> I’d argue that if the SC strikes down the DC ban, then there’d be no restrictions on obtaining full-auto weapons. If you can’t restrict one type of weapon on the grounds of public safety, then you can’t restrict another. Personally, I’m loving the idea of a Browning M2 on my lawn for “personal defence”

haha… wishful thinking. They would remain unattainable in any case.

While its true in some states you CAN buy and own them, many people fail to realize that ONLY pre-ban weapons can be bought (read: few available) and the prices and paperwork is INSANE. Short of owning a “rental shooting range” that can charge whatever it wants for the opportunity to fire one, it doesnt make sense to own one in any case due to cost and hassle. Best case, this restriction would be lifted, though there arent many of these weapons around to begin with that COULD ever make it to DC.
