Magazine Ban of 2013
« on: January 02, 2013, 09:03:59 PM »
In the next few days a bill seperate of Feinstien's AWB bill will be brought up in the House of Representatives to limit magazine capacities to 10 rounds or less.It follows the same template of Feinstien's bill where grandfathering will be allowed but future transfer will be illegal. Right now this bill is kinda of flying under the radar while the AWB is getting all the press. What we all need to understand is that this magazine ban is a stand alone bill. The gun grabbers are trying to sneak this by on use by dividing our attention. They are banking on the fact that we will let our guard down in the House because it is a Republican majority. Although the House is a Republican majority, it is not a lock. What we can do write the Speaker of the House, John Boehner, and pressuring him not hear the bill out on the House floor in essence squashing the ban attempt. Below is a link where you can write the Speaker of the House. Please take the time to make your point.

Thanks...Always worth the effort to write to our congressman to voice our concern, in this case the speaker. When they get large numbers of the same concern, they do listen. Problem may be with this standalone mag restriction bill is it may be hard to quash something that the majority of the population agrees on. The easy argument by the opposition could be why does anyone need more than 10rds in one mag at any given time, even the AR/AK guys. That is a hard point to defeat unless it does get quashed and doesn't reach the floor for debate and scrutiny, so writing now is important.

My thinking for a while now has been that Leatherface is running interference for Pelosi's magazine ban.  Leatherface's AWB won't pass Congress, and wouldn't pass Constitutional muster if it did, but Pelosi's bill is downright insidious because it legitimately could pass.

Here is a link to an article. Interesting that they believe that limiting the amount of ammunition in one mag will stop the carnage. Have they heard of reloading?

You may be right...maybe the republicans would agree to a mag ban and maybe something that addresses mental health, closing loopholes with gun shows, stricter background checks, etc, if they drop the gun ban notion. Afterall, Boehner seems to be doing nothing but compromising and making deals these days. Only time will tell.

DeGette told The Huffington Post two weeks ago. "What I am interested in is making it as difficult as possible for that deranged person to shoot as many people as possible."

then stop fucking around with guns and actually fix the problem.

DeGette intro'd one already. Sorry haven't read that article, Huffington is normally left and anti-gun. I'd be interested in laws at the state level. Anyone remember that ludicrous "spinner" wheels law that was trying to make its way?

Here's why compromise is bullshit for gun owners.  It's never a compromise.  We start from where we are now, and they propose some draconian crap, and if "compromise", we move toward disarmament.  I'd be all for "compromise", if it started with the Democrats saying, "We want to ban assault weapons" and the Republicans saying, "We want to repeal the Gun Free School Zones Act".  But that's never the case, is it?  We compromised and gave up our silencers, full-autos, etc back in 1934.  Then we compromised some more in 1968.  In 1994 we compromised again with an Assault Weapons Ban, which was mercifully repealed.  Let's start our "compromise" from the position of "SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED!"  /rant

most gunbroker people wont ship anything over 10 rounds to hawaii because of our 10 round pistol mag laws.  whether or not the mags fit in a pistol or not (like im mostly sure many .22 AR style mags do not, as some are proprietary, or, .308 20 round magazines, which, to my limited knowledge no pistol out there accepts), many wont ship here because its easier to err on the side of caution than to risk tripping any firearms laws which are serious business. 

i dont know if they're illegal or not, but either way, most gun broker sellers wont risk shipping those to hawaii.

I see, im going to message them telling them about the specifics of our pistol magazine law. Hopefully they change their mind.

supposedly, the mag bill isnt even going to go to a vote.

but you can watch the whole thing, to hear the asshole talk about how the AWB "isnt about banning the average gun" (uh, the ar 15 and general semi auto pistols are pretty damn common.  they are more your average gun than a hunting bolt action)

and how the columbine shooters used assault weapons like a pump action shotgun...

Did you guys here this analyst. I'm paraphrasing here. Lets not call it gun control cause that sounds like the government taking away liberties. Lets call it reducing violent crime. Ohh and yeah lets throw in mental health. Lets call it this so we can fool all those dumb ass gun owners to support us taking their guns away.

Let's not be fooled here. These gun grabbers aren't going to stop. We gotta keep pushing the issue. Continue writing letters to every politician. Join as a life member of the NRA. Talk to non gun owners. Shoot encourage them to buy a gun. Any gun. You heard the numbers. There are more gun grabbers than gun owners and even more followers who go with the bandwagon. Now is the time to get those followers on our bandwagon.

I called the NRA-ILA at about 12;00 their time. The frankenstein bill hasnt even made it to committee in the senate and the gun or mag bill was in committee but did NOT have a number yet. When it has a number the NRA will read it and OPPOSE it. The house DOES NOT have enough votes to pass. Maybe not enough to bring it to the floor or out of committee. The Illinois bill doesnt have support either in so poke your eye gun banners. Like xer21 says. Stop frenching around with guns and fix da problem.
