AK platform and 30 round magazines??
....Look at NY to see the answer. If one begins with an unshakeable assumption that guns cause violence, then whatever guns are extant must be the cause of violence. If you take away the ARs and nothing happens to crime or murder rates, well, then, it must mean we haven't taken away enough guns!
Yes because their goal is to ban guns.
Yes they would of used different guns.
My 20 rounders and Beta-mags work fine too.
Also
-The worst mass shooting was Virginia Tech. Done with 10 round mags. 32 dead, 17 more injured.
-Son of Sam shot 15, 6 dead. Six shot revolver.
-Sept 11, 2001. 3200 Americans killed. No shots fired. Razor blades and plane tickets.
Most of us here will agree.The banners would be looking a military style bolt guns to be banned. If my history is correct the Lee Enfield had a very impressive rate of fire. The Brits called it the mad minute 30 aimed shots at a target 200 yds away. Pretty impressive even by today standards. And don't forget your lever action in center fire cartridges 7 - 10 rounds as fas as you can work the lever.

if politicians really wanted to reduce gun violence in this country they could slash it at least in half within 12 months -- just legalize and regulate the street drug industry. Tax the hell out of it, make government subsidized drug treatment and educations programs easily available with said tax revenue, and lets the Crips, Bloods, MS13 and all the rest get reduced to stealing hubcaps and car stereos...
If semi-automatic rifles and handguns did not exist, the gun control group would be trying to ban or severely restrict everything just like now. They just haven't gotten there yet like England or Australia.
