First off "banning" something just makes it more desirable not less
but if every AR in the country disappeared, a person who wanted to
kill a lot of people would buy a cheap AK47 clone or a Mini 14. That
is basically the same gun down range. The AK actually shoots a bigger
bullet but the ammo is just as cheap and there are plenty of
magazines, up to 100 rounds or so. That was the evil gun in 1993-4. It
just fell out of favor.
I bet in the private market they were not getting more than $250 300
for them a couple weeks ago but I am sure they are more now.
You really don't see a lot of those old thumb hole models around but
they sold a couple million during the ban so I am sure there are
plenty gathering dust somewhere.
So, give up, huh? I guess nothing can be done to prevent children from
being murdered on a regular basis. I guess we just have to get used to
it, right?
I don't care about all the technical data on any particular weapon. The
only thing I am interested in is which one is used most often in these
mass killings. No need for them to be so easily obtained and used.
The problem is you are thinking like someone looking backward and not
forward. If you are a troubled kid who wants to shoot up your school,
any gun will do. If there are no guns, you just start looking for
other weapons, perhaps even being worse.
You have been around industrial chemicals. Certainly it does not take
a lot of imagination or google searching to figure a way to cause
mayhem.
Chlorine gas, typically found in the back of a swimming pool service
truck, springs to mind.
(Yes commercial pool companies shock pools with gas)
