These substitute amendments are typically used for fixing grammar or spellchecking bills, but it's also a way to get [sneak] law into the final bill text without having it be voted on.

Sorry, but Republicans know damned well that this is what Dems do. There's no excuse for Republicans to be hoodwinked unless they wanted to be and squeal about it after the fact.

I’m not sure why undetectable guns are a good thing?

Because I have a hidden knife. ZOINK!

If it wasn’t for the NRA, there would be no GOA.

One brave Republican (I know, I know) needs to sneak this little gem into the next 50,000 page budget bill:

18 USC 922 (o) is hereby repealed.

I remember that 1988 law. it was in response to the plastic framed Glock firearm which was claimed could now pass through metal detectors. It as usual was an anti-gun lie.

At that time there was a series of aircraft hijackings in the middle east. A photo of the hijackers showed they were armed with standard framed semi-auto firearms that looked like the full metal Browning Hi-Power.

There has gotten to be too much of a gap between the intelligence required to plausibly appear in the puppet show and the actual IQ of the recently selected puppets.

The grand performance is thus suffering from an acute lack of verisimilitude. :)

In fact, modern detection technology can spot all objects, including guns regardless of the materials of their construction.”

So this would be good for detecting ‘trans’s’ in sports competitions.

That link goes to a questionnaire that can be sent to our reps in Congress. Useful. A link to the original article would be handy.

Word has it that the NRA is telling house members that this is no big deal. So was Cornan’s betrayal last year... See how that has been weaponized. This UFA Act was a show law passed in 1988 because of movie guns> It even had an expiration date because it was such a POS. On top of that it was passed by acclamation not roll call vote. No one had to take responsibility for the “legislation”. Let’s see this out of the NDAA and watch it collapse once it is exposed to a little debate.

“Shall not be infringed unless the firearm is made out of materials that cannot be seen by a 1980’s era metal detector” wouldn’t fit in the Amendment.

I’m not sure undetectable guns exist in the real world! Consider the component called ammunition. We are talking about guns. Guns are tools that cause the rapid propulsion of a projectile by means of explosive combustion. No current ammunition is undetectable nor are the springs and pins necessary to activate ammunition undetectable.
If undetectable is the criteria, there are numerous other means of propulsion including rubber bands and inertial slings that fit the bill for exotic weapons that are undetectable and really do work.
