This appears to be a poorly written article against fully automatic weapons... which is sophistry at best as they have been illegal in the US for quite some time.

It is indeed a poorly written article, but, I can go buy a fully automatic weapon any day of the week right here in the good ole US of A, if I'm willing to shell out the buck's and pay the TAX! They are not illegal in the US. Blackbird.

As I recall there are increasing limits on the production of full auto weapons for sale to the non-governmental market. No point in getting an HK MP5SD if you can only get a 10 round magazine. That is where DOJ/BATF is headed. Sure, you have a 2nd Amendment right to own a gun - we just won't let anything other than .22 LR caliber single shot rifles be manufactured, and no handguns at all will be built. They will call it a "safety" law, but it will amount to the same thing as confiscation. We must insist that if a weapon is good for the police or military then it is good for the citizens.
