This is what they did with the healthcare bill. The house passed one thing, the senate stripped it and replaced it with something else and then passed that.
No.
They said this “The NRA strongly opposes ANY expansion of the Undetectable Firearms Act”
which is not the same as opposing the Act itself.
That sucks.
I need about 2k WSR primers, another 1k CCI 300’s, another #8 jug of Accurate 2230, IMR 800x, and a bunch of projectiles for .223, .30-30, and .38/.357.

With the expiration of the so-called Undetectable Firearms Act (UFA) rapidly approaching on December 9th, misinformation over this issue and NRA’s position on it has unfortunately reached a heightened level.
We would like to make our position clear. The NRA strongly opposes ANY expansion of the Undetectable Firearms Act, including applying the UFA to magazines, gun parts, or the development of new technologies. The NRA has been working for months to thwart expansion of the UFA by Senator Chuck Schumer and others. We will continue to aggressively fight any expansion of the UFA or any other proposal that would infringe on our Second Amendment rights.
Unlike the Schumer proposal, the vote today in the U.S. House of Representatives on H.R. 3626, sponsored by Rep. Howard Coble, is a simple 10-year reauthorization -- NOT an expansion -- of current law. Other than extending the sunset date, H.R. 3626 makes no changes whatsoever to the underlying act.
Some groups have been circulating misinformation in order to create confusion over today’s House vote. To be clear, Rep. Coble’s bill DOES NOT expand current law in any way, as Sen. Schumer’s proposal would do.
Again, the NRA strongly opposes any expansion of the Undetectable Firearms Act. By simply reauthorizing current law, however, H.R. 3626 does not expand the UFA in any way.
Apparently, NRA has no objection to EXTENDING the idiotic, worthless, and unconstitutional "Undetectable Firearms Act". The NRA does not represent me or my views on this matter. The act should be allowed to sunset; it should NOT be extended. NRA is wrong.
Is there a scheduled mass shooting this weekend?
It doesn’t have zero Republican votes if it passed the house.
Hold on..... (typing).... Yes. Got it right here. Seventeen fatalities, twenty-two injuries, scheduled in a mall in North Carolina, perp will have a Glock. Should begin Saturday morning, unless our handlers can't get the guy riled-up enough tonight. He will -- as is always our custom -- shoot himself.
That is good comrade
But then Obamacare had to go back to the House, where it was passed by the then Dem majority under Speaker Pelosi.
There’s definitely a ramp up underway. Couple anti gun troupes are hitting the airwaves with new ads in major buys.
Unlike the Schumer proposal, the vote today in the U.S. House of Representatives on H.R. 3626, sponsored by Rep. Howard Coble, is a simple 10-year reauthorization — NOT an expansion — of current law.

Come on Texans, How do you let this 82 year old fossil stay in the House? Looks as though he needs a drool cup!
Boehner will let it come up for a vote, bet on it. Even if most of the votes it gets are dims.
He’s bought or blackmailed. Maybe both.
Does an undetectable gun fire an undetectable bullet? If no, then it’s just a nice looking paperweight.
“...The government we deserve?...”
No.
But the one we’re willing to put up with, for sure.
In the SENATE.
If the Senate changes the House bill and then passes it, would the House have to vote on the bill again, because it was changed by the Senate?
