Nah, it was a one time event. It will never happen again.Perhaps this will force all gun manufacturers to lobby for better controls, training. And perhaps rethink how they market their wares .
Exactly this: if a rifle isn’t capable of at least burst fire less common now than full auto?), and isn’t chambered for a standard military cartridge, it doesn’t matter what it looks like, or what the magazine capacity is. If it IS capable of auto-fire (full or burst), the mag capacity becomes a risk multiplier…but not otherwiseAn assault rifle is a carbine-length weapon with a control that allows the operator to select. “safe, single shot, full auto”, and generally chambered for a cartridge of intermediate power.
it does make it easier to carry more rounds if they're loaded into fewer magazines, and doesn't require them to stop and reload as often...which aren't desirable traits for most people. i get what you're saying, but high capacity mags do make it easier to commit mayhem, even with a semi autoExactly this: if a rifle isn’t capable of at least burst fire less common now than full auto?), and isn’t chambered for a standard military cartridge, it doesn’t matter what it looks like, or what the magazine capacity is.

This case wasn’t about “what’s an assault rifle”. Remingtons marketing for this gun was a campaign of owning power and a symbol of that power. The AR was definitely not designed as a hunting weapon and Remington admitted this with their ads, that cost them 75 million, much more IMO if they didn’t settle, they had that opinion as well !Exactly this: if a rifle isn’t capable of at least burst fire less common now than full auto?), and isn’t chambered for a standard military cartridge, it doesn’t matter what it looks like, or what the magazine capacity is.

and while we're at it, let's take down whoever is responsible for those fucking horrible madea movies...those are a true crime against humanitySo why didn’t they go after the video game maker? Its high time we shut down Hollywood too, we are way past glorified gunfighters.
Some states have assault rifle definitions, so there hasn't been a universal definition for decades.Exactly this: if a rifle isn’t capable of at least burst fire less common now than full auto?), and isn’t chambered for a standard military cartridge, it doesn’t matter what it looks like, or what the magazine capacity is.

Congress defined assault style rifles clearly in the ban twenty five years ago, and by model. Didn’t do any good since the manufacturers got them reclassified as others.Some states have assault rifle definitions, so there hasn't been a universal definition for decades.
why does it motherfucking matter? one round, three rounds, twenty rounds...how fucking hard is it to pull a trigger? you can discuss this kind of ignorant shit in hell with ted bundy and kyle rittenhouse...Exactly this: if a rifle isn’t capable of at least burst fire less common now than full auto?), and isn’t chambered for a standard military cartridge, it doesn’t matter what it looks like, or what the magazine capacity is.

If that means no more Sandy Hooks. Yeah, I'm good.Nah, it was a one time event. It will never happen again.
Which is probably the reason for the state laws.Congress defined assault style rifles clearly in the ban twenty five years ago, and by model. Didn’t do any good since the manufacturers got them reclassified as others.
I don't get it either. These gun threads always devolve into minutia regarding hardware.why does it motherfucking matter? one round, three rounds, twenty rounds...how fucking hard is it to pull a trigger? you can discuss this kind of ignorant shit in hell with ted bundy and kyle rittenhouse...
dead motherfuckers are dead, no matter what you call the weapon that killed them
Nothing wrong with that. But that's not even close to addressing the issue of gun homicides in this country. What is it you say about shitty people?Which is probably the reason for the state laws.
