I’ve read there are around 15 million AR-15s in circulation. I assume only a small percentage would be turned in if they were made illegal. The purpose of such a law isn’t to “get guns off the streets” but to criminalize whole classes of Americans that Democrats don’t like.

Under the much ballyhooed Australia gun ban, only about 20% were turned in. And you're right. With an 80% non-compliance, the Dems would turn millions of innocent people into criminals overnight just by decree.

“...the Dems would turn millions of innocent people into criminals overnight just by decree.”

While blissfully unaware that those millions of innocent citizens are now ARMED criminals.

Cops go to citizen’s door knowing that there is an AR-15 inside the house (How? What registration law?) likely in the hands of an angry owner. Won’t end well.
