the frontal cortex (the part in your brain that is most responsible for your complex, e.g. moral, decisions) doesn't finish maturing until the age of 24 in males. i'm not saying buying an assault rifle should be illegal (though i'm leaning more towards it), i'm just saying that shouldn't the age in which you can buy a fully automatic gun at least be a bit higher?

it's neither an assault rifle nor automatic.
EDIT: although that's just semantics. pistol homicides heavily outweigh rifle homicides so changing that wouldn't be of much use.

well logically, it's easier to hide a pistol, and pistols are usually only used to kill one person whereas assault rifles are used in mass shootings which are much less common.
didn't know about the gun, but it's still a higher caliber and power than a regular pistol. i guess in the end it's a hobby and it's not like he's gonna actually shoot people but people really need to understand that our brains are not at their full potential of decision making until six or more years after we're legally considered adults.

proper education with firearms (and being mentally sound) usually helps people not do stupid stuff with guns
