We need to make sure we don't have weapons out there that are really designed for the battlefield, and not for hunting."

I have an idea, Al. You contend that these semi-autos belong on the battlefield. You go to any Marine or army infantry unit, and offer to substitute these AR-15s you claim are "weapons of war" for their M4 carbines, or any other weapon they have. I'd be very surprised if you had more than ZERO takers! Because these are NOT weapons designed for battle. They're just rifles designed to LOOK LIKE military weapons. Sort of like claiming that hood scoops and racing stripes on a car makes it a racer which needs to be banned from city streets and highways!
