House Bill for 1,000% Tax on Assault Weapons to Be Filibuster-Proof: Beyer

[DW357]

What about online vendors selling complete uppers and lowers or other accessories? Or would this just apply to complete ARs

 

[VetteGirlMA]

Out democrat the democrats. A 1,000,000% tax on abortion. Any state that tries to pick up the tab pays a $100 million fine. Scare the piss out of them. It’s about goddam time.

 

[VetteGirlMA]

preban my ass.
a pre-healy stripped lower 'with papers' - ten thousand dollah. (translation - a $70 andersen 2022 made lower).

I’d pay $20k for a planet of the apes rifle if @Reptile has one for sale

 

[Davidk]

We can solve all of the country’s problems by charging voters $1000 for every vote for a dumocrat

 

[StevieP]

<< -- stocks up on lowers.

 

[kalash]

Cue manufacturers selling $1 lowers and $1k uppers to go with them.

Good. I bet a bunch of people got helicopter tickets already printed up.

Depends on how StupidLaw 65536 (TM) is written. Could go either way, depends on how dumb they are.

I think if they ever succeeded in passing it though it would turn into a lovely shit show.

 

[pastera]

Would they enact the tax on every part or just the federal serialized?
I'm sure I could figure out a 0% lower made even on my tiny mill

 

[mousegunfan]

So no rifles for the poors…

“…1,000 percent tax increase could add $5,000 to $20,000 to their final sales price.”

No fed sales tax, so 1000x0=0. What tax would this be from.

 

[HARRYM]

This is kinda what they did in 1934 with the transfer tax on machine guns.

 

[Broc]

Those Noveske lowers are starting to look cheap.

Less than 24hrs and the free market solves the problem.

No doubt that’s the real calculus being performed right now on this.

They could absolutely pass it via reconciliation.

Whether or not they’re prepared for the consequences is the likely discussion right now.

Lol there's FET/FAET on every gun and round of ammo sold in the US. Pittman Robertson act or whatever. They would just add a line to it.

 

[namedpipes]

Sell lowers for $0.25 each and a parts kit of everything but the lower, as a package, for about the price of a complete AR now. Then offer assembly for a dollar.

Or, water the tree. Your choice.

The advent of gun control was racist in origin and probably still holds true.

Imagine tho if we had a supreme court that wasn't shit.... "All firearm and ammunition taxes are illegal and a strict violation of the 2nd amendment."

 

[chris_1001]

For sale 99% ar-15, normal price.

Just add your muzzle device of choice (or as dictated by your state) to hit a magical 100% compete MSR version.

 

[safetyfirst2125]

Interesting reveal though: taxation as a weapon is how the tyrants intend to enforce their will for things they really want banned.

Semi rifles today, but you know there’s a long list of things they want to ban that won’t be far behind.

The Black Market will absolutely Love this...

This is how Private Gun Sales should be conducted...

 

[Hoover]

Very smart bill. It’s a really great idea to tax ammo and guns at very high rates. The shooters will put everything on a charge card and since they usually off themselves, they’ll never pay a dime of it. If they live and get arrested, they won’t pay a dime.

What a great, well thought out proposal lol

Why the receipt?

Out here in the Midwest/Northern South, a handshake/fist bump or a wink will do and I’m pretty sure that’s the way it will continue to be…regardless of what those cock suckers in washington ‘pass’.

A stripped lower has no features and isn't going to be an assault rifle unless the dip-test is 'can/cannot' accept detachable mags.

yep... just like Chacho and Rufius don't care about the $400 worth of tax stamps they didn't buy when they blow lungs out with their Mac 11's going sideways

helps for capital gains taxes down the road if you sell to a dealer on-record for a profit. if you buy on a 4473 and some bent dick cuts the line at a bank they will come to you first. Having a receipt in that situation is better than nothing. I'm not advocating these things, just saying it's the world we live in...

My wife said the same thing when I told her about this bill
