I can’t think of a time. I think that’s a good thing.
Someone was talking about 2nd Amendment rights and I pointed out the difficulty of owning a machine gun. Personally, I would be fine with having the same regulations for all rapid fire weapons as machine guns.

Of course it'll cost a pretty penny, but it perfectly legal...

But could you tell me who was talking about fully automatic weapons?

I know I wasn't...

I’ll tell you what, I’d be just fine with having the same restrictions that are on machine guns put on all rapid fire weapons.
So see... I can compromise!!

As long as the restrictions were enforced, sure. Unfortunately many of the laws and restrictions aren't enforceable. What they need to do is remove the rules that -can't- be enforced, and create ones that can.

And enforce consequences for violations, which are absolutely not enforced equally among all violators.

Please explain what exactly is a "rapid fire weapon"?

The rate of fire is determined by how fast you can pull the trigger...

One trigger pull = One BANG!

What laws and restrictions "aren't enforceable"?

Why don't you already know the answer to this?

Because there is a difference between laws the "aren't enforceable" and laws that simply "aren't enforced"...

You made the claim that there are laws that "can't" be enforced. I asked you to please cite those laws...

The way our country is heading we better be prepared. Within a few years the media and our current leaders will remove those big, bad police and our guns. Then the criminals will be in charge.

Apparently so.

And some people actually believe the narrative that AR, as in AR-15, stands for Assault Rifle.

Which of course, is a pure fabrication and an attempt to brainwash the populous.
