Maybe a good law regulating weapons that can be used in war, like army rifles, would be to allow the ownership and use of the weapons at sanctioned ranges and meets for competitions. (For example.) Use of weapons at a persons home and private property should also be allowed.
Restrictions could be used to keep the weapons from being carried in public, or into public places.
Such weapons should always be secured when transporting the weapons from place to place. Any sighting of an unsecured weapon could be considered a reason to call 911. This would help to ensure pubic safety.
The assault rifle ban that was allowed by the federal judge goes right back to the same argument. Assault rifles accounted for 250 deaths compared to 300,000 deaths by other means and weapons over a period of time. This means that the continual want to make assault rifles the villain is just political in nature. There is no real merit in calling for assault weapon bans.
