In fact as far as I'm aware the UK is the only european nation that outright bans guns for civilians.This is why people ban guns. Gun supporters don't know what guns are.Shotguns I'll give you (provided you're allowed 12 and larger gauges... because I mean... come on...) but not .22s.

Actually, this wasn't about textbook definitions at all. Wikipedia isn't going to tell you that an AR-15 is as effective as a similar full-auto weapon in a combat situation, that's my whole point.
If you haven't handled long guns personally, you're not going to know that full-auto on a weapon with a 30 round magazine is completely useless and semi-auto is the only relevant mode to use.
That's why it's so pathetic that people with no firearms experience are trying to regulate firearms.

No it isn't. What the hell? Are you seriously saying a hammer was invented to kill despite the club - the weapon - already existing and does the same job?
Next step; scaffolding was invented for killing because it looks a bit like a spear.
I am not. A gun has one, sole purpose, one way to judge it - its effective manner of destruction. Hammers are known for nails.No, you are over simplifying both. Hammers are used for a wide variety of things. Intent is also very important.

No, a tool is for manufacture. A weapon is for destruction. A tool can be misused to destroy, for sure, but it has a different purpose. A weapon is for killing.
Guns are for killing. Marksmanship contests are practice for using a weapon for killing. What else is it for?

Scaffolding looks nothing like spears lol. Scaffolding is a very loose term to begin with. Also, again, hammers are used for many many many things.
Hammer is also a very loose term. "War Hammer" is a hammer for killing. Some guns are designed around target shooting. Not all are made specifically for murdering people.
