"Buy back", implies that they owned it before you did. A free man owns property and must protect it as well as his family's lives. How? With a firearm. Preferably as deadly accurate and with as many rounds as possible. Yes, something like an AR-15 / AR-10 with many standard capacity magazines.
I remember that ban. I wanted an AK 47 and couldn't purchase a true copy because of the ban. I had to buy one with a thumbhole stock. I don't think it accomplished anything but requiring buyers to buy unwanted stocks.
@@Averagegunenthusiast it was based on 3 features, so you could only have two for an import. A detachable magazine and a muzzle break, as well as a pistol grip. The importers issued a 5 round magazine, welded on muzzle break and a hideous thumbhole stock. Every purchaser immediately ditched the stock, grinded off the weld to remove the muzzle cap, purchased a muzzle break they liked and a pistol grip. The bayonet lug was another feature that importers had to saw off. It was all a silly and costly exercise in stupidity that accomplished absolutely nothing.
Today's Firearm Lesson: The AR-15 rifle is NOT an "assault rifle", or even one of the most powerful rifles today. In fact, the .223 Remington or 5.56x45mm NATO cartridge that most AR-15 rifles are chambered in is about the lowest powered rifle cartridge there is. The AR-15 rifle operates similarly to all other semi-auto rifles and pistols, so there is really nothing special about this firearm among thousands of other gun designs. Which is why this is the most popular sporting rifle today, as hunters, sportsmen, collectors, self-defense advocates and competition shooters alike love this rifle for its lightweight, modularity, precision, and low recoil. Not bad for a rifle designed in the 50s. A true "assault rifle" is a selective-fire (operates from at least two firing modes, ie. 3-round bursts and full-auto) rifle that uses an intermediate cartridge (between a pistol and a rifle) and a detachable box magazine, NOT a "clip." Examples include the STG 44, AK-47, M16, M4 etc. However, there are semi-auto versions of these rifles available. The term "assault rifle" is generally attributed to Adolf Hitler, who for propaganda purposes used the German word "Sturmgewehr" (which means "assault rifle" in English), as the name for the MP43, subsequently known as the Sturmgewehr 44 or STG 44 to strike fear in the hearts of his enemies. And still, today firearm ignorant folks are using the term "assault weapon" to spread fear among the masses to further their agenda of banning these tools. Military grade selective-fire or full-auto weapons (assault weapons) have not been used in criminal acts in the US in a very very long time. They are mostly owned by governments, law enforcement agencies, and a few wealthy people, however, they are highly regulated. What you see being used today (sometimes in mass shootings) is common sporting rifles that "look" like their military grade counterparts. But they are not true "assault weapons", nor do they operate like them.
BLD Lightpainting that analogy is all good the main focus of long guns is the amount of ammo (meaning) rounds per second, which is how so many are killed in literally seconds... So your manifesto on assault rifels is pretty much pointless. That said, sport or not no kid under the age of 21 needs to own, or purcahse that style of weapon, if you have a family memeber with interest in using it for shooting, or hunting. Go out purcahse it you keep it under lock, and key, and only allow the use of the weapon with a responsible person present. Gun ownership comes with a high amount of responsibility. If you can't buy a beer, you can't purcahse a weapon either. Period ☝️
BLD Lightpainting Do you even own a gun? Bro 5.56 travels 2 to 3 times faster than a 9mm or a 45. There is a HUGE difference in impact velocity, and aerodynamics (including rifling and green tips). I’m decently pro gun but ya don’t “need” a 30-50 round, 6ft of concrete piercing, highly modifiable gun to protect ya home

A Leaver action Rifle (winchester) can shoot just as fast as a Semiauto. The 2nd Amendment has little to NOTHING to do with hunting, or "target shooting". Those are just secondary functions. It has to do with defending the citizenry from the government
Have you read the 2nd Amendment? You have know idea what you are talking about. It has nothing to do with hunting. It was meant to put us on a EQUAL footing with the military when it came to small arms.
IAngelofFuryI lol, the mentality that we need to be prepared to go to war against the government. Jeeeze, what little faith you have in our democracy or the institutions the founding fathers put into place.

