Agreed. Of course, when people say that our founding fathers envisioned hunting rifles and the need to gather food, rather than modern guns, my point is that the founding fathers were not scared of wild turkeys ... they were scared of foreign or domestic armies; therefore, if we really want to be true to the intentions of the founding fathers, the constitution protects our right to keep and bear military weapons, not hunting rifles. Every free man should own an M-16 or two.

I believe the semi-automatics are just as effective. That's why we have mini-14's, FAL's, etc. in our household.

Sovereign nations have nukes. The nukes make them sovereign. Sovereign citizens have guns. The guns make them sovereign.

I would prefer an M-14.
