    Czech Anti-Terror Plan: Arm Citizens to Battle Jihadists

    After witnessing disarmed French civilians cowering before a few Islamists rampaging through Paris with illegal guns, top officials in the Czech Republic are determined to ensure that similar tragedies do not strike in their own country. Following recent comments by Czech President Miloš Zeman urging citizens to arm themselves in preparation for a potential “super-Holocaust” perpetrated by jihadists flooding into Europe, senior government ministers in the Eastern European nation are now proposing a constitutional change authorizing the use of firearms by citizens against terrorists. However, reports suggest the proposal might also be used as a vehicle to comply with unpopular and illegitimate new European Union decrees attacking gun rights and law-abiding gun owners.

    I had always heard that the Czech Republic had about the best gun laws in Europe.

    Many of us already have enough weapons and ammunition, probably not 22LR. We do not need to rely on government issue. Some of us still have a minuteman mentality. An armed citizenry can be a good deterrent, even for a jihadist. The ones programmed to kill innocents understand only one thing--a quick trip to eternity.

    Even so, come, Lord Jesus.

    They had (during WW2) a reputation for tanks as well! I was looking for a M16 to rebuild till someone on the board advised me about a Czech rifle.

    An '03-A3, 30-06 with a firing pin works just fine--also good for deer hunting.

    Even so, come, Lord Jesus.

    Tell you the truth, I really like an M1A (308 Winchester).....however you cant deer hunt with any rifle in New Jersey. Shotgun only.

    Thee M14 is a beautiful rifle, and .308 is a superb hunting round.

    But the USA shouldn't have adopted either. An FAL in the original caliber would have been groundbreaking
