My favorite is the silenced sniper rifle specifically designed to fit into this bag that looks like an ordinary piece of luggage. What possible legal use could that have. Its like smoking tobacco out of your "water pipe" I'm not anti-gun in the least, just some guns are just pointless and dangerous for civilians to have
IMHO, assault weapons and supressors are designed and manufactured specifically as weapons of war. There was never any thought about these weapons being used for sport. They were designed specifically for the purpose of killing men at war.

OTOH, revolvers, rifles and shotguns are designed for hunting for meat, self defense, and sport shooting.

No matter what the purpose, without proficiency, you might as well use a club.
