The problem with semi-automatics is that unless you are high skilled after the first round is fired it's a crap shoot... A 9mm has quite a recoil and when fired very quickly, as in as fast as one can pull the trigger, the rest of the shots go where they want... This is true especially in the hands of someone in a real life scenario where the adrenalin is pumpin'... This would be a good handgun to regulate...

But I can go buy one just about any time I want to in Richmond, Va. during one of their one-a-month, arm-a-thon gun shows where all you need is cash...

Actually, I'd like to see all semi-automatics regulated... That means registration (no exceptions) and gun safety certificates required to purchase one...

Fir mom and pop afraid of the bad guys comin' in their house there are plenty of much safer guns than semi-automatics...Especially 9mm which is a purdy danged bigass slug...
