Maybe I can't read between the lines in a gun subreddit but they weren't talking about grandfathered collectors items but buttstocks and rotary crank "hacks". Didn't saw anyone mention machine guns or LA bank robbers either.
- post_break 9y agoThat's because you need to be specific with your language. Your original comment on here mentions how you thought full auto guns were banned, so I tried to clarify that. When I first heard the shooting the first thought I had was which device did he use to fire so rapidly and what the repercussions might be. This type of thinking always happens because a hobby (or if you feel strongly, a right) you care about will instantly be attacked with false information. Gun enthusiasts try to pick it apart and come up with what it could have been, and the repercussions might be. There were plenty of people who thought he modified the guns to be full auto, I was one. Sliding stocks usually work like crap, and good luck practicing because most gun ranges ban them because you can't aim with them. My point is just because people who enjoy guns dissect a tragedy to the 100th degree the second it happens, doesn't mean they don't care about anyone but themselves, they just know people who don't know the difference between an AR15 and an M4 or that suppressors are still loud enough to get hearing damage when used will attack your hobby. When a plane goes down you want to know why and I'm sure pilots do the same exact thing. No you can cry apples and oranges, but before you do please try to put yourself into the mind of the "other" side.
