I see not much has changed while I've been away.

You guys still post links that you think support your argument yet obviously haven't bothered to read.

The reason Heller was turned away was because he didn't bother to bring in his handgun to the police department, so it could be inspected and tested as per the registration process.


As for the difference between semi-automatic and revolvers, gun owners are going to find it very difficult since nothing indicates a right to a particular *type* of gun. Nonetheless, that's not why Heller was "denied" his application. Personally, I would prefer a revolver in the commission of a crime since it offers less chances at stray casings after a shooting, but there has been long standing restrictions on semi's based on all kinds of things...including how many bullets can be held. To my knowledge, there has been no successful challenge to restrictions against the extended clips gun owners used to have access to. At least in California we haven't had legal access to extended clips for many years now, we've always had to keep our guns unloaded and locked during travel, and maintain trigger locks during storage.
