Basing a large part of our argument on "common use" scares the snot out of me.
It essentially precludes advancing beyond the present.
Gauss rifles are not in common use today are they? Nor are lasers.
There's large classes of firearms that are presently heavily restricted and not in common use because of that heavy restriction. Basically anything NFA comes to mind.
I know only one other person personally who has anything NFA. Me and one guy among a large group of gun owning people. And it's short barreled guns not something really cool like a machine gun or suppressor.
I'd feel better about it if, perhaps, we got an amnesty. The law allows for periodic amnesties, and there has been exactly one. It ended before I was born, in fact. Getting the amnesty and enough "new" guns registered to change NFA items to common use would suit me. Then we can use that to nuke the whole concept of NFA item completely.
Just a thought.
