Assault rifles should be in every home

Only deer hunters need, and most have, sniper rifles

An average deer hunter's rifle "was" the favorite sniper rifle , and was
issued to snipers from 1960 to 1987. It was just a standard Winchester
bolt action with scope, in 308 caliber, it was/is quite capable of
killing humans out to 800 yds.

From 1911 to 1959, the issued sniper rifle was the 1911 A3 bolt action,
in 30/06, then the government got smart, because hunting rifles were
better for the job
