"to put together the simplest kind of firearm. "

My earlier post:
And the problem of hand-made weapons is NEVER addressed- as I said, it takes two pieces of pipe, a piece of 2x4, a nail, and some duct tape to make a single shot shotgun- and that will get you whatever the person you shoot ( guard, police officer, whoever) had available.


And making them illegal gets them out of the market HOW? As I said, they are prohibited in MD. But if one wishes they can be ordered in parts, none regulated ( nor regulatable IMO) and the receiver ( illegally) completed. Passing new laws does what to make this harder or MORE illegal?
I have not opposed background checks and the FFL system. so the "supermarket" is a shitty comment.


But if I wanted a 20 round magazine, I would already be violating the law, so why shouldn't I go fully automatic, or use grenades? You make EVERYONE a criminal, and who will obey the laws you really want to have ( Like not killing people because of the color of their skin?)
