Just pass it. Do it.
If you read this text and it’s exceptions in the full context of history, it reads very much like a government terrified of the armed population, banning any weapon that might be effective against tyranny, and the first and prominent exception to the ban is for the government itself to use said weapons against it’s citizens.
130 million people were slaughtered by their own governments in the 20th century alone. After they were disarmed.
If you are looking for something functional and reliable, and don't need to 'flex on the poors', get or build an Aero M5. They sell complete uppers and lowers too. If it matters to you, IIRC direct sale to Mass is an issue but they have distributors who will ship to Mass. If I didn't care about budget, I'd just get a rifle from JP.Time to pick up an AR-10.
Recommendations?
It looks black and killy, which seems to be their criteria.I tried to read through the list but, my eyes kept watering up from laughing. Made it past Armalite 22lr carbine but at High Point carbines I had to stop.
Yea, they even put the mini 14, 30 tactical on the ban list. Probably because Ruger called it tactical in the name!It looks black and killy, which seems to be their criteria.
Seems that Linsky was their chief advisor and expert resource?
Lots of people know better now. You can be assured there will be return fire this time........LOTS OF IT.View attachment 644137
Can't wait for President Kamala in a few years to send in Generalissimo Beto to sweep thru our streets block by block with the door to door confiscations lol. Katrina 2005 confiscations was a successful test run. If I remember correctly, no one shot back at the agents there ordered to confiscate their stuff.
It's a ban on possession, with a grandfather clause for pre-bans:Then what does possess mean?The bill the House passed Friday makes it illegal for anyone to import, sell, manufacture, transfer or possess a semiautomatic assault weapon. This doesn't apply to any possession or sale of semiautomatic weapons prior to the bill's passage.
HR1808 said:(v)(1) It shall be unlawful for a person to import, sell, manufacture, transfer, or possess, in or affecting inter18 state or foreign commerce, a semiautomatic assault weapon.
(2) Paragraph (1) shall not apply to the possession, sale, or transfer of any semiautomatic assault weapon oth21 erwise lawfully possessed under Federal law on the date of enactment...
(w)(1) It shall be unlawful for a person to import, sell, manufacture, transfer, or possess, in or affecting inter5 state or foreign commerce, a large capacity ammunition feeding device.
‘‘(2) Paragraph (1) shall not apply to the possession of any large capacity ammunition feeding device otherwise lawfully possessed on or before the date of enactment...
Ewww!Maura is dripping wet over this.
That was mighty white of them, eh?It's a ban on possession, with a grandfather clause for pre-bans:
The boilerplate "in or affecting interstate or foreign commerce" and the grandfather clause to try to preempt some of the obvious challenges to the constitutionality of the bill.
Notably, this version bans the transfer of grandfathered standard capacity magazines
Notably, this version bans the transfer of grandfathered standard capacity magazines
This still has to go to the senate. I’m not hopeful but we’ll see.
So, what do people who have guns that *never* cam with neutered magazines do? That seems like confiscation to me. No magazine, the gun is useless. e.g.: nobody is ever going to make a 15 round magazine for a VP70.
Grandfather clauses are put in so no one reacts against the bill. Everyone will say I have mine so it's OK.It's a ban on possession, with a grandfather clause for pre-bans:
