I often question the logic behind some gun laws. Especially the NFA.
For example... short barreled rifles and shotguns are LESS effective but somehow a greater threat to public safety?
Why is a buttstock even an issue?
A handgun MUST have a rifled barrel... of course that's preferred, but why is a smooth bore pistol a greater threat?
Seems the trend is less effective firearms are considered more dangerous than improved designs.
And suppressors being NFA items is just stupid! We can't reduce the sound of gunfire without a mountain of paperwork & paying a tax, yet wearing ear protection is just fine.
Do members of Congress know ANYTHING about firearms?
