    • Regulate possession of existing assault weapons under the National Firearms Act. Currently, the National Firearms Act requires individuals possessing machine-guns, silencers, and short-barreled rifles to undergo a background check and register those weapons with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF). Due to these requirements, such weapons are rarely used in crimes. As president, Biden will pursue legislation to regulate possession of existing assault weapons under the National Firearms Act.

    At least, LCMs should be regulated under the NFA.

    How many homicides were committed with "assault weapons" in your post?

    This still wouldn't be Constitutional.

    I'm the year or so it would take to get a tax stamp approved, who holds the weapons and LCMs?

    This will never happen, as Democrats do not want to open the NFA up to judicial review.

    This is you literally telling someone to not talk about it in this thread and to start another. Put the adjective you prefer on it, no need to be coy.
    You don't have to be ashamed of how you cope with things you don't like to hear but consistently expose yourself to. Surely.

    Hahahaha...you're reaching. The thread is about what Biden will do. The thread is not about various scenarios that maybe might happen in the future. You've been on this forum long enough to be familiar with forum rules. Or maybe you just don't understand them just as you don't understand many posts. Meh...not my problem.
    This thread isn't about your emotional fascination with me. You should probably stop derailing the thread. Since you're clearly someone who needs the last word, I will be the adult and allow you one more temper tantrum. Goodbye

    We've been discussing what Biden attempts. You were the one that wanted a poster discussing the topic to not discuss it in the thread.
    Now you're scrambling all over yourself to say otherwise and you want to part with a personal attack. Its hilarious.

    The national firearms act is already up for being cut. You pass this, it gets cut faster.

    What is an LCM? You mean a normal capacity magazine? No, they shouldn't, because the NFA is an unconstitutional restriction on the right to keep and bear arms.
    See Bruen. If you disagree, and it is your claim that it is constitutional, the burden will be on you (and the state) to prove there was a historical analog to the NFA in 1791 or thereabouts.
    Which is going to be difficult (read impossible) because in the committee minutes for the passage of the NFA they're all jerking each other off about how novel and fancy and new the very concept and idea of the NFA is.

    Enjoy

    Of course, knowledgeable liberal lawmakers can easily identify assault weapons by the style and types of features they sport. The one important missing feature is the missing ‘high capacity clip and, perhapsperhap a scilencer.hmmm is this a semi auto?

    perhap any Lawmaker that can’t pass a test on gun safety, and demonstrating they can clear a woepn should be prohibited from passing gun control measures.

    can't ban them, but like machine guns, can make them harder to get - republicans support the restrictions on machine guns

    Not all Republicans agree with the ‘restrictions’ of full auto weapons or other provisions of the 1934 NFA.
    The logic behind the restrictions doesn’t stand to rational Al argument; it was politician’s ‘feel good action intended to persuade the pubic something was being done to control a Medea hyped irrational fear… similar to that of the ‘50’s legislation related to switch blades and to combat the menace of youth gangs warned of in Hollywood depictions.

    why should full autos be restricted? Provide a your reasoning… go ahead and demonstrate your ignorance.

    same reason if lasers guns ever become portable enough, they will be restricted, when all one has to do is spin in a circle and mow people down, it gets restricted

    most on the right and the left agree

    All Republicans support both the NFA and Hughes Amendment restrictions on machine guns?

    Are semiautomatic rifles in common use for lawful purposes?

    Nope, not with semiautomatic rifles, nor for the school shootings we've had with semiautomatic pistols, bolt action rifles, lever action rifles, pump shotguns, double barrel shotguns or revolvers.

    The hundreds of millions of annual lawful uses do count.

    well by then we will have personal plasma shields as exhibited in the movie DUNE so lasers won't be big worry. But citizens ought to have easy access to the same weapons that civilian employees of the government might use against them

    I don't recall any republicans voting for the hughes amendment-perhaps a few but it was done late at night at a session that was merely enough to have a quorum

    Semiautomatic rifles are best for hunting. You can maintain your stock weld, maintain your sight picture and take a follow-on shot if you missed very quickly. With a bolt action, if you miss your first shot, you lose your sight picture, have to re-establish your stock weld, reacquire the target and essentially take more than enough time for your prey to skeedaddle.

    apologists for Democrat gun banners seem to think Trump was no better for gun owners than Biden even though every one of Trump's SC appointees voted properly on Bruen and every justice that Biden helped appoint is anti gun. And when we supported Trump we knew his gun rights position was perhaps unsettled but that was better voting for two hard core gun banners.

    Given it was a voice vote, how would we even know?

    It's my belief that the reason Trump pulled enough votes from the middle was his ability to add pro-2A justices to the Court.
