Talk about putting a target on gun owners backs. I am having flashbacks to the original movie Red Dawn, where all the bad guys had to do is pull the list and round-em up. Now the bad guys appear to be the federal government.
I tell you this is bad, very bad, once they have you on the list...BAM!...
History is repeating itself before our very eyes, of course the public schools apparently don't teach much history anymore....
Summary of 2013 Feinstein Assault Weapons Legislation
*Bans the sale, transfer, importation, or manufacturing of:
> 120 specifically-named firearms
> Certain other semiautomatic rifles, handguns, shotguns that can accept a
detachable magazine and have one military characteristic
> Semiautomatic rifles and handguns with a fixed magazine that can accept
more than 10 rounds
*Strengthens the 1994 Assault Weapons Ban and various state bans by:
> Moving from a 2-characteristic test to a 1-characteristic test
> Eliminating the easy-to-remove bayonet mounts and flash suppressors from
the characteristics test
> Banning firearms with “thumbhole stocks” and “bullet buttons” to address
attempts to “work around” prior bans
*Bans large-capacity ammunition feeding devices capable of accepting more than
10 rounds.
*Protects legitimate hunters and the rights of existing gun owners by:
> Grandfathering weapons legally possessed on the date of enactment
> Exempting over 900 specifically-named weapons used for hunting or
sporting purposes and
> Exempting antique, manually-operated, and permanently disabled weapons
*Requires that grandfathered weapons be registered under the National Firearms
Act, to include:
> Background check of owner and any transferee;
> Type and serial number of the firearm;
> Positive identification, including photograph and fingerprint;
> Certification from local law enforcement of identity and that
possession would not violate State or local law; and
> Dedicated funding for ATF to implement registration
