Significantly, the government expressly acknowledges that non-automatic firearms up to .50-caliber – including modern semi-auto sporting rifles such as the popular AR-15 and similar firearms – are not inherently military.

Another great job by the two Larrys. These guys are doing a great job. They were responsible for the Heller decision among others.

That reminds me I need to send them a check. I have sent them so much money, they gave me a plaque which I display in my front window. You should consider sending them some money.

Begin ‘splody-head’ watch...

I am of the opinion that Cody and the folks at DD are fighting the good fight. One tactic in fighting against the gun grabbers is to make it easy to build guns. DD is selling the Ghost Gunner 2 for about $1,600 which is a CNC mill that will turn 80% blanks into one of four frames:

AR-15 frames
DPMS 308 frames
1911 frame
Glock frame

I am of the opinion that there is more work to be done by DD, such as:
- a file to mill a block of aluminum (0% frame / billet) into an 80% receiver.
- a file to mill a reusable mold that will allow a person to cast either a billet or an 80% receiver
- casting of parts for trigger assembly
- casting of parts for a barrel machine

Well now, wait.

Didn't the original Miller decision confirm that the Second protects military grade firearms specifically because the militia needs to have military grade firearms?

The whole NFA thing ignores the law in regulating automatic weapons.

So why now is the focus on what is not a military weapon? Second supporters ought to be saying, You bet your ass it's a military weapon - and it should be an automatic weapon without government consent, just like the military provides. That's how we prevent tyranny.

What are the legal implications for “assault weapon” bans?

“So why now is the focus on what is not a military weapon? Second supporters ought to be saying, You bet your ass it’s a military weapon - and it should be an automatic weapon without government consent, just like the military provides. That’s how we prevent tyranny.”

I concur, along with millions of our fellow patriots. That fight needs to be ongoing. Our liberties are taken a piece at a time, and will only be restored a piece at a time. Sometimes the fight is to prevent the forward steps of the enemy. Other times the fight is to recover liberties taken from us.

"Second supporters ought to be saying, You bet your ass it's a military weapon - and it should be an automatic weapon without government consent, just like the military provides. That's how we prevent tyranny."

Then after the confirmation in process, we need another good man on the Supreme Court. And for that, we need to make sure that all of our neighbors get the Republican vote going in the midterm elections for members of Congress. There was a good reason for the language used in the case, and it will be discussed at a better time.
