“Certification” is just another term for “licensing”. With licensing comes “registration”. The first step in CONFISCATION. As for the “why” to own a SEMIautomatic rifle. Why not? If a LAW ABIDING citizen chooses to possess one they are perfectly within their right to do so. There is with the exception a few states coupled with a FEDERAL PERMIT no “full auto” firearms permitted. People that live in those states and choose to possess one do so just for the “enjoyment” of shooting it. I guess it could be compared to if the speed limit is 65 mph, why own a RUF Porche 935 that will do 215mph?
One of the things on my “bucket list” is to attend the Knob Creek Machine Gun Shoot held annually in October. It’s gotta be a REAL HOOT!
