The United States is NOT a "Democracy" whereby 51% can vote away the rights of 49% - we have a Republic with a Bill of Rights which limits government and recognized God-given rights which cannot be taken away. This is the KEY issue. BUT we still those CONservative celebrity politicians and talking heads repeating the lie that we are a democracy. I give President Trump much credit for emphasizing at the State of the Union address that we are a Republic - now is the time for him to back up his words with strategy and action. Always trying to have the majority on the side of the 2nd Amendment will NOT work in the long run and certainly will NOT work in high-population democrat/socialist/communist districts. What takes the power away from the democrat/socialist/communist strategy or redistricting and flooding cities (with illegals who can vote/immigrants who want their flavor of socialism they are used to) is a strict adherence to what a Republic is.

Quoted:
Not they. I am simply reading what is written and concluding that since a) they did not exempt NFA items b) a judge would likely find that the legislative intent would include machine guns if it includes semi automatics as well and c) most machine guns can be used in semi automatic mode or can be converted to semi automatic, therefore they satisfy the definition as it stands. VA has over 35k registered machine guns. Even if 10k of those are post 86 dealer samples (this ratio aligns with the national ration of transferable to non-transferable MGs in the NFATR), that's 25,000 machine guns that will either be sold out of state before HB 961 goes into effect or become locked out of the market unless the owner moves to a different state. At current MG pricing (avg. $20k for transferable), that's around $500 million in inventory that could be pushed into the market in a very short period of time.

If anyone hasn't read the amended copy that passed, here's a link" https://committees.lis.virginia.gov/pdfs/drafts/20107888D.pdf Chasing around all the little amendments to other statutes that it affects and stuff like changing from "Shall" to "Is", strikethroughs, it's crazy. I don't like when they change "Shall" to "Is". Not a lawyer, but "shall" and "may" are important words. "Is" and other changes like it bother me, but I don't know why. My reading of this revised version is that you can gift an assault firearm to a family member and that the executor of a will / estate can transfer (only transfer, NOT SELL) to a beneficiary. There is no provision to allow one to sell to a licensed dealer or to an out of state buyer. § 18.2-308.9 (A) also states: "Assault firearm" includes any part or combination of parts designed or intended to convert, 418 modify, or otherwise alter a firearm into an assault firearm, or any combination of parts that may be readily 419 assembled into an assault firearm. "Assault firearm" does not include (i) a firearm that has been rendered 420 permanently inoperable, (ii) an antique firearm as defined in § 18.2-308.2:2, or (iii) a curio or relic as 421 defined in § 18.2-308.2:2. That definition would make a machine gun, which can be readily assembled into a semi automatic meeting the other criteria, fall into the category. These two sections, when combined, basically means if you own machine guns in VA you can never sell them so long as you remain a VA resident, and your heirs can inherit them but not sell them if they are also VA residents.

Now this "what if"
What if I move out of State (retirement to someplace else). Can I export my "Assault Weapons" with me? Also, if I were to take my "Assault Weapon" out of Virginia (out of State shoot, hunt, CC) would bringing it back into Virginia be considered "importing" an "Assault Weapon". |

Virginians have four free states bordering them West Virginia,Kentucky, Tennessee,and North Carolina.
