2A Alert - Ban on 80% lowers

[VTski4x4]

Typical NJ bullshit

House Democrats put forward a ban on gun parts kits

 

[snax]

Time to stock up on trigger parts, spare barrels, etc.
Trump may be dumb enough to sign it

 

[StevieP]

Are crimes committed with guns created from 80% lowers a big problem in NJ (or anywhere)?

Like, has there ever been a criminal caught (committing an actual crime, not just possessing one) with an AR (or Glock or 1911 - what else are 80% lowers made for) made from one?

 

[FiremanBob]

There will be an avalanche of such bills starting in January. "Flooding the zone" is an excellent political tactic.

Trump has a couple months before the new members of the House get sworn in and he should mobilize his lame ducks to get some work done while he still can, even if it means some all-nighters!

Someone should send him a tweet. I'd do it but I don't have an account.

 

[Boris]

ahhh, another panic just in time for the holidays so people could justify spending tons of money on scrap.

 

[hv55maxx]

so aluminum then hey? sounds good

 

[Prepper]

On a positive note, it will require homemade guns have serial numbers. This could be fun... I call dibs on all serial numbers in the range EABOD001 through EABOD999. If those are taken, I'll consider FMITA and BOHICA serial number ranges.

synchronizing serials between makers would mean registry. Actually it would be pretty funny when every newly made gun in US will bear serial ATF-FOAD.

Actually maker's mark would make it unique from mfg to mfg, but still, in this context serial will be meaningless.

 

[FiremanBob]

I'll take the prefix BFYTW with numbers 001-999.

I hosey 00101010

That's binary for 2A (in hexadecimal).

(don't hate me. I hate myself enough for everyone...)

I remember the days of writing machine code in Hex. My how times have changed.

Remember, we lost machine guns to a revolver...

I used to be able to read hollerith cards. 2 of the 6 machines at my school (Monmouth College in Long Branch NJ in 1982) had bad ribbons so nobody used them. I learned how to read the punches so I could. Made programming a bit quicker, although batch runs weren't exactly fast. And reading COBOL and Fortran on cards was no picnic.

(B) after purchase by a consumer, can be completed by the consumer to the point at which such casting or blank functions as a firearm frame or receiver for a semiautomatic assault weapon or machinegun or the frame of a handgun.

You can make a handgun frame from a 2x4.

So... they outlawed blocks of aluminum? Cutting boards?

All is well until the hanging chad.

I did that weeks ago. I actually got decent enough deals to get all the parts.

We had a PDP-8 in trade school in the early 80’s with toggle switch programming

Democrats are infamous for this tactic

 

[Yazz]

Ban school so no one can learn to build anything.

The text of the bill: https://www.congress.gov/115/bills/hr7115/BILLS-115hr7115ih.pdf

SEC. 6. CONSTRUCTION.
Nothing in this Act shall be construed as limiting the ability of a State to enact more restrictive gun-related laws, or bans on firearm receiver castings, firearm receiver blanks, assault weapon parts kits, or machinegun parts kits.

This bill is literally AIDS for the 2A

 

[Chevy 2 65]

Parts kit, fucing parts kit. Seriously these asshats will pass or try to pass anything. Just to say HEY LOOK we are tough on guns ! It's unconstitutional when it's in their favor, everything else is fair game. traitors

 

[Varmint]

They might have a chance if they focused on one thing, say 80% lowers. But they’re too greedy. This sweeping, complicated, intentionally vague Bill is gonna go nowhere.

This, plus Senate is still R-controlled. It's just a bill, yes only a bill, and it's sitting dead on Capitol Hill.
