£23,000, I'll give it a miss.A "sniper rifle" is just another name for a high-priced bolt-action hunting rifle with an expensive scope on it. Most of those shoot the same caliber round we use out west for elk.
I could do just as well with my old Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk1 Lend-Lease British .303 that we manufactured for you folks back during WW2.
Of course, it only has a vintage steel-tube Weaver fixed-power 4X scope on it. Give me something with a higher power and a Mil-Dot reticle and I could probably hit a man-sized target at 1,000 metres.

We had to shoot some old rifle in cadets as teenagers, some bolt action thing. They weighed 3 tonnes, solid wood and steel, lol. The kick off them was unreal, one lad didn't pull it in tight enough into his shoulder. The squeal and squirm was so funny. Don't see those about these days, too old and too powerful for domestic use.
Many rifles and guns are not needed in a domestic situation.
In America we have guns for self-protection, guns for hunting, and guns for collecting, but most of all, they're just fun to shoot: The loud "Bang", the smoke, the flash, the recoil, and the ability to put a small piece of metal in an exact spot at a distance.
They're a poor-man's game of "golf" if you think about it: Being able to propel an object far away and put it in a precise spot. I suppose a person could just as well be conked on the noggin with an errant golf ball on the course, as they could accidentally be shot on a gun range. But most legal gun-owners observe the four rules of firearms safety, so accidents rarely happen.
I have a range on my own property that I use for handload development. I load my own ammunition for 10 different calibers, and the range has a large hill behind it with no neighbors for at least a mile. It's not unusual to hear neighbors across and down the highway shooting their own guns at targets on their property. One guy up the way even has some full-auto weapons. I used to hear him shooting them usually around Independence Day, before the price of ammunition rose during the pandemic.
As Europeans have been pacified, they generally do not understand Americans.In America we have guns for self-protection, guns for...
You mean, wondering why we all have to live like this.As Europeans have been pacified, they generally do not understand Americans.
To be fair, this is somewhat less the case for Europeans who lived under Soviet rule.
Either way - there's no benefit in trying to explain it to them, and there's no need to care about what they think.
Anyone frightened at home -In America we have guns for self-protection
and Gun BUbbas are a joke. They will shoot themselves in the foot long before they ever get a chance to use their gun to defend themselves/ No one lies more then a Gun Bubba. There foot would be fine but it's the next door neighbors child or their own kids that get filled with the lead. These people are the last people in the world that should ever be allowed to even have a gun. Households are getting rid of guns big time but the number of guns being sold has gone through the ceiling. These guns are going to Gun Bubbas that have a household full of guns. Is that goofball enough for you. These shits think they need guns to kill democrats for Trump. Biggest threat to the second by far are the gun bubbas in this country, Gun Bubbas that most Americans would just assume shouldn't even have a gun.
Oh, we have a bunch of NRA apologists who do this, but he's the worst, he usually spams these threads with pages of how we don't really have that many mass shootings once you up the body count to five white people.
You want guns limited to the rich, the well-connected, police, and criminals.Well..... I can't argue that.... In my opinion people should be required to take 6 weeks of classes and instruction..... If you have to get a learner's permit before you get a license.... I don't see why there shouldn't be a similar process.
No not at all....I think it is important for a new gun owner to be familiar with safety, storage, upkeep and ultimately legal usage.You need 90 days observation.
No, he posts things you react to like a vampire to garlic soaked in holy water: FACTS.

I agree: start teaching it in elementary school!No not at all....I think it is important for a new gun owner to be familiar with safety, storage, upkeep and ultimately legal usage.
Hell yeah!I agree: start teaching it in elementary school!
anyone who names themselves M 14 shooter has a micro dick.You mean, wondering why we all have to live like this.
Active Shooter Drills. See through backpacks. Security guards. Metal detectors.
But, no, no, it's the Europeans who got this wrong by limiting who can have a gun.
