02 March 2013 I decided to take a look at the "Assault Weapons Ban" Bill and there are many firearms besides the scary semi-automatic rifles that will be banned. Below is some select text I found interesting in the bill.
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.
All semiautomatic rifles and handguns that have a fixed magazine with the capacity to accept more than 10 rounds.
All semiautomatic shotguns that have a folding, telescoping, or detachable stock; pistol grip; fixed magazine with the capacity to accept more than 5 rounds; ability to accept a detachable magazine; forward grip; grenade launcher or rocket launcher; or shotgun with a revolving cylinder.
Now, under the semi-automatic pistols section, every one of this class of pistols has a detachable magazine. Under this for example, every handgun that is based on an automatic pistol but is semi-automatic will be illegal and impossible to purchase.
Under the semi-automatic rifles and handguns section, I am clueless as to what is a "fixed magazine." Aren't all magazines detachable?
Under semi-automatic shotguns, you are telling me that you can't have one with a detachable stock even if it is a standard-type stock that is installed on it? And I can't say I ever heard of a shotgun with a grenade or rocket launcher on it. Sounds like one bad-ass weapon I'd like to own! And then she says it will be illegal to have a shotgun, semi-automatic, with a revolving cylinder? Guess what? I bet that would include the rifle Taurus makes with the revolving cylinder that takes .45 Long Colt & .410 shotgun shells. And the Taurus revolvers that accept the same, because you are firing shotgun shells and being it is one shot per pull of the trigger, technically it is semi-automatic under her definition.
My point: Watch out folks, the road is going to get a whole lot bumpier because she will get this either passed through Congress, and if that doesn't work for her, Obama will issue another unconstitutional Executive Order, and that is when the Revolution will begin.
