early in,
I have to disagree with you. A restriction of semi-automatic rifles would be a first step toward much more restrictive gun legislation. It is true that some Semi-automatic's can be made automatic relatively easily but that is against the law. It seems to reason that if a person is willing to break the law buy altering their firearm then they would be willing to break the law and find a way to get an automatic on the black market. Something that is not that hard to do either.
I have a Marlin Model 60 .22 rifle. It is a tube fed semi-automatic. Should that be illegal also? What about handguns that are semi-automatic?
I respect your opinion but I still have to respectfully disagree.
Like I said, I fully expect many to disagree with my thinking. You agree how easy it is to turn a semi automatic into an atuto (and it is) and say it's against the law (and it is), but so is killing police officers. But they do it all the time![:@]
The problem is you are not "thinking" ,you base your views on gun control, on knee jerk emotions implanted in your mind by the anti gun media, and completely ignore the facts about gun violence and what really causes it. Go back and read a few of the posts responding to your 1st post, and try educate yourself w/ the truth, instead of allowing yourself to be programed by those who want to destroy the hunting and shooting culture and tradition in this country.
