Original Note:
The AWB has negligible effect on gun crime. From the Office of Justice Programs report "Should it be renewed, the ban’s effects on gun violence are likely to be small at best and perhaps too small for reliable measurement. AWs were rarely used in gun crimes even before the ban" https://www.ojp.gov/pdffiles1/nij/grants/204431.pdf
