(39,343 posts)I especially liked the limits on magazines. After a few years into the ban it was more difficult to find the pre-ban high cap mags. This will not affect older hobbists, but will but a crimp in teh plans of younger spree shooters who run to Walmart, grab a gun, and use it on a school the next day. Also several aspects of the AWB that limited certain "tactical" applications like shorter, more concealable barrels, and some fore end grips will cut down on a shooter being able to conceal a weapon and walk it into the center of a school, church, or mall before whipping it out to cause death.
Biden knows his shit and will also get input from others who are knowledgeable on the subject and on any shortcomings the previous ban had...like say an end date.
