162. Handguns are the real threat...
What purpose are they put to...It must be none or illegitimate. They are in use.

Lat us ban auto's capable af speeds in excess of 70mph. They are a clear threat.

Yes it was initaially a civilian firearm because the military had no interest. I don't think Barrett designed the rifle with the intention of a military arm, unlike Stoner, who actively marketed the AR-15 to military, esp. LeMay.

I don't think that the .50's are used to shoot people through brick walls. How many times has this happened?
