    C-mon guys... The whole E-cat firearms are more "deadlier" then A-cat is pointless. If you subscribe to this view then you are no better then the goofballs that thought up the legislation that a 'free standing' pistol grip makes a semi more... More what? Deadlier!? No way.

    That whole outcome was an absolute monstrosity to law abiding FAL owners.

    How can an Ecat AR be more deadlier then an Acat? They both fire .223/5.56 except one can legally own standard capacity mags, the other can't. Mag change takes 2 seconds who cares. It's a pointless argument.

    I think what the police where trying to do its make all ar15 ak types e cat

    weather you agree or not doesn't matter imagine someone having a few ar15's in a locked wooden cupboard or with a bike chain to the hot water cylinder how easy it would be for them to be stolen.
    As a firearm owner I don't want that type of problem to be there in the 1st place.

    I would rather see E-cat security being the minimum standard across the board,
    Way better then what they trying to achieve having every semi auto firearm regarded as E-cat.

    Sometimes people have to step back and see the bigger picture
