"Is it the shoulder thing that goes up?" Just ask these people what that stuff is. Why ban forward grips or pistol grips? Ask people if they know what a "bullet button" or a thumbhole stock is. 4 times out of 5 you can get the gun banners on one of these things. No intelligence, just repetition and arrogance is the name of the game. What is a threaded barrel? What is a barrel shroud? DUH UHUHUH MAGAZINE CLIPS KIDS DIED HERP DERP. Notice what they call the legislation here...CATCH ALL. This covers probably 80 percent or more of the firearms in the country. Good luck rounding up 170 million firearms, toots. Catch-all category (for anything missed or new designs): A semiautomatic rifle that accepts a detachable magazine and has: (i) a folding or telescoping stock, (ii) a threaded barrel, (iii) a pistol grip (which includes ANYTHING that can serve as a grip, see below), (iv) a forward grip; or a barrel shroud. Any semiautomatic rifle with a fixed magazine that can accept more than 10 rounds (except tubular magazine .22 rim fire rifles). A semiautomatic pistol that has the ability to accept a detachable magazine, and has: (i) a second pistol grip, (ii) a threaded barrel, (iii) a barrel shroud or (iv) can accept a detachable magazine outside of the pistol grip, and (v) a semiautomatic pistol with a fixed magazine that can accept more than 10 rounds. A semiautomatic shotgun with: (i) a folding or telescoping stock, (ii) a pistol grip (see definition below), (iii) the ability to accept a detachable magazine or a fixed magazine capacity of more than 5 rounds, and (iv) a shotgun with a revolving cylinder. Frames or receivers for the above are included, along with conversion kits
Our liberal friends here have a point. Obama is a staunch defender of Second Amendment rights. He wouldn't think of capitalizing on a tragedy to further enslave the American people.
Just remember the Fast & Furious debacle. Keep reminding them they armed drug cartels without any checks or balances.
Woo Hoo My SKS is safe But I guess I'll have to re-install the 5 or 10 round Fixed mag it came with Because I wanna be in Compliance Here in Brainerd
Write your representatives, people. Sitting on your ass and bitching on the internet isn't going to stop this shit from passing.
My reps are good and safe. It's those other reps who are the cocksuckers who will vote for this shit. And those reps don't care about my letters.
Cool. My SKS is safe. I have the non-detaching, top-loading, ten shot magazine. I should probably remove that ultra-deadly bayonet lug though.
Pretty sure SKS's don't have bayonet lugs. They usually have a bayonet that swings into the front fore end.
You 'legal' without the bayonet, in NYS. However, hold on to it. It increases the value of the rifle a bit, if you should sell it. (Which I'd never do. SKS's rock.)
