into their little self righteous world. People are just too pampered these days and want to turn the rest of the world into one giant snuggy. Makes me want to vomit. Quote

Streak Posted October 23, 2011 Posted October 23, 2011 Does this mean that I need to further "disturb" everyone and post more pics of my girl and the guns the enjoys shooting in this thread? Quote
Mayhem Posted October 25, 2011 Posted October 25, 2011 If they find women with guns disturbing, I wonder what they'd think of this. Quote
T_O_A_D Posted October 25, 2011 Posted October 25, 2011 Only disturbing thing about that is. If you get the chance to spread whats left of her legs and get caught up in the trigger, you might just blow your own foot off, during the act. Quote

I was thinking more like blow the neighbors doghouse up..... You know like if the grenade launcher is pointed at the window. Quote
T_O_A_D Posted October 25, 2011 Posted October 25, 2011 Pfft! I wasn't worried about collateral damage to the neighbors, I'm trying to get laid here! Risky for sure, and a foot might be worth it. Quote
Mayhem Posted October 25, 2011 Posted October 25, 2011 Pfft! I wasn't worried about collateral damage to the neighbors, I'm trying to get laid here! Risky for sure, and a foot might be worth it. If the gun is pointed down......you're doing it wrong anyways. Quote

T_O_A_D Posted October 26, 2011 Posted October 26, 2011 Horizontal = loose a foot/neighbor/Granny ion the front room etc. Vertical = shoot the ceiling, and the kids asleep upstairs Doggy = only safe for all other's but the pair. LOL Pfft! I wasn't worried about collateral damage to the neighbors, I'm trying to get laid here! Risky for sure, and a foot might be worth it. If the gun is pointed down......you're doing it wrong anyways. Quote
Mayhem Posted October 26, 2011 Posted October 26, 2011 Hahahah, I just looked at the picture I posted again. Who comes up with this stuff??? Quote
Kira Posted October 26, 2011 Author Posted October 26, 2011 Dunno, but the whole idea of an M-16 variant as a leg... Seriously, at least they could have picked a weapon that won't jam with more than a speck of dirt in the barrel. (Hellloo AK-47!) Sheesh. (How'd she fire that thing, anyway?) Quote
BadAim Posted October 26, 2011 Posted October 26, 2011 Very funny and only slightly disturbing thread. I like chicks with guns. Quote
Sweper Posted October 27, 2011 Posted October 27, 2011 Hahahah, I just looked at the picture I posted again. Who comes up with this stuff??? http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1077258/ Quote
Mayhem Posted October 27, 2011 Posted October 27, 2011 LAWL!!!! I know the movie Swep, I guess it was more of a rhetorical question. I actually think the original concept came from a comic book. Quote
Jediteo Posted October 27, 2011 Posted October 27, 2011 Grindhouse is a very peculiar film, or rather two films. Not Tarantino or Rodriguez best films, but an interesting foray into cinema Quote
Mayhem Posted October 27, 2011 Posted October 27, 2011 Haha, yeah its "interesting" for sure. *SPOILER ALERT* (Don't read the rest of this if you haven't seen or ever want to see this movie) The special effects at the end of Death-proof where Kirt Russel gets his head kicked in are top notch. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bSGwHVGusic&feature=related Quote
Streak Posted October 30, 2011 Posted October 30, 2011 Because black powder smoke is just plain cool. and because women shooting an SKS is disturbing. Our SKS is from Yugoslavia and also has a rifle grenade firing attachment on the end of the barrel. Quote
rox Posted October 30, 2011 Posted October 30, 2011 Hah, SKS. Probably every other household in former war affected areas of my country have one lying around. Quote
