A little midday funneh for ya

Seen this floating around various gunblogs and other sites, from an LA paper,

Authorities have noticed an increase in high-caliber weapons in Los Angeles. One of the most startling incidents was when a Fabrique National 57, an assault pistol used to kill big game, was found in a victim's car by detectives investigating a double-homicide last year in North Hollywood.

"You use it on large lions, tigers and bears," said LAPD Deputy Chief Michel Moore, commander of the Valley Bureau.

The Five-Seven shoots a small caliber .22 centerfire round that is somewhere between a .22 magnum, and a .22 Hornet on the power scale, both of which are commonly used to hunt small game like rabbits and squirrels, and to shoot small pest animals.  I love the Five-Seven and it's carbine counterpart, the PS-90, not because they're overpriced tacticool Euro popguns, but because they're something different, and bring out the best ignorant freakouts and crazy distortions from anti-2nd people.
