The “assault weapons” ban legislation that passed the House Judiciary Committee Wednesday not only prohibits AR-15s and AK-47s, but numerous semiautomatic pistols and shotguns as well.
The legislation, H.R. 1808, is sponsored by Rep. David Cicilline (D-RI).
On July 15, 2022, Breitbart News warned that H.R. 1808 bans the manufacture and sale of at least 45 specific AR-15 rifles , including, “Bushmaster ACR, Bushmaster Carbon 15, Bushmaster MOE series, Bushmaster XM15, Chiappa Firearms MFour rifles, Colt Match Target rifles, CORE Rifle Systems CORE15 rifles, Daniel Defense M4A1 rifles, Devil Dog Arms 15 Series rifles,” as well as the Diamondback DB15 rifles.
Moreover, it bans the manufacture and sale of all AR-pistols, and thirteen are specifically listed: “American Spirit AR–15 pistol, Bushmaster Carbon 15 pistol, Chiappa Firearms M4 Pistol GEN II, CORE Rifle Systems CORE15 Roscoe pistol, Daniel Defense MK18 pistol, DoubleStar Corporation AR pistol, DPMS AR–15 pistol, Jesse James Nomad AR–15 pistol, Olympic Arms AR–15 pistol, Osprey Armament MK–18 pistol, POF USA AR pistols, Rock River Arms LAR 15 pistol,” and the “Uselton Arms Air-Lite M–4 pistol.”
But the language of H.R. 1808 also makes clear the legislation bans numerous semiautomatic pistols as well.
The ban applies to semiautomatic pistols with detachable magazines and threaded barrels. Because of the popularity of suppressors for hearing protection, nearly every semiautomatic pistol manufacturer makes pistol models with threaded barrels. This means an untold number of semiautomatic pistols would be banned by H.R. 1808.
Also, any semiautomatic pistol with a fixed magazine capable of holding more than ten rounds would be banned, as would any semiautomatic shotgun with a fixed magazine holding more than five rounds.
H.R. 1808 also bans semiautomatic shotguns that accept detachable magazines and have a pistol grip.

Democrats are trying to jin up the gun grabbers and abortionists in a desperate attempt to keep control of the house.
The problem is people who vote because of gun control issues most likely are voting against gun control.
People who vote for politicians who support gun control want goodies from the government, gun control just may or may not come along with said goodies.
We cannot even deport a few million illegal alien invaders because it would be “Too hard”.
Unlike illegals, firearms may be stored in very small spaces and do not require oxygen, food, or toilet facilities to survive.
Firearms hidden away from as far back as the revolutionary war still turn up on occasion.
The anti’s could not achieve their goal in a hundred years, but they might destroy the foundations of our country.
Lots of the banned weapons are the types that you may need when the Feds come a’ knockin’...
Saw that. Since he was in the foyer of the bathroom, less chance to hit someone else.
I think there are now 25 States with Constitutional Carry, what if some or all of them passed this Identical Law and included ALL Federal Employees as prohibited persons!!!
House cannot pass unconstitutional legislation on its own.
Takes Senate and President as well.
Then has to survive SCOTUS.
NFA-34 is the model they are going to try for.
After all, it is “Settled Law” that has been in force for nearly a hundred years.
Should have been repealed or ruled unconstitutional from the day of passage.
But the MSM of the time worked the same sort of hysteria that is being pushed now.
It was a miss from the first day. But, here we are.
Does that ban also affect our belt fed weapons?
Asking for a friend.
M-40-s are single shot as are cannons.
Even a single action colt is semi-automatic.
I tend to think that the "tax" and controls on fully automatic weapons and artillery ("destructive devices") will stand because they are "unusual and dangerous," although they are "unusual" only because of the law itself.
I tend to think the restrictions on "short barreled" weapons and suppressors will go, as well as any state or Federal "assault weapons" bans and high capacity magazine bans. This is strongly suggested by the reversals and remands coming out of Bruen.
The rule of law is dead.
The rule of law is dead.
The rule of law is dead.
Backstrap of chubby liberal femanazi being vegan and organic has got to be good eats. Long pork on the smoker anyone? I’m guessing soyboy also organic and vegan would be an acceptable second. If the world goes all madmax I’m not going hungry ha.
Well, they’ve got this on the table in the event that there’s a mass shooting that fills the bill between now and the midterms. When it fails, blame the Republicans.
19 April, 1775.
Remember the date.
I fear that SCOTUS might go the way of the first fifteen minutes of “Soylent green”.
The assassin ask his victim, “So, this is right?”, to which the victim replies, “No, but necessary”.
SCOTUS might fully realize that the alleged “Law” is unconstitutional but not rule that way as they no longer feel that Americans can be trusted with the intent of the 2A.
MSM manufactured lies and hysteria coupled with a corrupt Fed. Gov. brought us the NFA. I fear that precedent.
“Domestic Enemies” would be equally applicable.
But Rat Party Headquarters doesn't care about constitutionality. They just pass a law knowing that it will take years for it to be overturned...and then they pass another.
