I would further wager that the British would have wanted to outlaw the Kentucky Long Rifle, a far superior rifle to the 'Brown Bess' that the British infantry carried at the time of the Civil War! Not only was the Kentucky Long Rifle far more accurate, but the range at which it was effective had no equal in that time period. Certainly if they had known this they would have attempted to ban the original 'assault rifle'.

Well, the British jumped all the way to gun confiscation. They skipped over registration, background checks, and the Kentucky Long Rifle ban. Apparently, then, as now, the gun owners didn't believe the government should be engaging in such activities which would trample upon their rights in order to subject them to tyranny and oppression by the government.

Enjoy.
