I say Yes as per their published statement.

Giroy! you are losing it , there is no such place as Myercough, but there is Mayerthorpe Alta. get things right will you , put mind in gear before putting mouth in motion!, most of the time no one knows what the ---- your talking about.
That's like you trying to tell me that you knew all about where Haliburton Twnsp. was , and you were wrong.
It's a wonder that you don't get lost in your own neighborhood, or do you use GPS to get you back to the house when you leave?
You must be off you meds. again.

DU has never sold or auctioned a military-style assault rifle or a combat shotgun. There is a difference between hunting firearms and weapons configured for the specific purpose of killing people.

Yup. The difference is the liberals are going after assault rifles first then will come after your shotgun.

Don’t be so naive

The Remington 870, and Mossberg 500 is used by Military and Police Forces around the world.

Maybe you need to check your facts.

No firearm is configured specifically for killing "people".

Firearms are merely designed to shoot. What they shoot depends on the mental make-up and intent of the person holding it.As for DUC,you can't suck and blow at the same time. I vote "NO".

The facts are the configurations of a Remington 870 and a Mossberg 500 are quite different for anti-personnel applications than for hunting: Shorter barrels, detachable magazines, breaching chokes, side saddles, extended magazines, picatinny rails, lights, lasers, night sights, folding stocks, pistol grip only stocks, bayonet lugs, speed safeties and other "tactical" accoutrement not commonly found among hunting firearms.

Strange how a hunter and shooter and former DUC president was appointed a seat on the FAC. Hand picked to endorse liberal agenda imo. I vote no
