Presidential frontrunner Donald Trump released his official stance on the Second Amendment Friday, reversing his previous position calling for an all-out ban on “assault weapons.”

“Gun and magazine bans are a total failure. That’s been proven every time it’s been tried,” Trump’s official statement reads. “Opponents of gun rights try to come up with scary sounding phrases like ‘assault weapons’, ‘military-style weapons’ and ‘high capacity magazines’ to confuse people.”

“What they’re really talking about are popular semi-automatic rifles and standard magazines that are owned by tens of millions of Americans. Law-abiding people should be allowed to own the firearm of their choice. The government has no business dictating what types of firearms good, honest people are allowed to own.”

ooking back at the business mogul’s 2000 book, “The America We Deserve,” Trump instead advocated for an outright ban on semi-automatic rifles, referring to them specifically as “assault weapons.”

“I generally oppose gun control, but I support the ban on assault weapons…” Trump said, according to ontheissues.org.
