The reply to my e mail:

Thank you for contacting NRA-ILA. As for your questions concerning the
so-called "assault weapons" and high capacity magazines, please know
that this law sunsets September 13, 2004 when it will be up for a
revote. The original ban was part of the 1994 Crime Bill. NRA is
opposed to this ban and we have consistently supported legislation
calling for its repeal. Rest assured that NRA will remain involved in
this issue as the sunset date for this ban approaches, and will be sure
to inform you of any developments on this front.

Thanks for the update. I have no doubt that the NRA will "remain involved in this issue," but just how involved remains to be seen. We need to constantly impress upon them how important this is to us.

Thanks for sharing that message. Lately, when it comes to the NRA, as Truman said, "... you'll have to say I'm from Missouri - you have to show me."

Also see post 77 above. The key is fighting to keep any bill from reaching the President's desk.
