I'm sure, as a Brit, you do find "assault rifle" ownership absurd but that's coming from someone in a country where it's illegal to carry the small Kershaw lock-blade pocket knife I carry in my pocket every day and everywhere. I may or may not need an "assault rifle" but my needs and wants are determined by me alone. As it stands I already have a few "assault rifles" and in time and if finances allow I might add more. In fact, I'm going to take one of mine shooting today.

....and equally absurd was "the only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun, is a good guy with a gun". This logic is just bogus and stupid.
You must have gotten that from me because I've said that in one of these "gunz-r-bad" threads.
Coming from you being called bogus and stupid is a compliment so thank you so much.
I suppose you, like many misguided others, think we can ban them and they will all just magically vanish into thin air. NOT.

I just dont see why anyone needs such a gun and if you really want one - join the forces
Joining the armed forces does not give you an assault rifle it lends you one only as needed and under strict guidance for training and duty use only.
Helps to know a little bit before going off.
