Go ahead ban all magazines that make a firearm fully automatic.

I'm gonna have to hear the explanation of how that works.

Correct me if I am wrong but one of the States had a law that 30+ round magazines made any firearm a machine gun? I know that I have read about it here.

Ohio. No longer the case but prior to the law change any firearm (excepting a firearm chambered in .22lr) with a magazine capable of holding more than 30 rounds inserted was legally a machine gun. You could however legally own the magazine itself iirc.

That was Ohio. The law was that anything above 30rds was verboten since only MGs uses them. The law didn't state that mags made guns into MGs.

Yup. A shocking number of people wouldn’t even question it - sadly a decent number of them would be Republican.

No, he really is an idiot. He knows as much about guns as a pre-schooler knows about life. He don't care though, because the idiots that voted him in don't know anything either, just "guns are icky"

My local congresswoman - who is likely the dumbest person I've ever had the misfortune of speaking to - tried (unsuccessfully) to ban "assault ammunition" in 2012. You'd think she'd have learned to half-assedly Google something before talking about it, but she just recently proposed the "SAFER" act which would, in her own words, "ban high-capacity ammunition."

I really don't know for sure anymore if it's true ignorance or propaganda that they know their misinformed constituents will believe. I really don't.

I think we should thank him - his email is [email protected]

Fred,

I recently was shown a letter that your office penned in response to a constituent's inquiry about the fact that despite the plethora of gun control in Chicago it still has some of the worst gun violence in the world per capita.

What jumped out at me was not the party line call for "common sense" gun confiscation that your party advocates. It was the farcical claims that run contrary to the truth. First, gun control is not popular. It has been a losing issue for decades for your party. Second and most laughable is that a magazine's round capacity makes a weapon fully automatic. To claim this is so utterly stupid it ranks up there with Hank Johnson in open session voicing his concern Guam will capsize and tip over.

All I really wanted to express was that I encourage you and your party to continue to make such weak arguments fueled with facts as real as unicorn farts - because that is what got MAGA elected and will help us deplorables in the midterms.

Faithfully yours clinging to my Lord's Word and my AR15 -

Chuck

Original NFA 1934 language defined anything that could have more than 11 or 14 (I forget) rounds as a fully automatic machine gun.

It's very complex and unless you are of blessed with an intelligence FAR advanced beyond his average constituent, mere mortals just wouldn't understand it ...

It has something to do with Magnets - (How DO they work???)

So if a higher capacity magazine turns a rifle in to a machine gun, will a full tank of gas turn my SUV in to a race car? It's time for low capacity gas tanks!!! 5 gallons max, and no dangerous cold air intakes or nitrous, or spoilers on the back!!!

Full auto?
I have been using my high capacity magazines incorrectly.
I feel so silly.

It's called shotgun legislation, throw everything against the wall so they can "Compromise" and only pass the less restrictive items (this time).

I know quite well what a moron is. This guy is a representative. He is representative of his constituents of whom are also morons. I guarantee the man has no useful working knowledge of firearms. He is just parroting the garbage sent to him by his leadership. He knows damn well most of his sheep have no clue either. I'll bet my next paycheck if you asked him to explain how a magazine makes a weapon fully automatic, you would get the usual "we need to keep the guns out of the hands of criminals" type nonsense, as if somehow that is a legitimate answer.
