Washington is Trying To Take Another Step Towards Total Gun Ban

[ltorlo64]

According to this new initiative being proposed all semi-automatic rifles are "assault weapons". Shows how undefined the term "assault weapon" is.

Stretching the already prevalent misuse of the term “assault rifle” to new extremes, I-1639 defines “semiautomatic assault rifle” as, “any rifle which utilizes a portion of the energy of a firing cartridge to extract the fired cartridge case and chamber the next round, and which requires a separate pull of the trigger to fire each cartridge.” This means that any semiautomatic rifle whatsoever, from an AR-15 to your grandfather’s tube-fed .22LR squirrel gun would be considered an “assault rifle” and subject to severe restriction.

California liberalism/Communism has taken a firm hold in Washington. I hope sane people start putting these Communists in their rightful places.....prison.

It looks like none of them will stop until bullets start flying in their direction. They are surely doing their best to make this happen.

This would completely break my heart if this ever happened. I have been dreaming of retiring to my home state after my career in the Army is over and these fucking asshats are going to fuck it up for me.

Actually the more I think about it, 1775 seem closer to the current situation.

Come to Georgia, we are NFA friendly. Several suppressor makers here, AAC being but one of them. SBR's, suppressors, full autos all legal here. If you want ocean there's always Savanna.
