Title: Does Kerry own a Chinese assault rifle?
Post by: Sox62 on September 20, 2004, 01:02:03 PM
He seems ti imply he does in an Outdoor Life interview.
Quote,"Kerry: My favorite gun is the M-16 that saved my life and that of my crew in Vietnam. I don’t own one of those now, but one of my reminders of my service is a Communist Chinese assault rifle."

He is probly talking about a SKS. It was Russian, but the chinese had a crrap load of em. It doesnt have a detachable mag, so its technically not an assault rifle, they only called it that because of the bayonet, and semi automantic fire, and the fact that it shoots 7.62x39mm. which eas standard Commy ammo. It probly reminds him of his service because vietnamese troops loved em due to the ruggedness of the rifle, u could throw it in the mud, pick it up and shoot it.:aok

JOHN KERRY WAS IN VIETNAM!?!?

See this is why I hate this guy.

Nothing but political opportunism here, but he does not even do it well.

The M-16 is my favorite because it saved my life and my crew as I earned my 3rd purple heart...did I mention I was in VIETNAM??

I know all politicians do this, but Kerry is transparent, it's just sad.

Meanwhile, on topic...

John Kerrys favorite weapon is the M16, which he used to shoot a vietnamese kid in the back with.

This is the Chinese SKS:

This is a Chinese AK-47, if he has one of these he's indeed a dangerous criminal:

He bought it before he voted against it before the ban expired after he didnt vote for it.

I'm sure his family owns the illegal assault weapons, not John Kerry...

He said it was a war souviner, so it is illegal for him to have it, no matter what type of gun it is.

I don't know about you, but reliability never reminds me of the M16.

Whatcha talking about?  My understanding is that a Vietnam era M-16 can be relied on to jam regularily.
