When people bring up this I don't think they realize that there are already very few limits on what you can own in the US... if you have the money. There's nothing inherently illegal about owning fighters or tanks, for example [0] [1]. If you browse through [2] you'll find plenty of examples of fully functional civilian owned large caliber cannon and artillery. So if you want your jet or tank to be fully functional that's totally doable. Cannons larger than .50 caliber and any kind of explosive (exploding rounds, bombs, missiles) are perfectly legal, but they're classified as destructive devices that require ATF approval and $200 tax to purchase (that's $200 per bomb or projectile). Of course if you're in a position like Mr. Private Air Force in the first link, you can get to buy these things pretty freely without the tax or oversight. As for needing more than 5 rounds for self defense, well, it's a bit tongue in cheek but I go along with this logic: https://www.reddit.com/r/liberalgunowners/comments/am4epf/enough_said/ https://www.reddit.com/r/liberalgunowners/comments/am4epf/en... 0: https://www.thedrive.com/the-war-zone/32869/this-man-owns-the-worlds-most-advanced-private-air-force-after-buying-46-f-a-18-hornets https://www.thedrive.com/the-war-zone/32869/this-man-owns-th... 1: https://www.hotcars.com/here-are-the-worlds-largest-private-collections-of-military-vehicles/ https://www.hotcars.com/here-are-the-worlds-largest-private-... 2: https://www.forgottenweapons.com/category/artillery/ https://www.forgottenweapons.com/category/artillery/

This is tangentially interesting but not an answer to the question.

  Please don't waste everyone's time by asking questions if you're going to summarily dismiss any response you don't like.

    It’s not about liking or disliking what you said. You did not answer the question. I asked about Where limits should be and you responded with tangential facts about current lack of limits and a lynching meme. I’d love to hear your answer if you have one to the question that was asked.
