And in what appears to be a classic case of "this isn't a bad law because it does not affect ME", you seem to have forgotten the Sullivan Act (New York), The National Firearms Act of 1934 (FDR, from New York), and we mustn't forget the Firearm Owner's Protection Act of 1986, which did many nice things, but also outlawed the private ownership of new-made machine guns, and is the reason why a 500 dollar MP5 costs 20 thousand dollars now. Thank you Ronald Regan (California).
