Ahh yes, fascists just took control of the country, lets get rid of all semi automatic guns. Im sure the fascist supporter already have their guns, and their parents guns. So this basically just makes sure their victims stay unarmed.
Does anyone in this comment chain know what semiautomatic means?
Yes. It means that the gun is only capable of firing one bullet per single action of the trigger, and automatically re-cocks itself for you after you fire.
Fully automatic means a firearm that can shoot multiple rounds per single action of the trigger – i.e. a gun that keeps firing as long as you hold the trigger down. This is also the legal definition of what a “machine gun” is.
Also, a “sub-machine gun,” in case you ever wondered, is a machine gun that shoots pistol caliber bullets rather than rifle caliber.
Basically the only non semi automatic weapons I can think of commonly on the market are single action revolvers, break barrel shotguns, bolt action rifles and lever guns… which would become king in a non semi automatic world.
Also pump-action weapons. I’m pretty sure if semi-auto weapons disappeared tomorrow everyone would still have ARs, they’d just replace the gas tube with a push rod and convert it to pump action.
Oh geez. Yeah that’s a huge category I somehow forgot about.
It looks scary, duh.
