thus a revolver, many rifles, or many shotguns and stuff like that are neither semi nor full auto

semiautomatic is like a pistol-- the gun does its work every shot so you don't have to rerooster it. automatic is firing bullets nonstop when holding the trigger.
nvm that's what you just said
Tactical Nuke:
revolvers have only six shots, are difficult to reload and are usually of ridiculously high caliber
shotguns have a problem with collateral damage, not to mention the blowback
The Young Avenger:
one of the teachers at my old middle school was a victim
forget
Tayasaurus:
Semi auto is a single shot with a single pull of the trigger, which can be followed up by more shots without having to manually eject and reload the cartridge.
Fully Automatic is holding the trigger down and the gun with fire until you let go.
Saying "I don't see a need for a civilian to have a semi-automatic weapon" is a huge loving blanket and its a dumb thing to say. You've already gotten your way with fully automatic weapons which most agree was a needed restriction, but i'll be damned if this isn't some slippery slope bullstuff.
Drydess:
yea id honestly be pretty pissed if semis somehow got banned. revolvers i could live with but pump shotguns are a forgetin pain to deal with
