That has been it since. I personally am not a 'gun' person but I support the 2nd Amendment all the way down the road. Screw these liberals. I shot two different types of guns at age 16.

These are people that know nothing about firearms and they are attempting to pass legislation to regulate them.

It is a month long shooting tournament. This year is the 100th Anniversary. I would love for Mr. Binden to come and talk to all the shooters. Our liberal Governor Ted Strickland (supposedly Pro-Gun) backed out and so did out liberal Rep. Marcy Kaptur from coming to the opening ceremonies. They don't have the guts to spout their anti-guns views to gun owner’s faces. They are nothing but cowards. Mr. Binden, please come to Camp Perry, OH. We would LOVE to have you. <strong>Liberalism is a disease, and the only cure is death.</strong> I live in the town where Camp Perry is, that is were the NRA holds the National Matches.

Another problem that I noticed during the AWB was that it made it more difficult (not illegal) to buy high capacity pistol magazines. During the AWB a 17 rd Glock pistol magazine retailed for about $115; after the ban they are now around $25. Snowman makes some great points.

However I must correct a few inconistencies concerning the now defunct AWB. First, a person could have 2 of the offending features on their "so-called assault" weapon and still be legal. The offending features? Pistol grip, detachable flashider (threaded barrel for that oh-so scary sound suppressor), folding or telescoping stock, bayonet lug, or a grenade launcher. The AWB also limited magazine capacity to 10 rds or less. One could have two of the features on the list, i.e. pistol grip and standard capacity magazine (because contrary to popular leftist view, there were plenty of pre-ban SC mags available for use), but not three. This silly ban did nothing other than ban certain cosmetic features of a rifle, shotgun, or pistol. Even though several specific models of semi-automatic rifles were listed (such as Poly Technologies AKS-47 and the Beretta AR-70), all the importer or manufacturer had to do was rename the platform, eliminate the 'bad' features', and viola! A post-ban semi-automatic rifle, with the differences between the post-94 rifle and the pre-94 rifle being purely cosmetic in nature. I applaud Jared for taking a stand for what he believes.
