In reply to the discussion: Feinstein revives assault-weapons ban [View all]Pullo
(594 posts)42. Looks like she left the NFA stuff out of this version
The bill that she had on her website a few weeks ago included things like requiring all grandfathered existing "assault" weapons to be registered under the NFA, and banned the sale and transfer of existing AW's.(including passing them on through inheritance) Same for magazines capable of holding more than 10rds.
It went even further I believe and required registration of all firearms.
The new version is a tad less idiotic, but idiotic non the less.

I think they actually have the Berretta up on the wall at the Feinstein presser.

Some interesting points, though the exact wording will obviously be important...
