The first President Bush banned import of “assault weapons” by executive order in, as I recall, 1988.

I had a semi-auto RPK on order with magazines and drum. It was canceled because of President Bush’s EO.

You’re right except it wasn’t executive order——it was the Arms Import/Export Control Act (sp). Bush 41 started the big double cross with respect to firearms. I believed at the time that he had no freeekin idea what he was signing.
