I believe that our capabilities as a "militia defending a free state" are limited when we can't own, or are hassled for owning FA firearms.
I know, and I thought about including those but I didn't want it to get wordier than it already was.The Second Amendment, 1776-1986: "The Right of the People to Keep and Bear Arms shall Not be ingringed"
The Second Amendment 1986-2009: "The privilege of the people to keep and occasionally bear "sporting guns" shall be subject to "reasonable" restrictions"
I think you left out 1934 and 1968 in your sweeping generalization, not to mention the various denials to certain groups in the 18th and 19th centuries.
You know, part of the advantage to owning a machine gun is that it is usually select-fire; meaning that you don't have to shoot it in full auto.
Ok, Earp. The AR15 is the civilian model of the full auto M16. There never was and never has been a full auto AR15. The AK47 is full auto. The look alikes are SKS type weapons such as the AK74.
AK74 aren't among them.
Either that or they were fully aware of the true intent of the 2a and it scared them because they had no intention of serving the people rather than ruling them.
I think they should allow .22. But anything bigger, imagine what those freaks that shoot up mallls would do.
Lots of people around here have FA weapons, including me, and I've never seen anyone shoot them in semi-auto mode. There is no sense in that, spending all that money and firing one round at a time?

Also the ATF does not come knocking on your door if you own FA. I cannot believe some of the stuff I'm reading here.
i shoot my FA ar15 in semi more often than full.
if it's just a toy, then yeah, why not shoot it in full?
if it's a tool, use as appropriate
Anyone who is against this has had the wool pulled over their eyes for too long. This is the ideal that this country was founded on, FREEDOM to do whatever the heck you want as long as you don't hurt another person. In my opinion, this relates to Firearms, Drugs, Sexuality, Religion, Gambling, Prostitution, Seatbelts, Helmets, etc... If it doesn't hurt another person, why does the government care how YOU spend YOUR life? They shouldn't.

Quick question. When you get the FA weapon you do have to sign something saying you will allow for warrantless searches, don't you? I'm not sure if that is true, but that is what a FA dealer I talked to said.
well ther is an AK74, its just a re chambered AK 47
