I'm 34x32, bro. No fat here.

Now, why not limit magazines at 18 rounds, instead of 19?

What are your thoughts on caliber size duppin?
As long as it's not something designed to pierce armor (which if I understand correctly has a lot more to do with the bullet's construction than caliber) I don't really care that much about caliber size. There's even some legitimate hunting purposes for really big calibers, for hunting particularly dangerous animals. No problem with that.

Who cares? They're still exploitative of a badly written law and very clearly circumvent its intent.
I care. Again, you want to add new laws, show some evidence that it would have a positive effect on crime. Jesus you are bad at this.

I don't have to. I want a clear loophole in an existing law corrected.
Just because a law doesn't forbid something, doesn't make it a loophole. The NFA trust is perfectly fine and doesn't contribute to crime. It's a legal construct to purchase regulated items. It is in no way a loophole.

Anyway, why not 18?

Because you're the expert and you said 19.

We can go back up to 20 if you'd like though. Or you could answer my question about what a reasonable fire rate is over a couple of seconds with an AR-15.

I didnt say we should limit at 19.

I asked why did you arbitrarily decide 20 and not 19 and then you said 19. And then I asked, why 19? why not 18?

Or you could answer my question about what a reasonable fire rate is over a couple of seconds with an AR-15.
Lets finish my questions up first and then we can get back to yours, dont want you getting side tracked or anything.

So, why not 18?

So your assertion is that the people who wrote the NFA, whose stated purpose was to basically eliminate civilian ownership of "gangster weapons" that were a huge problem at the time, purposely left in the language that enables NFA trusts to exist?

Sorry, you fucked up. We're going back to 20.

I'm assuming we're talking about people standing and not prone or at a bench.

To reliably hit anything not point blank, 1-2 rounds. You could empty a 30 rd magazine in 3 seconds, you would only hit targets vaguely in front of you. Maybe. You're just pissing into the wind with moving targets farther out than PB anyway though, unless you take the time to draw a bead. That doesn't work in most places where there are obstacles.

What do you need more than 20 rounds for without reloading, bro?

I went back up to 20 because I'm a giver.
I thought we were in this for the children, think of how many more children we will save with 18 round mag limitations instead of 20 round mags?
