Administration Preps New Gun Regulations...

#1

Post by ELB »

The Justice Department plans to move forward this year with more than a dozen new gun-related regulations, according to list of rules the agency has proposed to enact before the end of the Obama administration.

The regulations range from new restrictions on high-powered pistols to gun storage requirements. Chief among them is a renewed effort to keep guns out of the hands of people who are mentally unstable or have been convicted of domestic abuse.

Gun safety advocates have been calling for such reforms...
Bloomberg's astro turf group gets a quote, of course.

I''m willing to bet "high powered pistol" includes AR-15 and AK pistols and any other rifle-caliber pistol. Would not surprise me to find out it also includes any pistol with "excessive" magazine capacity...

I'll bet the FN 5.7 makes the list.

And heaven forfend that they get ahold of IPSC's "Power Factor" chart.

I am not a lawyer, nor have I played one on TV, nor did I stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night, nor should anything I say be taken as legal advice. If it is important that any information be accurate, do not use me as the only source.

I looked around but didn't see that. Wrong search term I guess.
