Which is why I mentioned a ban on high capacity magazines as well as one on assault weapons.

I like weapons. I've been gun owner, a hunter and competitive shooter in the past but the sorts of weapons and magazines we're talking about here are designed to kill large numbers of people as quickly and efficiently as possible. There is no sane reason for allowing them in civilian hands and little reason to permit their use in law enforcement other than the fact that the bad guys have them too.
