chickenfeetVarious technical discussions about Cheney's lawyer hunting habits ended up with me, uncharacteristically, parked at a web site that sold ammunition. This caused me to wonder just what one could buy with out undue difficulty via the 'net.
The first thing that popped up was a US government program for selling M1 Garand rifles. They seem to have a lot of these but still feel the need to restrict sales to eight per year to any given customer.
Finding it easy to buy M14s, M16s (some still with burst capability), AK47s, Uzis and all manner of other personal weapons I got a bit more ambitious. Surprisingly, the US doesn't seem to be a great place to buy heavy weapons but there are several dealers in the UK with an impressive array of potential giftware. I was particularly drawn to the chap who had three T72s for sale. Sometimes it seems like everyone has a Hummer these days and a T72 is just what one needs to maintain cutting edge suburban soccer mom status.
