17. Assult Weapon
"Ecoalex, what definition of “Assault Weapon” are you using??

The “Brady/VPC definition” which is full of cosmetic items and does not concern itself with HOW the gun works?

Or the real “Assault Weapon” definition which simply states an “selective fire rifle chambered in an intermediate cartridge” those rifles I might add has been basically banned since the 1930’s"

The 30's law should do it, but it seems a new class of weapons needed to be made to accomodate new technology I would think . Hell, a baseball bat is a killing weapon , but it has limitations compared to a 50 shot clip in an automatic weapon .
