"So, if someone shows up with an AK or and SKS (both of which, IMHO, are examples of a "high quality rifle"), and they are very well set up with that rifle and caliber, and meet all the other requirements, would they not be required to get a rifle in one of the "standard calibers", or would they...

Declaration of Independence I didn't mean to imply the 2nd amendments grants us any rights not already owned by natural God given law. This was spelled out in the Declaration of Independence as being “self-evident.†I believe firmly in the principle that the Bill of Rights only aims to...
