In reading this article I am distressed in the use of the term Semi-automatic Pistol. The writer should have called it a pistol or a hand gun and not demonized the attack any more then it was!! All Pistols are semi-automatic’s!!
A “Machine Pistol” has the ability to discharge a multiple number of shots with only one pull of the trigger. The public never hears of this because their use is extremely rare! These guns costing in the thousands of dollars. As a fact the police carry semi-automatic weapons as their standard side arm. As does our sons and daughters in the military. As do most civilian Canceled Carry Weapons permit holders in San Diego. And the largest number of handguns in the home are semi-automatic pistols !!
OK, What is an “Semi-Automatic Pistol”, It is a single shot handgun capable of carrying only ONE shot per pull of the trigger !! And internally carrying up to a state maximum number of 10 addition cartridges. With the ability of reloading the pistol chamber with a fresh cartridge after each shot, the trigger MUST be reset each time in order to fire the gun an additional time. Thus the ” Semi Automatic Reloading Firearm” or as the writer put it an assault with a Semi-Automatic firearm. Whether it be a Pistol or a Revolver the charge is still assault!
But as most of us know the news media likes to expand on an already bad situation!!!
If you are going to talk firearms GET TRAINED !!!
