Then he definitely would not like my WWII/Korea vintage M-1 .308 with the 8-round clip or my M-14 7.62mm NATO with a 10-round magazine.

IIRC those were both specifically listed on the last attempted AWB, along with the M1 carbine.

1) the M-14 is a full auto weapon, placed in service in the mid-1950's to replace the M1. The civilian version is called the M1A, which is a semi-automatic (i.e. self-loading, one shot per trigger pull) rifle. Both come standard with a 20-round box magazine, though you can obtain others (5, 10, 15, 25 and 30 that I've seen, not all of which are reliable - esp. those made in Red China).

2) I suspect that he'd dislike either one even more if the rounds are loaded with AP bullets (still plenty out there, folks).

He’d like my scoped NM M1A with the standard twenty round mag even less.
