i think one of the moderators should continue this discussion in another forum.
I think it is ridiculous they sell guns with such destructive capability such as a semi automatic. But I put none of the blame on the gun company, they cannot be responsible for the idiots that handle their guns... Its a ridiculous argument.
Wait a minute. I think you mean fully automatic (which they don't sell), you can not possibly mean semi-automatic. Do you know what a semi automatic is?
You are right I have no idea what the hell a semi-automatic or even a automatic at that even is. Like I have said, I have never held a gun in my life.
A semi-automatic is a gun that reloads it self, but it is still a single fire weapon. It fires one bullet each time you pull the trigger. This is the sort of gun every cop carries. 90% of all hunting weapons are semi-automatic, 98% of all hand guns are semi-automatic. A fully automatic weapon is an 'assault weapon' or a 'machine gun', you pull the trigger, and bullets will keep firing until you let go.
That's interesting... I'm surprised I have never held a gun before, Nebraska is big on hunting.
Godbless, Tadpole.
