What I read from this decision : The fix is in. The AR15 is gone. There is no due process. It’s been phoned in.
The AR15 has already been banned. Prepare, those who need to only have a matter of days now.

“Bushmaster is done as a brand. For that matter, most AR type rifles may be banned soon..”

I believe you are both right.
Looks like this is the “price”, the “bargaining chip” the Republicans will consent to in order to get the ‘rats off their backs on this issue in view of current events.
- The AR-15 and all variants will be banned from sale.
- Current owners may get to keep theirs, but will probably be banned from selling them or passing them to heirs.
- Folks who don’t own one will be banned from possessing one, period. They won’t even be able to buy (or be given or inherit) an older one.
- ALL magazines to fit AR-15’s, regardless of capacities, will be banned from sales or transfers.
- Probably restrictions on .223 ammo, too.
The Bushmaster (AR-15) was the weapon of choice in this incident. To make it “go away” will be the sacrifice the Pubbies offer, in exchange for leaving everything else alone.
Don’t like it (as I’m sure you don’t), but that’s what I see coming down the pike...
those letters will go but the item will continue.
