It was a great point that weaponry at the time was only single shot bores. Also remember a 4 chambered rifle with 4 barrels and 4 triggers had been created although never used do to it's enormous weight.

Which raises new questions such as:
Was an unlimited amount of a wepon can fire be allowed?
Does accuracy of a weapon play into this?

Or, possibly the most important argument----- Citizens were guaranteed by 2nd amendment to own equal or even MORE safisticated weaponry than the military used?

Like I said before, nobody is trying to ban you and me from owning an ICBM.... they are however trying to ban guns (pistols in many cities) that actually are as old as that era (18th century)...

Where to draw the line is scary as hell based on the idiots whom are in power now. I would never want to allow these washington morons to amend my roll of toilet paper, let alone the constitution!
