"Every day that's what our military are using in the war in Iraq -- we need these guns on our streets? Are they crazy up there?" said Rep. Carolyn McCarthy, gesturing toward the Capitol building.

These weapons have never been available on the street and they won't be available after the ban expires.

But there might be guns that have a flash suppressor or bayonet lug. We know how dangerous they are.

I just checked my NFA class III gun store and the guns that are being used in Iraq cost about $5k, at least a 6-month waiting period and a background check. I don't think the terrorist will wait that long.

P.S. These weapons are never available at gun shows.
