I just read the bill in its entirety.... Wow. This is truly nuts. What is our country coming to???

 

[Peacemaker]

Nuts!

I wonder if all the guns in America were stacked end to end how many times would they circle the earth? The libtards would love that answer. Better way of telling the libs would be, they would stretch all the way to Uranus.

I doubt this will last long, if they couldn't get this passed in 2013 they definitely can't get it passed now.

I doubted there were enough people stupid enough to elect Obama to a second term...

I really wish I hadn't sold that Marlin camp 9...

 

[Daddy-O]

I couldn't help but notice this bill lists one of the naughty features that makes a semi-auto rifle an "assault rifle" is an attached rocket launcher.

Beyond that, agreed, this thing is one nasty proposed bill. It looks like the same or similar language in the expired AWB94.

+1

There is a significant amount of civilian opposition to this bill, it's passing or something along its lines are possible.
California gun control is an example, as well as the ******** that was passed by Clinton.
Gun control isnt an Obama, or democratic issue. It has become the foolish but firm, mindset of many Americans.

So Ruger mini 14s are exempt.....semi auto,detachable mags,shoots the 223/556 round......guess it didn't look scary enough

 

[Expert684]

Crazy, under semi auto exempt weapons the have a Ruger Mini 14 and Mini 30. Really leaves me scratching my head??

 

[automan71]

I wonder if you got the model with the threaded muzzle with flash hider, would that make it illegal??...because it does have a detachable mag..??

 

[automan71]

Also....I kinda find it strange that the 10/22 wdnt fall into the illegal category....Hi cap, detachable mags, and threaded muzzles w/ flash hider...??

I mean, I'm glad that it doesn't, but it fits all of their crazy "criteria"

 

[Saintsfan6]

Regardless, ain't going to pass.

 

[Rainsdrops]

Regardless, ain't going to pass.

I'm hoping, that, not passing is the strategy. Its possible they composed a crazy stupid list, knowing it won't pass, next a smaller list is presents as an executive order.

Can't see the president being able to ban any firearms single handedly. It wouldn't stand without getting passed through the proper channels. Believe me, if Obama could have banned any firearms with executive orders he would have already done it multiple times.

At least they are not hiding their intentions on this one unlike with "universal background checks". Make note of this bill and the people that sponsored it for the future, when they deny this is what they want. They, like we should be, are thinking long term. It will not pass today but it might be ripe for passing tomorrow. Eternal vigilance.

BTW: My old home state of Maryland, prior to banning "assault weapons", considered a specific notch on the barrel of an AR-15 a grenade launcher. This stupidity can happen.
