In a stressed society with low friction access to fierams, buying an assault rifle is just working your way towards Nash equilibrium. Terrifying.

- mindcrime 7y agoDo you mean an actual assault rifle, or just a "scary black gun" that is functionally equivalent to any other modern semi-automatic hunting rifle (and shoots lower powered rounds than many common hunting rifles)? If it's the former, there's nothing low-friction about it. You have to fill out more forms, pay more money, get more background checks, etc. etc., yadda yadda, and you can't buy any such weapon manufactured after 1986. https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/its-still-legal-to-own-a-machine-gun-its-also-extremely-difficult-and-especially-expensive https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/its-still-legal-to-own-a-...
