Well at least he didn't use the phrase "assault rifle"

He said "assault-style pistol".  That's close enough to stupid for me.

Looks to me like the new stupid is stupider than the old stupid.

 

 

[Alpo]

Y'all obviously ain't old enough.

 

First, I never heard of a Hamhumg pistol.

 

Second, "fires the same ammo as an M16"? My Ruger #1 does that. Big whoop.

 

But third, in the early 80s, when Interdynamics brought out their wonderful toy, the KG-9, that (eventually) became the Tec 9 - they advertised it as an "assault pistol".

Hamhung is a city in North Korea.

Based on the sensationalist phrasing of the rest of the article, I'm willing to bet that unnamed rifle that 'shoots the same ammunition as an M16' is either a single shot or bolt action.

[Three Foot Johnson]

I have a rifle that shoots the same ammunition as a B52 Stratofortress.

The KC Star's columnists are far left crazy anti-gun and frequently produce columns along those lines.

 

Although rare, the paper did find time to do this 4-part series. I'm surprised the editors published this series.

The final statement in the article pretty well assures that this puke will get a light sentence, if he is sentenced at all, and turned loose on the streets again.

[Chili Ron]

Howdy,

Cause its the guns that are evil, the puke is just misunderstood.

Might not be sometime soon...

Hamhung sounds like an auto corrected handgun to me.

[Abilene Slim SASS 81783]

Sounds like a writer who doesn't bother to proof his work.

[Smuteye John SASS#24774]

If they have a Hamhung (as in smoking it or making prosciutto) that could be an alright place to be- as long as there's enough cheese and crackers or hard crusted bread to go with it.

[Pat Riot]

Man, you all are totally uniformed. EVERYBODY who’s anybody knows what a Hamhung is...sheesh! 

[Ramblin Gambler]

I keep thinking it's another way of saying hamstrung. 

[Tennessee Trapper Tom]

So North Korea is going to get their Ham hung with a magnum. Secret code for our button is bigger!
