"If illegal laws are or should be ignored, why does everyone not have fully automatic weapons?"

Because pretty much anyone with experience with firearms knows that aimed fire is better than "spray and pray". Semi-auto is tactically the better choice. Which is why the gun-grabbers are after them so strongly.

I like that answer, but I would still like the 3 shot burst option I hand on my M-4 on my personal weapons. I believe that option also runs a foul of the ‘fully automatic’ law.

” staunch liberals who also happen to be devoted firearms owners.”

Hard to believe the word “liberal” could be used to describe anyone who believes in 2nd Amendment rights.

Almost certainly. It has been a long time since I looked up the way ATF tests firearms for violation, and I think even if it fires 2X for a trigger pull, it fails the semi-auto test.

That’s why it’s imperative that Trump
be RE-elected. But, of course, all
those on FR know this.
