If you can honestly tell me that there is a legitimate use for an M246 outside of combat, I'd sure like to hear it. I don't like being told what I can and can't own, but it makes me feel a tad bit better some nutcase can't (legally) own them either.

Do I have a legitimate use for a M246 at this moment in time, no not really, nor do I own one. Is there a potential that it may come in useful one day if the Shit hits the fan, I hope not but I'd rather be safe then sorry.. I can't honestly say that I wouldn't want one. The fact is I don't have the money to go out and buy a fully automatic assault rifle, or have the money to burn on ammo for one. Last time I check, my AK and SKS were both semi-auto, along with all of the rest of my guns with the exception of my Pump shot gun, and Single shot shot gun. If shit started going down, I can promise you one thing though, the AK and SKS would be my first choice to defend myself. Start with a high powered rifle, and try to get them before they were close enough to fend off with my AK and SKS, then resort to the AK and SKS if need be, if I still needed it.. The shotty would be close quarters to hopefully finish the job.
As for that nutcase neighbor that owned an M246.. I'd feel better knowing that my next to neighbor had one honestly. There are more good people in this world then bad, and most that are serious enough to own an M246 would be the person I'd want standing next to me if shit did hit the fan.
It's a proven fact that no-gun zones don't stop crime or violence, neither do gun bans. If I were a criminal I'd much rather hit up some place that I knew had no potential of defending themselves. Whether it be with buck shot or a 7.62x39 round. All of these College shootings are prime example.
We agree to disagree on this topic. I don't expect any to agree with me either. We are all entitled to our own opinions.
