So -
My theory is that we lose out on significant innovation in firearms technology because of the prohibitions to ownership, both legally and economically.
Say the various Gun Control Acts (GCAs) and various bans were lifted.
How would that materially improve innovation in areas of fully automatic weapons, SBRs, short shotguns, etc.?
I suspect that it would drive up innovation and drive down costs dramatically, particularly for Class III type weapons. But I think that all weapons would benefit if, say, you could eliminate the FFL middle men and just buy straight from the manufucturer or wholesaler.
