Automatic weapons are very hard to obtain.  You either have to be rich or politically connected or both.  The fully auto weapons available on the market are all from the vietnam era and before.  I challenge you to try and legally buy an automatic weapon.  You'll find it to be cost prohibitive and very hard to get the signatures required for ownership.  What you see in gun stores are semi-automatic weapons.  The assault rifles look mean but it's just a look.  They have been made to function the same way a non-bolt action hunting rifle does.

My 12yo neighbor recently built an automatic weapon using a diagram she found on the internet.  Her buddy - also 12 or 13 - spent much of the summer experimenting with homemade explosives.

Idiot.  You think banning guns is going to work?    Lol.   

Scoped in bolt action .308 can be just as deadly.

Wouldn't matter.     Revolver w a few speed loaders would have killed just as many.   


Shotgun w buck shot would have done worse.

You can shoot a semi-auto .308 pretty fast.

I agree with BMC. what I do not understand(i am pro-guns btw) is why people need guns like this? theres a deeper reason why some people have guns, some people hunt-ok, self-defense-ok but then theirs others with a strange obsession with guns do you really need an Ak-47?

Oswald had no problem, neither did the Kent State guy. And you can buy an automatic in Virginia. They are expensive as hell, but you can buy them at any gun show. I agree, you don't really need one, but the minute you start putting any restriction on guns, the floodgates open and it's only a matter of time before they are all made illegal.

Not like you can just buy something like that. You have to get a permit and a special license, and on top of that, it costs and arm and a leg.

The Second Amendment wasn't written with "Personal use", Self Defense from common criminals, or Hunting in mind.
