https://xtremegunsandammo.com/wp-con...in-gun-ban.pngIt is only a matter of time…
Key provisions of the Feinstein Gun Ban:
The bill bans the sale, manufacture, transfer and importation of 205 military-style assault weapons by name, but it does say existing owners may keep existing weapons.
Any assault weapon that accepts a detachable ammunition magazine, has one or more military characteristics (including a pistol grip, a forward grip, a barrel shroud, a threaded barrel or a folding or telescoping stock) will be banned. Owners may keep existing weapons.
Magazines and “ammunition feeding devices” that hold more than 10 rounds of ammunition, which allow shooters to quickly fire many rounds without needing to reload will be banned.
Owners with existing magazines may keep them.
What Guns Aren’t Included In The 2019 Gun Ban?
The bill exempts by name more than 2,200 guns for hunting, household defense or recreational purposes. All currently owned guns are grand fathered… just no new ones.
How Will The Gun Ban Affect Sales, Trades and Gifts of Guns?
All future sales, trades or gifting of guns will require a background check in order to be legal. In effect…this is a national gun registry.
All grandfathered assault weapons must be stored using a secure gun storage or safety device like a trigger lock.
It will be illegal to transfer high-capacity ammunition magazines.
Bump stocks and any other devices that allow semi-automatics to fire like automatics will also be illegal.
Provisions That Were Kept From The 2017 Gun Ban
Folding stocks that are “otherwise foldable or adjustable in a manner that operates to reduce the length, size, or any other dimension, or otherwise enhances the conceal-ability of a firearm.” will also be banned.
Pistols must now weigh under 50 ounces when unloaded, a policy included in the original 1994 ban. This effectively makes all AR style pistols illegal.
Bans assault pistol stabilizing braces that transform assault pistols into assault rifles by allowing the shooter to shoulder the weapon and fire more accurately.
Bans Thordsen-type grips and stocks that are designed to evade a ban on assault weapons.
