Personally I don't have a problem with "A" waiting period.
But I don't see the point with a waiting period if I already own a gun. What's the point?
Also I don't think anyone could point to an instance where a waiting period has made any difference at all. So again, what's the point.
Just my opinion, no need to fire off flames.
“After the AR-15, I tried a larger-caliber SAR called a .302 and a couple of single-shot rifles.”
WTF is a .302 ?
When they make a Bump Stock for the Mini-14, I’ll be the first to get one.
“The Reisings had reliability issues in combat—so much so that some units discarded them and used ‘03 Springfields (bolt-action rifles) instead.”
That appears to be the case, Smokin’ Joe:
“Quickly despised by front-line Marines, Lieutenant Colonel Merritt A. Edson, Commander, 1st Marine Raider Battalion, ordered that Reisings be flung into Guadalcanal’s crocodile infested Lunga River, as his troops resorted to reliable bolt-action Springfield rifles.” - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M50_Reising
