But as far as gun control goes, the big problem is the gun industry, not governments or gun control. Guns stick around for a long, long time, generations in fact, yet the manufacturers need to keep producing and move their stock. Where does this stock go? Well manufacturers claim they don't know and do not claim any responsability for their guns getting into illegal hands. Which is a lame excuse and they are turning a blind eye.

Every other company in the Western Hemisphere practically tracks their products to their market and end users and know who is doing what with their widget.. Marketing needs this info as does the Warrenty department.
If gun manufacturers showed some responsability and only sold appropriate volumes (to satisfy us, law abiting citizens) we would not need gun control laws or governement intervention. And probably most of the gun industry would collapse too.. Marketing needs this info as does the Warrenty department.

Are you friggin kidding me with this line of bull crap.
There are 80+ million gun OWNERS in the United States. How many of thosegun ownersdo you think own just one gun? Most of them own multiple guns and a whole bunch of them own enough to fill up several safes and closets.
I am sure that General Motors, Ford, Chrysler, ets... know exactly where all of their cars are and just who exactly is driving them around. I suppose that they should be held responsible for some trailer trash POS getting into a 1974 Ford thunderbird drunk and killing a family of four. Because, as you said, Every other company in the Western Hemisphere practically tracks their products to their market and end users and know who is doing what with their widget..

What a bunch of BS. I am truely sad to know that a pro-firearms person would think this way..
To answer the original question....... Yes we absolutely need semi auto firearms. It's not about hunting but about needing to overthrow a corrupt government should the need arise like it did 232 years ago.
