The most important delineator between an assault pistol and a normal pistol is the ability to be shot sideways while held with a single hand.

the Sheriff identifies the weapon as a Cobray M-11/Nine 9mm NATO Submachine Gun.

If that is the case, then it's NOT a "semiautomatic." It is a full automatic, and those are already highly regulated.

They want all magazine type pistols and rifles outlawed. Can be fired rapidly, as fast as the ole finger can pull the trigger and slap a new mag in continue. They want every weapon on the planet. An unarmed public is a slave public. That is the One Worlder’s goal. For their goal to be achieved, America must fall.

Used a pistol, eh?
What else did the speaker expect? A water balloon ??
Dear speaker, grow up already

We don’t need to justify Americans owning firearms It is their right. Period. End of file.

But for every criminal there are 99 good armed Americans who mostly won’t give up their defenses anyway so why bother eith all the attacks and vilifications ? You’re just wasting your breath

If you’re really in law enforcement work, you’re in the wrong trade so long as you don’t support Americans’ natural and constitutionally- recognized rights. Get wise or get out. Now.

Sounds like someone has ties to Mexican drug cartels or other high-level criminal gangs, IMO.

Won’t be long until a black powder muzzle loaded rifle will be considered an assault rifle. Seems the ideal is to go back to using rocks and sticks...but some soros da will state that even rocks and sticks are semiautomatic. Becoming more apparent that there’s only one box left to protect the citizens of these United States from the ptb. But no one really wants to go there. Yet. Not pretty but pretty simple.

Yep. They'll want to ban six shooters next because of Alec Baldwin.

All weapons are ‘assault’ weapons.

My pistols and rifles and shotguns are all defense weapons. The antithesis of assault weapons.

There's no such thing as an "assault pistol". Nor is there any such thing as an "assault weapon". There are assault rifles. They are BY DEFINITION capable of fully automatic fire. If a rifle is not capable of fully automatic fire it is NOT AN ASSAULT RIFLE.

The first stories claimed that the killer had a machine gun.

Guess that didn’t fly, so on to the next term.
