I don't know. What part mentions any part of any weapon?

So, what part of "infringe" don't you understand? It means to violate or encroach upon. Any limitation violates the meaning of "infringe".

Up here in the frozen north, we manage to hunt just fine with 5 round mags, its called "reloading"...
Good for you. I do all my shooting with a bolt-action rifle or a single-action revolver. Do you really need an M-1 Garand, even if it's a classic? Do you really need a dual-action revolver, or a semi-automatic pistol? Do you really need anything more than a single-shot muzzle-loader? Do you really need a gun at all?

You try to make a case for needing one gun or another, but you put yourself right into the trap of trying to limit what the word "infringe" means. You want to have it both ways. A basic natural right has nothing to do with what you, I, or Diane Feinstein think we need.
