If you ban semi-automatics that leaves revolvers, bolt and lever action rifles and shotguns. All of which are 150 year old technology.

The AR-15 is 70 year old ArmaLite platform, in another 30 years it will be ancient technology.

“If you ban semi-automatics that leaves revolvers, bolt and lever action rifles and shotguns.”

O'Rourke is already there. He not only calls for confiscation of ARs and AKs but also firearms using “high-velocity, high impact” ammunition and any other firearm that's used on “the battlefield.”

Those afterthoughts should take care of handguns of the calibers 9mm, .38 and .45 calibers.

And rifles firing .30 caliber - not to mention those firing .50 caliber - they are gone too if Democrats get their way.

And don't forget, just in the past couple of weeks word has leaked out that a British soldier used a shotgun to kill four terrorists. Bye bye shotguns.

You'll still have .22 handguns to defend the second amendment. But only until someone remembers that .22 handguns are used by deadly assassins like Sirhan Sirhan.

Wait until they start killing people with air rifles. Air rifles are now legal for big game hunting in 16 states - I even saw a picture of a guy with a cape buffalo he killed with an air rifle. The article said you could fire several times without recharging. We’re talking .35 and .45 caliber bullets with at least 350 foot pounds of energy...

Couldn’t a revolver be considered a semi-automatic to a gun-banning liberal?

In an AR-15 a round is fired, and another one is moved into position automatically and ready to be fired. Same thing with a revolver.

And don’t let these gun grabbers show up at my local skeet field. There are a few guys there that can shoot their pump shotguns faster than guys with semiautos.
