Here is how the dictionary defines firearm:
(Military / Firearms, Gunnery, Ordnance & Artillery) a weapon, esp a portable gun or pistol, from which a projectile can be discharged by an explosion caused by igniting gunpowder, etc.
They meet this definition. And the NRA doesn't care what company it represents, as long as it ignores America. It is like any other repig organization - it would sell its grandmother for a penny.
So, answer the question. I'm waiting. Stop dodging.

LOL indeed. The "20,000 laws" NRA talking point might be the dumbest one of all.
