66. The weapons you describe are used by military forces in combat. ...

A surface to air missile would only be useful if you planned to launch a terrorist attack. The idea of needing to own such a weapon for defense against a UFO is ridiculous even if UFOs do exist. If they do and are piloted by space aliens, the technology they possess is so far advanced that your surface to air missile would have as much effect on their craft as an arrow fired at a tank.

A hand grenade would be a poor choice of a weapon to use for home defense or even to stop an attack by a street criminal. If you throw a hand grenade at someone, it is wise not to be too close.

While 100 round magazines are available for your AR-15, I don't believe anyone has manufactured a 150 round magazine for sale. High cap magazines are more of a toy than a useful accessory as they commonly cause firearms to jam. The average shooter with some practice can change a 20 or 30 round magazine on an AR-i5 faster than he can clear a jam.

As I have said I have know a lot of gun owners. I have only known one that owned a 100 round magazine and that was for a .22 caliber rifle. If I remember correctly it jammed several times when he shot it on the range.

Most firearm owners support reasonable gun laws and do not wish to own weapons of mass destruction such as nuclear weapons. They see no need to own surface to air missiles or hand grenades. The exceptions might be members of a terrorist groups or some off the wall militia organizations who plan to launch a revolution to overthrow our government.

For some odd reason it seems popular for those who favor draconian gun control to try to insult gun owners. It's humorous and somewhat infantile and I see no real problem with those who do. Of course gun owners also stereotype and insult gun control advocates, so it goes both ways.

I tend to be a polite individual who finds all these insults harmless but I also feel that if our nation is ever to make any progress on improving our gun laws, both sides need to learn to treat each other with some respect. It doesn't look like that will happen anytime soon.
