Where do you draw the line as to what kind of gun citizens are allowed to own? DC government, even after Heller, defines a semiautomatic (like the colt 1911 or military issued beretta) as an automatic weapon? So when they can misname the weapon and restrict its ownership, you see no problem with that?

Let's keep guns out of the hands of criminals and let law abiding citizens arm themselves in accordance with the second amendment.
