You should watch it to the end, it is worth it.
And after can we have a nice walk through the park. Glock take it easy don't give these guys any more fodder they will just turn and twist it around on you, the best way to get under their skin is to tell the truth and show the truth, as sun light is to a vampire,, so is the truth to a liberal, so the world is coming to a end because the government has to cut spending by 2% wow,, I guess that's 2% less chance I get groped at the airport, keep up the good fight.

Default So, what's actually in the 2013 Assault Weapons Ban? Read on...

Assault Weapons definition, a list of 157 Rifles, and after defining what is actually considered illegal, everything is perfectly legal and dandy. IF you are an agent of the law.
Policemen (incl. campus police), military and former Policemen are all exempt.
Not former military though, because Fenstein stated in this video:
that Veterans might be incapable of rational thought.

It seems, after a stupid 100 pages of listing exempt weapons from the bill that it's sole purpose is to attempt to shut down any and all criticisms.

Example at hand would be the Iver Johnson commemorative shotgun:


or the Shilo Sharps 1874 Rifle:


How they can be classed as Assault Rifles is beyond me

Also making the cut are hand-made double barrel shotguns, which can be very expensive, a few thousand dollars at least.

Also the SKS, dirt cheap Russian weaponry, with a holding capacity of a massive 10 rounds :



But it seems, not all is lost because the Bill finishes on a very high and positive note, describing the brilliant use of tax-payer's dollars to buy high capacity magazines from the citizenry.

Good work Fenstein, good work.

Here is the Bill, in it's entirety:

http://www.feinstein.senate.gov/publ...f-69e69f517fb4

Happy reading.

This makes me sick. Like I actually get a bad feeling in my stomach when I think about it.

Guns aren't the problem. WHEN WILL YOU LEARN!?!?!?!?!

these politicians are morons... every single one of them. especially that feinstein horses ass.

i wont post my true feelings on her here

but i think that considering i own an SKS, AK47, AR15 and Sig M400 among about 60 other such long rifles and various pistols you can pretty much guess my position.

Fret not, gun owners, after clearing the Senate panel 10 to 8, it still has to be brought to the full Senate.
Unlikely it will pass.
A vote on the bill is expected sometime mid April.
Stiff resistance by Democrats and some Republicans.

Shouldn't that be the other way round?

I hope it doesn't pass...but with the re-election of Obama....anything could happen.

With him building Homeland Security into his little private army and everything.... I don't know what will happen.

So we have a civil war against the federal government lets say red states against blue states, and they the feds managed to coherse some pilots to fly against the american people,, breaking their oath,, remeber, states have the air national guard and the states have the right to protect their sovernity the question ought to be could blue states take red states and how many service men and women would break their oath and turn against the american people, if red states stop producing and giving services to northern blue states I believe they would starve or they would end up looking like north korea...As it stands now 340 sheriffs won't support the governments assult on the 2nd amendment.

Passing a Gun Shop lately is like passing a Halmark store when beanie babies were the big thing. Wonder when we'll get the V-8 ban? That should really stimulate the economy!

So where do I get a 3D printer? lol

Yeah, it's a Carbine.

Still an Iver Johnston commemorative though, and it still would be under the ban-hammer with Feinswine's bill.
It isn't under the ban hammer, its on the exempt list.

Clearly this means we need an extended edition with more words and possibilities. I'm up for suggestions.

That's what I was thinking. I didn't say anything because of my lack of firearms knowledge, and I did once think that the AR-15 was an assault rifle.
