Ok but you aren't understanding my point they are made to kill things. You can say people use them for sport but they are killing machines and they are more powerful than a normal civilian needs for anything productive. I don't feel comfortable with you having these guns. You or anyone. Senseless to let children die for that dude. Just give it up already
I don’t have one. But your comfort levels don’t make a sporting rifle into a machine gun. You’re missing the point, that guns have designations dependent upon their design, not your emotions.
