    Amerikas a funny place, I remember once one of my friends over there showed me a photo of his collection of AK-47s/clones (not to mention his arsenal of handguns). Upon seeing my picture of my hunting rifle with scope and suppressor we exclaimed "why do you have a sniper rifle!". They are obsessed with long rifle laws, when long rifles historically contributed to less than 1% of firearms homicides over there (rest is all handguns, I vaguely remember a stat of the chance of your shooter being a long rifle users was 200:1, so might be as low as 0.5%).
