What’s funny is that even the ATF even stated that the FedAWB was pointless because most crimes were not committed with weapons that were considered assault weapons, and there was no decrease in crime in the 10 years it was in place. That’s one of the reasons the Bush Admin decided not to renew it despite bills being brought up in Congress (other reason being he would lose Republican voters if he did renew).

Also, with a full-auto Mac10, the dude would only be taking out ceiling tiles, not humans lol.
