Fortunately, things are not made illegal on the basis of "yesman65 doesn't see a need for them".
The
Clinton Gun Ban attempted to create a class of "very evil guns" that were somehow distinguishable from "still evil guns that it's OK to have", it was a dismal failure and allowed to lapse.
If you wish to keep your hunting rifles, you should at least read
