A few years ago SCOTUS ruled,in "Caetano v Massachusetts" that weapons commonly in use today qualify for Constitutional protection despite the fact that they weren't in existence on the day that the Constitution was ratified.

I'm no Constitutional scholar but it seems that a bill like this would be struck down by the courts.

And BTW...the vote in the Caetano case was 9-0.

This old bag goes on and on, like some wind-up toy. The US tried a “assault weapon” ban for 10 years. An actual after-the-fact study was done and there was no improvement in crime, gun crimes, gun violence, etc. The ban did nothing but incite the crimnals to move to other weapons — and carry on.
