Feinstein's Wish List

So, here is the fun ban list.  First off, I'm thinking it has a snowball's chance in hell of passing.  However, I have perused and discussed this with my group of shooter friends.  There are many, many issues with the way this list is constructed.  I'll make it a bit of a game.  What is wrong with how they have classed many of these firearms?  I have done a little dissection in private of the weaknesses of this piece of paper.  Now, if this is indeed a page from the actual law then it is horribly sloppy.  If that's the case, I'm not going to line out the legal issues for our opponents.  I'm not closing loopholes for them.  If it's just a press release, well we shall see...

I know a lot of gun people that will have an aneurysm because of how they've "typed" some of these firearms.

  1. I love that they threw in the Wilkinson Arms Linda Carbine. That There were only 2,200 of those made before the company closed in the early 90s.

    I believe she went through a copy of the shooters bible and circled anything that scared her.

    1. Yeah, there's so much wrong and I just want to make fun, but I also don't want to do their work for them.

    2. Heh. Makes one wonder if they do indeed acknowledge that they know nothing about guns, and put together abortions like this, then "leak" it and sit back and lurk and scribble notes as the gun blog-n-forums world shoots holes in it (pun totally intended). Then they review, refine, and resubmit.

      Nah. That would be giving credit for logic and foresight where only knee-jerk and raw-emotion exist.

    3. You know, Rabid, if I gave them more credit for being that smart I'd probably think that was the case. I doubt they're going to see anything I say here about it, but I still don't want to give them even a little bit of help.
