[QUOTE="de-evoproject, post: 1288853, member: 14169"] Wow guys. I thought I might be making a marginally unpopular viewpoint but apparently it was much worse than I thought. Ok, at buzz, yes I have. I was army infantry for 4 years and served in 2 combat deployments. I have held the positions of rifleman, autorifleman (m249), grenadier (m203), breachman (mossberg shotgun), machine gun team AR (m240b) and infantry sniper. I have had extensive training with FA AK47's, RPK's and AK74's so that I could operate enemy weapons in a pinch and train Iraqi national guard. In addition I have earned my german weapons qualification award (since I was stationed in germany) and cross trained with various other militaries on their weapons and tactics. Not saying I'm more qualified than you to form an opinion, just saying I believe I am qualified. As far as everyone else that is beating me down for my opinion, I never said that semi auto weapons can't be used to kill, that I believe fa and suppressed weapons should be disallowed or even that I believe the current restrictions aren't overkill. I simply stated that I can see where FA and suppressed weapons pose a greater threat in even less experience hands than regular semi autos and don't have a problem with their being SOME regulation (even if its less strict than what we have now) that keeps individuals, businesses and suppliers accountable for these types of weapons. Don't stress guys, I'm very pro 2nd amendment and don't want to take anything away from anybody. But we do currently live in a country where many people aren't responsible enough to hold themselves accountable and if not faced with consquences for not being accountable, they just wouldn't give a damn. On a side note, I DO feel current restrictions are a bit much and wish I didn't have spend as much time or money as its going to take to get approved and buy a suppressor but I am glad there is SOME form of accountability system in place.
