FYI - First Look... tells me what I had already postulated: its going to cause a stampede of firearms off the shelves in huge numbers where still to be had - probably why this HR-1022 took a week to surface. See Section 4. Part 'D' in the descriptions catches everything with pistol grip + detachable magazines. It also seems to create a gun tracking function in the last section.
This is it - it gets the all AR clones, Aramalite 10s', Kel-Tecs, Bushmasters and the old usual suspects and this time with NO sunset. They wont make that mistake twice...
And if that Senator from New York wins... but first, can we ask she submits to a chromosome test.
There going to be a war in & with the media, and with NRA/GOA in there somewhere I hope. Since the old AW Ban can now be proven to have had no effect on gun crime perhaps theres a small bit of hope . but dont count on it stopping the media from rallying the masses of sheep. If, after this become Law and they check the support levels - they will go for high-cap pistols. Find it interesting they did not specify FN PS-90s, FN-57s or FS-2000's but they do get caught in Definitions (D).

That is one chilling book as well as the other books of Solzhenitsyn.

Hopefully It won't make it through the Senate this time! Filibuster SOMEONE Please..!
It would indeed be devine payback if those Americans most devoted to guns were to lose them because of their petulance in the last election.
You know, I understand that I'm a lone voice crying in the wilderness. I also understand very well, that all of this absolutely MUST happen. It's a part of Biblical prophesy. Eventually the NWO will be a fact. The merger between USA, Canada and Mexico will be accomplished. We'll lose our guns and our freedoms. It's a given, because the only thing standing between all of this and the rise of the AntiChrist is a large, free & armed populace here in the United States. I just want to draw it all out so that it no longer affects me. Say another 25 years. I'll be 50 in a few months. I refuse to dwell on this and choose to count the prophesies that are on the cusp of being fulfilled.
Here are two on tap for the near future: Isiah 17. Eziekiel 38 & 39. These could literally be just around the corner. After that it's a countdown to the return of Christ. Probably a short one.
You need to get out more.
They should go ahead and include a mandatory confiscation provision of all the mentioned weapons. If we can't buy them anymore might as well try to take the ones we have. That'd get real interesting.
"To be fair to W., he made it clear before both elections that he'd sign an "assault weapons" ban."
The very atmosphere of firearms anywhere and everywhere restrains evil interference - they deserve a place of honor with all that's good.

To be prepared for war is one of the most effective means of preserving peace.

Hey, I was around, wondering why W. would take such a lunkheaded position in the first place.
Awe man, not this SH** again!
Quemadmoeum gladius neminem occidit, occidentis telum est." (A sword is never a killer, it's a tool in the killer's hands.) - Lucius Annaeus Seneca "the Younger" (ca. 4 BC-65 AD)
Laws that forbid the carrying of arms...disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes. Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed one. - Thomas Jefferson quoting Cesare Beccaria, Criminologist 1764
I bought my first so-called assault weapon, a MAK-90 in November of 1992, right after I first heard the phrase "president-elect Clinton".

Slick Willie sold more guns than Sam Colt ever dreamed of.
And don't forget to get lotsa ammo for them too.
