you  mentioned checks and balances and if i recall from BASIC US history class president is cic but to balance that power out congress has the sole ability to declare war...that means the president cant just send troops on the large scale to where ever he/she wants, even small "police actions" could be considered a declaration of war, that the president has in effect just authorized...  even the notion of standing armies were a foreign concept to the founding fathers and for good reason, that is a bit more complicated issues and one that i dont even have an answer to, but if we keep making concessions with the govt and the power we give them, soon we might find ourselves homeless on the land our fathers died for...even eisenhower warned us against this

vietnam was started before congress passed it, not to mention the new information about the gulf of tonkin incident that was declassified in 2005 particularly about the second attack that may not have actually occurred....

I am very well aware of the laws regarding the declaration of war by the US against another sovereign nation.  Perhaps you are not reading thoroughly enough what I posted earlier. You just repeated everything I already pointed out about who can do what when.

The conflict in Vietnam and the unchecked use of our military is what caused those rules and laws to be instigated.  

Another bit of advice, go read the Federalist (and Anti-Federalist) Papers.  You might learn a thing or two on the thoughts of the Founders of these United States.   ;)

why worry about lead when their is fluoride in most of the drinking water in this country...thats poison right there, the difference is we dont go around consuming guns....what about BPA a plastic that is very common namely in the soda and beer cans as a lining to the inside of the can...that causes males to turn sterile and wreaks havoc with hormones....what about vaccines, they cant make those with out mercury and other substances that can cause negative health effects especially in children and babies, these are all things that probably once in a while woudlnt hurt us but these are things that people use on a daily basis, consuming and increasing our risk...none of that matter we gotta stop these air soft guns, we cant let these hit the streets of this country, because it could have poison in them...so if the govt really wanted to help us why dont they get rid of some of the poisons that we come in contact with in our daily lives, not withholding air soft guns causing businesses that employed people to go out of business...


At what point in your life did you fail to understand you are not a doctor nor a research epidemiologist? Your sharing of this mercury vaccine urban myth is as irresponsible as publicely calling for the killing of police officers in a forum for an Internet kiddy game. In Denmark after thimerosal was no longer in any childood vacciens the rates of autism contiued to rise between 1991-96. Same results here in the U.S. This whole issue came out of JFK Jr. trying to put his name in lights along side his uncle Teddy based on extreamly bad scientific research.

From the Autism Blog:

CDC: “Thank you, Sallie, May We Have Another?”

A CDC study released yesterday found no evidence to support “a causal association between early exposure to mercury from thimerosal-containing vaccines and immune globulins and deficits in neuropsychological functioning at the age of 7 to 10 years.” In other words, vaccines don’t scramble your brain.

If you read the science behind BPA (Bisphenol A ) this is more likely a possible source for the increase in autism levels in the U.S. It's use in canned products and baby plastic feeding devices has corrisponded with the advent of our high levels of autism in children. It became a standard in food and drink containers starting 50 years ago. It's effects on lab animals was documanted in the 1930's. It's wide spread use in all aspects of our lives may now be returning to bite us in the kester because of recent studies showing links to obesity, diabetes, cancer, heart disease, and defects of our neurobiology. You may have noticed there has been an ongong increase in the occurences of these issues since the end of the 1970's. But, the science is only just starting to come in.

Canadian fish population studies have shown in waters contaminated with BPA there are higher occurences of femal than male fish. It also kills some forms of planktonic life, bivalves and crustations. But, again the science is not in on the whole matter. You are simply spreading self serving histeria to serve your ideological need for a dogmatic meth fix.

You spread Urban Legend and bad science like a 13 year old.

its not an urban myth the mercury essentially is there as some sorta preservative or something from what i understand in fact their are a few substances that are harmful... i mean they admit that they can cause problems, and some vaccines have been known to harm people in the uk kids who got shots started to have convulsions  and so they stopped it for a while...and a few other countries have done the same thing...id rather get the flu like a normal person be sick for a day or two and get on with life, the flu is just a mild inconvenience most of the time...but then a few times its been a bit rough but over all its generally mild.

It's very fun, I've done it for years now with some friends, we've never really gone to any public fields or anything, though. Cheaper than paintball, I think it's more fun as well.


I advise you not to get into it.  A lot of the guns are made across seas and customs are stopping any shipment to come into U.S.  Our two local airsoft stores went under because of this.  They had orders over $20,000 that they can not get and lost all the money too.  Also, law enforcement are cracking g down on them too.  It seems that some people got creative by make these gun fire live rounds. 
That's interesting, there's always been problems with importation of airsoft guns because of copyright infringements (some companies like to be very, very detailed) but I've never heard of this (been out of the loop for a long old time though).
Bolded is impossible btw, sensationalism etc.

As in a real AK-74, receiver & stock is stamped from steel (with a bit of rust to prove it), though I believe the the rest of the steel parts are cast. All of the spotwelds and such are there as well.
Handguards are wood, although only the bottom handguard is laminated as you'd find in a real Izhmash AK, the top is just from a solid chunk of wood.
Copied just as well as the mainlanders really copied the AK47 (was made in Taiwan). :)

My friend is having a bit of magazine well trouble:

It's an M4-style D-Boys AEG, and there are some wires that have poked through the upper reciever and into the magazine well.  This appears to put pressure on the magazine catch, and I'm worried that it's only a matter of time before it breaks.  Are there any solutions?

Don't buy cheap AEG's. Anyways, can you provide a picture? This sounds like he'll have to disassemble the rifle completely.
