So I wonder if in the USA - does the access to very nice semis, cut down on the incentive for home made guns
Well, we do have access to full autos too, and at least for now it basically just requires sufficient money. So, there is really no need for folks who want a full-auto for non-criminal activities to simply save up and buy one.

Full autos are generally less efficient than a good semi-auto. They waste ammo and they are hard to keep on target. Some submachine guns perform a little better than automatic light rifles like the AR or AK, but then you are sacrificing distance.

We live in a gun-knowledgeable country. As a collective group, we have far more experience with semi and full auto weapons than do any other group of civilians. Most people, if given the choice between owning one full-auto only and a semi-auto only in the same style weapon would choose semi-auto.

I will admit, however, that full auto is down right fun! Not practical, but fun!!!
