So one might assume that if AR 15's are banned, a mass shooter will just go to another semi-auto rifle. How then do we prevent future mass shootings? Some kind of stronger back ground checks? But how strong? one can structure background checks so that no one will be able to buy any kind of weapons.. Too many questions with no answers.


Reform hippa laws so crazy people can be legally identified.

Who needs a semiautomatic anyway? I own a pump action long gun, a lever action long gun, three bolt action long gun, and three revolvers. The only semiautomatic I have is a 22 caliber long gun I bought for the wife to get her involved, would give it up in a NY minute if laws change. A majority of us gun owners want changes, better settle soon or later we could lose more.


Sportsmen and some h****rs need semi’s.

The 2nd Amendment isn't about your likes, or dislikes of particular weapons, and you don't get to define others' needs. Your lever-action long gun (Winchester Model 94, Savage 99, etc.) is your choice, not others. The 2nd Amendment mentions only "arms", not "arms, except for...". Your lever action can be configured, depending on the model, to fire as many as 5 rounds per second. Ever see "The Rifleman"? There are people who can shoot just as fast as he.

There are any number of semi-automatic rifles which don't resemble the AR platform at all. The Remington Models 74/7400, Browning BAR, etc., are all examples of semi-automatics, as are surplus U.S M1 rifles, and the Springfield Armory M1-A. I personally know a man who hunts with his WWII-era M1. They're also used by target shooters world-wide.

As to shotguns, you may like your pump-action, but there are any number of shotguns out there in semi-automatic configurations that are used by h****rs and target shooters everywhere. Remington, Beretta, and Browning make shotguns to just about everyone's likes. There are shotguns (Winchester Model 12) which can fire as long as the trigger is held back and the action is worked. Is that an "assault shotgun"?

Like others, you're smitten with the configuration of a firearm, instead of the shooter, which is the real problem.

And what if the "government" decides your lever action rifle, or pump shotgun is an "assault weapon" what then?
The 2nd Amendment isn't about your likes, or disli... (show quote)

It's a weapon you can use to assault someone with.


So bats, kitchen knives, all cars, motorcycles, bicycles, pointed sticks, rocks, toothpicks,
Shoes, belts, knives, hammers, screwdrivers, wrenches..... should be banned?

It's a dishonest pejorative term created by PR flacks and lobbyists employed by the gun ban lobby. Generally it refers to a 'scary-looking' rifle.

By contrast, 'assault rifle' is a specific term with a clear definition.
