The only “need” discussion related to the Second Amendment should be regarding whether someone needs a government handout to purchase guns and ammo.

No one “needs” a government handout. We have charity for such things, and to mistake government coercion for charity is to mistake the darkness for the light, arguing that they’re exactly the same thing, or that the darkness is superior to the light.
Of course. I just want to go on the attack when someone brings up a “needs argument” against us.
But for a long time we did have the CMP with extremely low prices for semi-auto rifles and ammo. I see nothing wrong with disposing of obsolete military gear in this manner.
