I see a lot of people arguing that "we" should take a reasonable compromise...but I see no compromise here. The antis demand we ban more gun accessories. We don't get anything from that. It is not a compromise!
You don't?!

You don't see ditching a "grown-up's toy" to make shooting a few hundred people harder to achieve as worthwhile, particularly if it means the focus is not on the semi-autos?

On a more general note:
Recognising that a handful of accessories can potentially do way more harm than they do good in giving some owners a few grins at the range is not a compromise, it's socially responsible and ultimately has nothing to do with RKBA.

RKBA is about buying and owning guns, and doing so unhindered.
It's not about gimmicks that may or may not go on such guns.

Put another way, would America's RKBA and enjoyment of firearms have been ruined if slide-fire stocks had never been invented...? I doubt it...
