the injury incident , a shot to the groin, was due to a glock style handgun. to me they are the same as assault style rifles. the 2 nd incident, a homicide aas bludgeoning by what appeared to be an assault rifle. cant xomment on much more as these acases are vefore the King's Bench.
They may the same to you, but there is a massive difference in handguns and rifles. A ban on assault style rifles wouldn't even impact handguns, they are a completely different type of gun and have very strict regulations. Handguns already have strict rules and it is incredibly rare a legal one is used in a gun crime.
The illegal guns are the problem. No amount of regulation on legal gun owners will stop illegal gun activity.
