Is Bush signing away your constitutional rights?

Semi automatic means that it is effectively an automatic weapon, except that you have to pull the trigger for each shot. However, the expelling of the previous shell, the loading of the next shell, and the "cocking" of the hammer, as it were, occur automatically.

I have fired a 9mm pistol that is a semi auto. Depending on the loader, you get 10-14 rounds, and you can pull them as fast as you can hit the spacebar on your keyboard repeatedly - basically, 2 per second, I suspect. You can put probably 3 shots into someone before they have really reacted to the first one.

Good for hunting, yessir.
