The attack in the AR-15 was always just the first step…..the AR-15 was the Trojan Horse…….they get that rifle banned, then demand all other semi-automatic rifles, pistols and shotguns….and then, after that, they come back for the rest…..
This is where the anti-gun fanatics and their useful idiots step in and deny the truth.……
This video from pro-freedom patriot Colion Noir gives a good rundown on the facts in this case.
Most damning is this exchange between Dan Bishop (R) and chairman of the Judiciary Committee Jerry Nadler (D) in a congressional committee meeting during the markup of the bill on July 20, 2022:
Bishop: Is there anyone on the other side that would dispute that this bill would ban weapons that are in common use in the United States today?
Nadler: Yeah, that's the point of the bill.
Bishop: To clarify, Mr. Chairman, you're saying it is the point of the bill to ban weapons that are in common use in the United States today?
Nadler: Yes, the problem is they are in common use.

The bottom line is that if you have a semi-automatic rifle with a detachable magazine with "any other characteristic that can function as a grip," or a semi-automatic pistol that has a magazine that is not a fixed magazine with one of the myriad features listed, then congratulations! You're now the proud owner of an "assault weapon."
Does anyone want to wager that the phrase "function as a grip" is going to be subjectively interpreted in the same manner that a piece of plastic was deemed to be a "machine gun"? Because that might be the only way of distinguishing between a gun that is "allowed" under this unconstitutional monstrosity and an "assault weapon."
Unlike the old ban, you need only one feature, not two, to be in the "assault weapon" club these days. Plus, to sweeten the deal, they've decided to also ban standard-capacity magazines. Because tyranny is never satisfied with halfway measures.
But not to worry: the anti-liberty left ever so graciously exempts — for now — certain types of firearms:
