An AR-15 is not a colonial musket. Our laws should acknowledge that.

Were ' regulars ' so called because of their healthy bowel movements- or because they were professionals under a regulating command ?

I like you and especially your disdain for the other Wanker Tom.
On this topic however I stand fast.

That's right.
You had to pump it up.
Then you could expell 22 bullets in under a minute.

No- you had to pump it up to 1,500 times . You also had to have a cart-mounted pump. Its range was about a hundred yards, possibly non-lethal, and the only army known to have used it quickly dumped it.

Are you seriously sticking with your apparent claim that the framers had an advanced hand-pumped ball-bearing cart-mounted machine in mind for the Second Amendment when it was abandoned ten years earlier ? And if you are- how would you know ?

You generally admirably support the same issues as I do- and this discussion won't affect that- particularly as I know next to nothing about guns nor the Second Amendment. I'm frantically scanning Wiki to keep up.

Haw, haw.................................haw.

Yes, ' the wanker, Tom,' groans you too.

Haw, haw...............................haw.

Actually you are incorrect. The air flask was exchanged with a full one if needed.
More than one full flask could be carried AND the rifle in question was in the service of the US from 1780 onward until 1815

It was regulated then- and camouflaging the cart and flask-mound was difficult for snipers.
