It needs to includes machine guns and other NFA items. Mandating that the state provide legal representation to any accused individuals is a great addition, though.

That's what I keep saying about all laws like this passed. If they don't include everything, and I mean everything, then they're pretty much useless posturing.

I'm not sure if Texas has one of these yet, but some state needs to grow a pair and include full autos, suppressors, launchers/Masterkey system; basically everything you can put on a gun.

An early version of Montana's proposed law had that, too, but it was amended out before being passed into law.

The statutes will be tested in federal courts, which will apply SCOTUS precedent and find the state laws to be unconstitutional. These ruling will be upheld on appeal, and SCOTUS will deny hearing the cases.

The federal government and federal courts are corrupt on 2nd amendment legislation and jurisprudence - they have ZERO moral authority, as the decisions are intellectually defective, in obvious ways.

Seems everyone is afraid to touch that one. I don't believe the NFA has protected any property or saved a single life, but some eight decades on, legislative types and the media remain keeping the hype going on evil machine guns.

NFA arms are precisely the types the second amendment was intended to protect the right to keep and bear. It was never about hunting or sport, ever.
