Reply #45: But what about...

...the prohibitively priced Tax Stamp necessary for purchase?

The regulating Issuer of that Stamp is the very same government against whose tyranny the weapon may be used by Constitutional Law by any Citizen. That is a conflict of interest. The government doesn't trust us, plain and simple.

True, the cost of buying a tank, battleship, or large bore weapon are inherently prohibitive, but without the restrictions, small arm automatic weapons would be largely affordable. Having an Uzi submachine pistol, or a full auto AK-47 in the house would be common.

I guess I'm just saying that I haven't always been happy with who gets the "Good Stuff", let alone how they do business.
