That is a misrepresentation of the purpose for the 2nd Amendment. The argument for the 2nd Amendment being used exclusively for single-shot weapons is dishonest. No more so than it is to say that the 1st Amendment is for hand-written letters, the spoken word, or old news papers. Should your speech online, telephone, etc. not also be protected? After all, they couldn’t have known about those.

There were weapons that fired multiple shots more quickly than single-shot pistols. Hell, a canon is more lethal than a rifle, and the Founding Fathers encouraged the personal use for those.

The Founding Fathers didn’t create this Amendment for only foreign enemies. It’s a bit disengenouis to leave that part out. I’m not at the point where I believe a civil war is likely or that the government will do something worthy of one soon, but I’m not willing to say we won’t be there one day. Domestic enemies are included.

Bump stocks shoot fast, sure, but they aren’t practical at all. They’re widely inaccurate, and humans can shoot nearly as fast without assistance. I don’t even understand the obsession with getting rid of personal use rifles when only a very small percentage of all gun related deaths include one. Handguns make up the vast majority of deaths.

Restricting ammo capacity is naive. Ignoring the domestic enemy portion of the 2nd Amendment, let’s assume you use it only in self defense. If you only have 6 rounds, then you’re screwed. It isn’t practical defend yourself with only 6 rounds, and you may not even be able to hit your target with that few. A gun fight isn’t an easy and stress free event. You don’t want a victim limited to 6 rounds.

I’ll ignore the insults but I don’t agree with your solution. I’ll agree that it may have lowered it minimally but I don’t think you’d see it drop like you think. Besides, you’d have so many people making extended magazines and naming them something else. Much like how convenience stores sell crack pipes, or how businesses sell bongs, or the numerous or things that are named one thing and intended for another.
