Its not the gun, it's the large capacity magazine that makes that style of semi auto the weapon of choice. In Tooths own words, something to the effect, not exactly word for word, "200 years of our countries independence, and we've pretty much destroyed it in the last 60". Which would pretty much take in the era of high firepower semi automatic weapons. There were a few Tommy guns in the hands of outlaws before that, but even Bonnie and Clyde and Dillinger didn't willingly kill innocent people for sport. I've asked the question a couple times what earthly purpose in civilian hands anything more than five rounds is necessary. If someone can give a good reason other than he couldn't kill his coyote in the first 275 yards, so now he thinks he can get the job done if he just had more bullets in his magazine. I'm as big an outdoorsman as they come, and my top two weapons of choice, and the ones if have killed by far the most of my deer with in the last thirty years are a bow and single shot muzzleloader. I cannot even remember the last time I needed a second shot to cleanly harvest my game. Not counting pheasants of course, but I don't use a semiauto rifle on them.