"well regulated" in 1792, was the same thing as "well regulated watch". It merely meant "put into good working order". It did not mean that the government could tell the citizens what guns they could own! "No free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms." - Thomas Jefferson, Virginia Constitution, Draft 1, 1776 "The Constitution of most of our states (and of the United States) assert that all power is inherent in the people; that they may exercise it by themselves; that it is their right and duty to be at all times armed." - Thomas Jefferson, letter to to John Cartwright, 5 June 1824 You will notice that he does not say anything about a militia.
Most murders with guns are committed with pistols, not rifles, by a wide margin. Actually, very few murders are committed with rifles. Mass shootings, even in the U.S., are very rare events.
“Ban assault riffles and scary looking weaponry” the people who preach about bans truly don’t understand what they are saying. Personally I say we should ban all cars and vehicles build after the modal T. Why would anyone need a car that drives over 40 Mph, are you such a bad driver that you need surrounding air bags and a seat belt? You should be save enough with a horn clearly when someone hears “beep beep” they will surely move out of your way and let you pass. “ personally I don’t know why you need a car, counties around the world that use bicycles have a low car accident rate.” However motorized scooter accident have spiked. Do you get the point?
I will not surrender my arms, I will not register them, I will not get a license for them. Australia is also the least populated continent on the Earth
we didn't have a school shooting in 1996 the Port Arthur shooting targeted tourists and bystanders. Also New Zealand has no mass shootings in 20+ years despite continued availability of semi auto long arms and with the right endorsement can have 30 round mags and free standing pistol grips. Good licencing and vetting makes a real difference than just banning stuff.
Every citizen in Switzerland owns a military rifle supplied by the government, but we never hear about crazy people over there. One of the main reasons Hitler didn't mess around with them was because every citizen was a marksman sniper.
All 4 categories of violent crime were already on a downward trend from roughly 92/93 prior to the ban which continued until it hit a low in 2014, ten years after the ban ended. So 21 years of crime reduction, only half of which were during the ban. During that same period, firearm purchases were on a steady incline trend. Funny how the "more guns, more deaths" argument quickly falls apart when you start looking at the actual science and research. And let's not mention Vermont which has very lenient firearm laws, one of the highest rates of firearm ownership in the US, and 3rd lowest violent crime rate out of all states. Your argument is easily refuted by the empirical evidence. Bye...
Fully automatic weapons were banned for civilian ownership in May 19, 1986. It was called the Hues Amendment. So civilians like you and I can own fully automatic weapons that were manufactured and registered for civilian ownership before May 19th 1986.
ryan e Yeah, that's a recipe for disaster. I'm pro gun, but I don't see how automatic weapons would be any better then semi-auto if there is ever a time we need to defend our country.
LMGs are effective weapons, and the criminals still use automatic weapons either way so yeah I support it. It's also not even hard to convert a lot of guns to full auto.
Put the gun issue aside for a minute. SOMEBODY needs to teach the person being interviewed that normal conversations do not need to be phrased like you are on Jeopardy
Around 2% of all gun related deaths in the country are caused by rifles. And AR-15's account for small fraction of that. Maybe .5%. And it's the most common rifle in the United States.
Assault weapon is just a political term. Many of you may be surprised to know that during World War II when Adolf Hitler was presented with a rifle many may know of, dubbed it the "Sturmgewehr 44" or "Storm Rifle" for political propaganda purposes only because Adolf Hitler thought the word sturmgewehr sounded mighty and tough. so in a sense the term assault rifle doesn't have a real term because that's where it is derived from much like the term assault weapon which is just a made-up political term. However you could see the similarities between the two "Sturmgewehr" and "Assault Weapon" are *political* names to describe something.
The answer to it being effective is No due to the fact that assault weapons are no longer assault weapons if certain cosmetic or ergonomic features are removed.
Did the last assault weapons ban work? To people completely ignorant of weapons or the crime statistics of the time, yes. The US has become significantly less violent since 2004.
The interviewer is using so many cryptic, poorly defined terms that the conversation makes no sense. The interview-ee is not much better. Worthless talk, with no purpose.
If the news reports are try, this latest shooter should have never been issued a gun of any kind. What’s the purpose of a background check if it missed a detail that should have led to stopping the sale. Yet, he bought two guns. Should have been denied.

Brick Tamland so by your logic why not ban hand guns?? I literally hope you know there have been more killings last year with knifes/blunt objects/ and even firsts and feet than assault rifles. ARs are only responsible for 2 percent of gun crime. So why not ban hand guns??
