    Details:

    The legislation bans the sale, transfer, manufacturing and importation of:

    All semiautomatic rifles that can accept a detachable magazine and have at least one military feature: pistol grip; forward grip; folding, telescoping, or detachable stock; grenade launcher or rocket launcher; barrel shroud; or threaded barrel.

    All semiautomatic pistols that can accept a detachable magazine and have at least one military feature: threaded barrel; second pistol grip; barrel shroud; capacity to accept a detachable magazine at some location outside of the pistol grip; or semiautomatic version of an automatic firearm.

    All semiautomatic rifles and handguns that have a fixed magazine with the capacity to accept more than 10 rounds.

    All semiautomatic shotguns that have a folding, telescoping, or detachable stock; pistol grip; fixed magazine with the capacity to accept more than 5 rounds; ability to accept a detachable magazine; forward grip; grenade launcher or rocket launcher; or shotgun with a revolving cylinder.

    All ammunition feeding devices (magazines, strips, and drums) capable of accepting more than 10 rounds.

    157 specifically-named firearms (listed at the end of this document).

    The legislation excludes the following weapons from the bill:

    Any weapon that is lawfully possessed at the date of the bill’s enactment;

    Any firearm manually operated by a bolt, pump, lever or slide action;

    Assault weapons used by military, law enforcement, and retired law enforcement; and

    Antique weapons.

    The legislation protects hunting and sporting firearms:

    The bill excludes 2,258 legitimate hunting and sporting rifles and shotguns by specific make and model.

    The legislation strengthens the 1994 Assault Weapons Ban and state bans by:

    Moving from a 2-characteristic test to a 1-characteristic test.

    (The bill also makes the ban harder to evade by eliminating the easy-to-remove bayonet mounts and flash suppressors from the characteristics test.)

    Banning dangerous after-market modifications and work-arounds.

    Bump or slide fire stocks, which are modified stocks that enable semi-automatic weapons to fire at rates similar to fully automatic machine guns.

    So-called “bullet buttons” that allow the rapid replacement of ammunition magazines, frequently used as a work-around to prohibitions on detachable magazines.

    Thumbhole stocks, a type of stock that was created as a work-around to avoid prohibitions on pistol grips.

    Adding a ban on the importation of assault weapons and large-capacity magazines.

    Eliminating the 10-year sunset that allowed the original federal ban to expire.

    The legislation addresses the millions of assault weapons and large-capacity magazines currently in existence by:

    Requiring a background check on all sales or transfers of a grandfathered assault weapon.

    (This background check can be run through the FBI or, if a state chooses, initiated with a state agency, as with the existing background check system.)

    Prohibiting the sale or transfer of large-capacity ammunition feeding devices lawfully possessed on the date of enactment of the bill.

    Allowing states and localities to use federal Byrne JAG grant funds to conduct a voluntary buy-back program for grandfathered assault weapons and large-capacity ammunition feeding devices.

    Imposing a safe storage requirement for grandfathered firearms, to keep them away from prohibited persons.

    Requiring that assault weapons and large-capacity ammunition feeding devices manufactured after the date of the bill’s enactment be engraved with the serial number and date of manufacture of the weapon

    Making a forward grip a "bad feature" appears to make all semi-auto shotguns illegal to possess under this bill.

    Wow, there are no limits to the stupidity in this bill. If this turd passes I will be extremely unhappy with her... I have tools and technology, if she really believes she can beat tools, technology, and innovation she is sorely mistaken.

    Oh, by the way, her bill will ban ALL GLOCK 17's and 19's (perhaps more, like the 22,23,24,26,34, and 35?), how? Here is how, all semiautomatic pistols that can accept a detachable magazine and have at least one military feature: semiautomatic version of an automatic firearm. The GLOCK 18, will take mags and is functionally compatible with all those Glocks, many of which are dimensionally identical to the Glock 18.

    What I'd like to know is how I/we can help stop this?? I have signed a couple petitions with the NRA and ACG something or another. Anything else?

    Sorry, I am not marching on DC.

    In the end, tyranny can only be stopped through violence. Read some history.

    I'm not condoning violence. It's just a historical observation.

    Found the "excludes law enforcement" part some what humorous, the dems way of getting on their knees to buy more votes. ANY politician that even thinks of letting this turd on the house floor, I will do my damnedest to make sure they near see the inside of the capital building come election time. NRA better get the big boy pants on cause its going to get ruff.

    This is so unenforcable I am just laughing my ass off about it.

    What's she going to do ban tools too. Good luck, maybe if she bans the wheel she can pull this off! I have a welder. a lathe, a mill, and I know how to use them.
