National ‘assault weapon’ ban coming Thursday (Today)

[Werewolf]

So, if this passes will unregistered guns be 'undocumented' or 'illegal'?

Either way we win...

After all they'll become eligible for ammo stamps and free emergency gunsmithing to keep them in healthy shape.

Republicans should push to bring it to the floor for a vote as is. Bet it would only get a few more votes than an Obama budget.

"All semiautomatic pistols that can accept a detachable magazine and have at least one military feature: threaded barrel; second pistol grip; barrel shroud; capacity to accept a detachable magazine at some location outside of the pistol grip; or semiautomatic version of an automatic firearm."


bye bye glocks, berretta 92s, cz-75s, 1911s and some i probably cant think of right now.

Much like the "high capacity magazine" fiasco that DC news anchor went through.....Feinstein is getting some heat for bringing banned weapons into DC city limits by conservatives. She claims she went through proper channels, but initial police reports are they they merely transported them to the site(which means she was in possession of illegal arms during her presentation).

I don't see how the above will affect the pistol's you listed. Except, maybe a threaded barrel. But most stock pistols don't have a threaded barrel anyway. Also, it's funny how they mention second pistol grip (which I'm assuming they're referring to a vertical fore grip). It is already "illegal" to attach a VFG to a pistol.

There are automatic versions of those that I listed. Read the last sentence.
