46. The only way...
the government is going to be able to keep at least one full-auto, the M16, out of common circulation is for them to come out and say they prefer the AR15 for the unorganized militia. They could easily make a case for that. Of course then they just pretty much shot down any hope of banning AR15's. The NFA will survive but the Hughes Amendment is going to get canned unless they make some drastic policy changes at the national level.

If the government issues troops the M16 as their basic personal weapon, then that's what the population should be carrying as well.
