Booming Business at an Indiana Gun-Show
[...] There are more than 400 tables and guns of all sorts. There are guns from America's history like the Navy Colt, and a Tommy gun complete with its round magazine clip.
There are many beautifully made hunting rifles, with polished wooden stocks and the lever action of the classic Winchester, featured in so many Westerns.
But among them are also less graceful, more utilitarian weapons, in matt black. They have certain sort of sinister beauty. They are what opponents call assault rifles - weapons of war designed to kill a large number of people at once. There's much derision here for that term and that description.
