Again, dismissing the very real issue at the core of this debate. Full autos cost too much simply because of some rediculous law.
Well the first real issue is convincing other gun owners that the things are already legal. And from reading this thread there is lots of work to do there.
If you are going to ever get to a place where you go after a repeal of Hughes you have to at least make sure people understand what it is.
The misconception that full auto is illegal doesn't help with Hughes. The average citizen hears that there is talk to repeal Hughes they will believe it will "legalize full auto" which it most certainly would not do.
As long as so many people walk around thinking full auto is illegal, there's no chance of getting rid of Hughes.
So, we try to make sure gun owners know the truth about full auto; that it's legal but made artificially expensive by a silly law.
THEN you can go after that law, but not before.
