So, tricky wording allows Federal AWB bans ALL semi-automatic firearms

Now, I haven't personally checked the veracity of these claims, but, if true it would make NJ legislators proud.

Well what he says is how it's written in the bill

[222 3]

 

Below is the actual bill.

Assault Weapon Rifle (page 2) pistol grip, forward grip, telescoping stock, grenade launcher, barrel shroud, threaded barrel.

Assault Weapon Pistol (page 3) is threaded barrel, second pistol grip, barrel shroud, magazine seats outside of pistol grip, or semiautomatic version of automatic firearm.

 

So no, your Glock G19 is safe. But your Glock 17 might be in trouble, because it is a semiautomatic version of the selective-fire Glock G18.

 

Would they argue that a straight-stock rifle is a "pistol grip"? Muhahaha. Lots of hunters out there saying, "oh ban ARs! What do we care they FUGLY!" That'd be karma.

It is false. Makes me wonder what kind of "experts" we have working our side.

That "Semi-automatic version of an automatic firearm" clause is a little too vague...

 

Is an AR15 a "Semi-automatic version of an automatic" M16? They're playing the NJ game-- make it vague to expand the meaning of the original law.

These bills are going nowhere. Keep calling them and faxing them. They are getting the message.

99% of this legislation will die, 100% will NOT be signed by the gov...

"Semi-automatic version of an automatic firearm" clause is specific to pistols

They don't like pistols that go auto

or semi-auto pistols that look like auto pistols.

Not if he wants to try for president anyway. Not that I'd really like a status-quo gun rights president.

 

I was referring to the federal ban though.

Guys, that same wording already exists in NJ's AWB. The Glock 17 is not a semi-auto version of a full-auto firearm. The Glock 18 is a full-auto version of a semi-auto firearm.

 

An example of a semi-auto version of a full-auto firearm would be the new Auto Ordinance Tommy guns, since the original design was a sub gun. I know the statute would apply only to pistols, but I can't think of any full-auto pistols offhand

but I can't think of any full-auto pistols offhand

 

NYState had that ban list they published for a few hours...

 

I think Mac-11 was on it. Comes in full-auto and semi-auto.
