What's the difference between heavy regulation, and an outright ban? I am, quite unfamiliar with the terms someone has to go through to own an automatic weapon, but I imagine, it's not easy. Is it really a thought that a ban, that would effective only remove the guns from law-abiding citizens, not criminals, really do anything? How many crimes that are committed with automatic weapons, are done so with properly owned/registered/etc auto weapons?
Last I knew the last case of a crime being committed with a legally owned fully automatic weapon the perpetrator was a cop. Just an interesting bit of useless gun trivia.
I am not sure what the current laws were but you had to be a boyscout and pay a lot of money to own a full auto. There was a gun shop in Phoenix with a range where you could run a clip through their house guns in full auto mode. That was fun. Also how I know at 40 yards Rambo couldn't have put more than 3 or 4 rounds into a deer. I shot a heavy barrel with a compensator and at 6'5 and about 280 I still couldn't hold it steady.
