When I was 15 and drinking illegally in NYS my friends were going to CT to legally drink there at 18. If the drinking age in CT has changed I am not aware of it.

My twin brother and I were buying firearms on credit, no credit card, just our good name and reputation at paying for what we buy in due time, at 15 years old in NYS.

The Army maintains control of firearms due to liability for one reason. There is no negative for your son not keeping the firearm with him all the time. When my brother and I were on a USMC rifle and pistol team we took our service rifles AND pistols, both .22 and 45 ACP to our Baracks after shooting. Some control is kept on these firearms not because of the age of the service members but because there is not much call for those rifles to be issued on an American base except when training is imminent.

Thank your son for his service. I wish him the very best of luck.

It has ALWAYS been legal for Americans to build their own firearms. The newer use of so called ghost guns has changed nothing. I have a number of rifles, pistols and shotguns that are registered nowhere. What difference does the serial number mean to anybody? Many if not most firearms in America are not registered. IF a firearm is used in a crime and is recovered the DOJ is able to check the serial number from the factory and follow it as far as it goes. IF it has been sold through a FFL dealer then it would lead to that dealer who can then check his records for who the gun was last sold to. But if that owner has since sold the firearm and then that buyer resold it then there is no knowing who last owned it. Is that a problem for you? Why? Most firearms really are sold to honest law abiding citizens. You know of course only a small percentage of firearms are used in any type of crime don't you?

You are correct in that felons/criminals will always find a way to be armed. No matter what laws are passed, no matter if the gun is a ghost gun they will find a way to have a weapon. Many firearms are stolen and then used by criminals to commit crimes. Some police officers have had their firearms stolen. A few military armories have been broken into with machine guns and other firearms stolen. This is what criminals do.

The drinking age all over the country is 21.
Your memory is also wrong. The drinking age in CT was 21, it was 18 in New York.
Guess you killed too many brain cells with cheap boos.

Denise drank too much of that bathtub gin.

It’s a bit more than “drilling a few holes”…

Most shootings in all of our Cities are committed by career felons. Many of them are out on bail for other shootings. The Courts have been failing this Country for 60 years.We don't have a gun problem, we have a criminal problem.

Frank T Loc: New York, NY

That's not accurate.

pbearperry Loc: Massachusetts

Sorry, but it is accurate.Most of the shootings in Massachusetts where I live are committed by repeat offenders.don't forget Mass shootings are based on 3 or more people shot at one time.They are usually gang related.

NYC is certainly not the safest big city in America.

You are mistaken. Not only is it the safest big city in America but it's the 5th safest big city in the world, just behind Paris France.

I’ve said it before in different ways, but…

IF guns are NOT the problem, and you claim it is PEOPLE who are the problem, then I have to conclude that THE AMERICAN ATTITUDE must be the problem.

Fortunately, most Americans are not afflicted with this condition. Symptoms are a misinterpretation of the 2nd Amendment, and the belief that tighter restrictions on firearms signal the end of ALL FREEDOMS in America.
