M<y first rifle was an M1 carbine, .30 caliber, with a detachable clip that held 9 if you filled it all the way. It was a selectable with a semi-auto possibility but I never tried it out.

If I’m reading this right, they are saying any rifle with mid range ammo that feeds with a detachable clip, is considered an assault rifle. Well, in the case of my youth weapon, even the second generation M2 had a range of around 200 yards which disqualified it as defined to be an assault weapon. And the M2 had a greater range than the M!.

So that blows Moonbeam’s theory on the definition of an assault weapon. He’s signing bills for laws he knows nothing about.
