    Fully auto weapons are banned? I think you'll find that's a common misconception, along with silencers (suppressors).

    Edit: words mean things; when arguing cases such as this it is imperative to get the terminology correct. The fact that semi-automatic and automatic are commonly misrepresented, along with the fact that a vast swath of people think machine guns are banned indicates that there is a certain amount of misunderstanding about certain facts (putting it mildly).
