54. Why, exactly what do you believe the result would be?
Do you advocate the banning of chrome wheels and tail fins on cars because they make the car look fast? I don't own any so called assault weapons nor do I plan to. I do own a Remington Model 740 which was bought by my grandfather in the 1950's, he hunted deer with it. When he died my dad used it for his deer rifle, I shot my first deer with it when I was 13. When my dad died I took the rifle. A few years ago my son shot his first deer with it. The mechanism works exactly like that of many so called assault weapons, which is like the mechanism of some of the most popular hunting rifles sold for over 100 years.





What is your plan for outlawing these guns? How do you intend to compensate me for my property? Keep in mind there are millions of these 'assault weapons' in private hands with a minuscule percentage ever used for anything more than entertainment and hunting.
