I am calling for your help. As you probably know VT is under assault. The state house just passed a bill with a high cap mag ban among other things. It has to go back to the senate which already passed a version of the bill without the mag ban.

We need a couple senators to flip their vote now that the mag ban has been added to stop at least the mag ban portion of the bill.

Here are some of the senators that could be emailed and swayed to change their vote. Please email them and tell them that you aren't in support of the mag ban added to S.55. Vt people please add more emails that you think could flip. I looked for Dems in rural districts whose constituents wouldn't support this ban. The progressive/socialists of Chittenden county are too far gone.

Please and thank you from all of us in VT!

Well, Vermont has been an island in a sea of insanity for a while as far as gun laws go.
Must be that climate change.........

Ok I was wrong on the Marlin. There is an exemption for rimfires. But it applies to any other tube mags. Antique Henry rifles could not be passed to inheritors since they hold more than 10 and are not rimfire.

Yet another gun law criminals will ignore.

The magazine doesn’t hold more than ten, though. See where I’m going with that? How about put a block inside.

So they did acknowledge (for sure) they are _banning_ Henry and all the other lever action rifles???

One of the Reps on the House floor asked if he would be allowed to pass his antique Henry to his grandson. He was told no. It holds more than 10.

Yes this law absolutely does ban centerfire tube mag lever action rifles that hold more than 10.

Antique Henry was actually .44 rimfire, just to be pedantic. Ammunition has long been unobtanium, last having been produced about 1930.

This is really stupid legislation. Vermont??!

With real estate taxes so high on non resident owners, it’s a wonder to me why anyone would ever go back to Vermont. Real Vermonters have always been liberals, with a social contract with the Yankees and their love of guns. The real Yankees are almost gone. And the gun laws will go with them.

The upside is they hardly have any cops.

Henry will be OK. I think. For now. The centerfire rifles hold 10, for example the lever action .357

This is just complete BS through and through. Very sad, for those kids slaughtered at their schools, their parents, family and friends. Completely due to liberal nonsense.

Now they go after everything and everyone to divert attention away from where it squarely belongs - on them. This whole “March” business is damage control. They are spending pallets of cash to insure these kids never, ever connect the dots and focus their (justifiable) anger where it needs to go.

The Henry in question was an antique not new production. Probably one of the old 44 caliber ones. A real piece of American history which will be fed into a wood chipper instead of passed on to his grandson.

People should explain and illustrate that magazine capacity has no bearing on one’s ability to fire more than 10 rounds, or in the case of a 1911,7 rounds. Anyone can perform a magazine change in under two seconds. Take a look...

Ask the governor if he read his history books? “Those who cannot learn from history, are doomed to repeat it.”

That’s the point on all these issues. There are billions of American owned pistol magazines. There is noway the government will ever collect them.

Was easy to paste your row of contacts into one email.
I told them “you pass this and this family won’t be visiting Vermont anymore”

took 5 seconds to do, go for it.

So will you have to register non-complying firearms?

The bill has UBC which is defacto registration, but I’m not aware of any registration provision in the bill.
