Just an FYI - the current bill pending for the renewal of the so called assault weapon ban - H. R. 2038 - will in effect ban almost all semi-automatic handguns. Why is no one talking about this, are they missing it? This is actual text from the bill:
`(F) A semiautomatic pistol that has the ability to accept a detachable magazine, and has--
`(iv) the capacity to accept a detachable magazine at a location outside of the pistol grip.
So couldn't that be interpreted as any pistol that has the capacity to accept an 'extended' magazine?
Read it for yourself here:
