hand guns are guns - so?

Yes, my response was slow to appear here - get a grip; it is over the Christmas holidays.

What possible difference does acknowledging or not acknowledging that handguns or guns have here? I don't see any, and more than that if you don't have an economics-based comment to make, I don't see why you think anything you have to say merits a response.

And yes I'm sure your willful stupidity burns you; but I'm hoping out of the ashes, phoenix like you will rise and produce a more cogent observation. Keep trying, and as you do, remember this IS the economy group.

The gun group is located elsewhere - and I wrote about this with a view to the 2nd amendment vs the commerce clause there.

I'd be happy to help you with your burning stupidity wherever you can stay on topic; here the topic is economics.
