I have struggled with this question of semi automatic guns for years. Probably since the first ban was signed into law in 1994. As someone who has hunted and been around guns for years, I do have an opinion on gun laws. I also have hunted with a semi auto 22lr for small game. (looks nothing like bushmaster, and certainly more practical for hunting)
First let me say there is absolutely no reason to have a clip holding more than 10 rounds period. Not for target practice, not for hunting, not for self defense , no not for any reason. There is no accuracy when shooting rapid fire with a semi auto. So if your hunting usually one shot is all you will get. Perhaps if your lucky the animal will stick around. So you get off 2 more rounds. After that your target is gone. If your target shooting you want to take your time there as well, so why on earth have a large capacity clip?. It has to be some macho thing that comes into play here. Or perhaps some delusional thinking, and you believe you are partaking in a video game. Even if you believe you will use your Bushmaster for self defense . How many rounds do you need to take out one or two intruders? If you shoot more than 10 you are probably killing your neighbors, and other innocents 2 blocks over.
I think that we can all agree sensible limits are in order here. And I for one could agree to eliminating 30 round clips ASAP
Unless we are going to war and want mass casualties
