Having been in NYC two weeks ago, I can say that I would be surprised if
innocent bystanders weren't shot in every shooting incident - there are
just so MANY of them, everywhere, ALL the time. Glad to have left the
place.

Nice!
Wish you'd waited until spring, I'd probably have sprung for it, I think I'm
ready to let my 190D move on to other pastures but its got snow tires so it'll
go one more winter.
Good luck, selling cars can be a pain in the butt which is another reason I'm
slow to get rid of my 190D.

Hi all,
I am selling my 1983 300D Turobo Diesel w/ 202K for $2.995. I live
just outside of NYC in Westchester County. If anyone in the area is interested
let me know. Here is the Craig's List ad.
I have extra parts that were collected after 24 years of ownership.

As Randy has pointed out, there are fewer loose guns around in Canada
thanks to their gun laws, so there are fewer such incidents.

Are there UTQG markings on the tire, like 300AA or something?

Much harder to kill a bunch of people with a 5 shot hunting rifle,
which is probably what he had.
Handguns, at least when I lived in Canada, were VERY hard to come by,
legal or not.

Chicago and DC have even stricter laws than Canada, yet have more incidents.
Switzerland has looser laws than many places in the US, yet have just as few
incidents as Canada. Perhaps there are other factors causing large numbers
of incidents.

Too right. If I were tyrant I'd make 2 basic changes to schools.
#1. Everybody gets gun education which includes shooting. No exceptions (tyrant
remember). This education will include safety, in fact it'll have safety
instruction LONG before range time. It'll also talk a lot about ethics and dea
IDK about LA, but NYC training in firearms is very poor, as is all their
equipment and training. I trained in the same facility as they did at one
time and had the opportunity to observe them, plus heard firsthand accounts
