those who participate in interstate commerce require a license

you can do anything you want on your own

Fair.

there is a bright line between commercial and personal

Machine Gun according to the BATF and the NFA (Law) is any select fire (Capabale of multiple shots per trigger pull) firearm

and I am fine with that line

Still, if you’re going to sell guns, you do need a license.

yes

Yes FFL

or buy them

I’d be fine with that being a federal law.

to buy, there is the whole background check system

People freak the fuck out about 3D-printed guns, yet they do more damage to the owner than the target.

I’m actually a Democrat, but I think they’re going about gun control the wrong way.

@Phalynx Sure. Also, large calibers haven't been a big problem so far. I'm just surprised to meet someone who owns that much firepower.

I disagree with Democrats on guns, immigration, and the death penalty.

I mean, I understand background checks, but restricting the guns themselves? Nah.

I think fully automatic weapons should be limited to the military and law enforcement, however.

they are limited to permitted persons

and the license for any of that stuff is very restrictive

Good.

Full-auto guns are much less accurate, since the constant firing will increase recoil and throw you off.

... spray and pray

The thing people don't talk about to with "PArts kits" guns is that they are what allowed Europe to keep millions of "MAchine Guns" out of the hands of criminals after the collapse of the Warsaw Pact.

the real full autos actually are quite accurate - the gunner simply adjusts based on results

My sister once said that if a woman committed a mass shooting, no one would invoke the Second Amendment. I told her that was counterintuitive.

And it was subsidized by American sportsman

@Khanclansith What do you mean?

Banning Parts Kits guns would make the world less safe.

I understand that some people don't like guns, but that doesn't mean that you should get of all of them from everyone just because one guy was a psycho.

Gun control has honestly become Don Quixote charging windmills.

In fact, we should teach more people on how to use guns, since most gun deaths are accidents.

I know enough about guns to know you should aim to the ground when reloading and put your finger to the side of the trigger when not firing.

Right?

it is best not to shoot yourself, yes

Never point a gun at something you don't intend to kill.

@Illyrian The Commies buit enough Full Auto AKS for every adult to fight WW3, After the Soviet Empire collapsed Eastern Europe had tons of AKs floating around. The americans sent suits in to make deals with the EE leaders. They set up companies in Europe who bought the carbines from the government, and completely took them apart, scrapped the Full Auto parts and Receiver and then shipped all the rest of the parts back to the states for sale to Americans

Is what I said proper gun-handling?

Always treat it like it's loaded.

@Khanclansith I am aware of that.

@Illyrian The Parts Kits came into the states as bags of parts, now to be made here in the states, they have to be built on US made receivers. The end result was despite corruption, it was more proffitable to destroy the AKs and send to parts than to sell them on the black market.
