I'm at the LGS and there is lots of talk about the new restrictive bills they are trying to get passed.

I haven't heard anything about them. Are they the same ones that get held for  further study every year?

I'm sure they are the same or similar and most likely so.e new stuff.

They were introduced  (not sure if that is the correct term to use) on January 19, 2017.

What LGS?

I saw the post from RI Gun Blog on facebook about the bills. 10 round limit no grandfather clause.  Unfortunately, I have not had the chance to visit any LGS or the gun club recently to hear anything further about it. With all the winning President Trump is accomplishing with the rest of the country we can't become complacent here at home.

Cranston Gun and Coin.

They had a print out of the additions to the current gun laws.

Mag Cap limit at 10 rounds.
Gun with tube or permanently attached mags (tube mags) that hold more than 10 rounds would be illegal and must be sold out of state or give to your local PD for destruction/addition to LEO home collection.

There were a few other things too that I can't think of.

Good luck. If all works for me, I'll be out of here shortly, and settling in Tx.

I haven't had the time to make up the annual gun law thread I've done over the past couple years.

If you all would like me to make and maintain the thread speak up and I'll get one going.

It's going to be very easy to become complacent this year after the last sessions ending in everything being tabled, but remember Cuntmundo is still receiving money and being pressured to take away our rights.

Also, there were a lot of great gun bills last year that would have benefited not only us, but our neighbors in other states as well. Those too fell by the wayside unfortunately.

Is it time to push for legalizing suppressors in RI ?

A bill is in place for it this year.

not going to get my hopes up, but that would be a dream come true, born and raised in RI and pretty much all my family and most of my friends are there, but will never move back unless they get some NFA action.

I wouldn't move back there even if they did get NFA action.  I was born & raised there.  Moved from there almost 12 years ago and have watched the state decline into a mini California/CT.

A three letter agency is backing the suppressor bill, not formally, but they are backing it. Supressor companies are being called in for demonstrations to the Legislature to show they are not like in the movies. The bill is for supressors on items over 17" in length. So no handgun supressors, but rifle supressors are something that could happen.

There is also a bill to try for reciprocity with CT and Mass as well for those with permits.

Also the antis are getting a lot of school committee support for the "No Guns in Schools" Bill, this would make it illegal for those with permits to enter on school grounds, only allowing police. The worse thing is these school committees seem to be voting on these issues with little to know heads up. For instance Warwick voted to support it last week, and I didn't even see it on the docket.

Also. The is a friends of the NRA/ILA benefit in Coventry Monday night, at Fat Bellys as a fundraiser. The RI Coa-lition against US fine people has donors willing to triple whatever is donated to their cause. So if you got some spare cash, donating this year would not be a bad investment.

Where: Fat Belly’s Irish Pub and Grill, 760 Tiogue Ave, Coventry.

Suggested
Donation: $25. To comply with State finance laws we can only accept checks. Make check out to “RI NRA-PVF” and put “RI PAC” in the memo field on the check. If you cannot make it to the fund raiser, feel free to mail your check to:

NRA-ILA, Attn: Ray Smith

The enemy is well funded this year guys. We need to swamp the house and Seneate this year, and support the ILA. Don't forget we are also facing a mag ban again.

Just a reminder to the above!

Gents,

APRIL 25th we need to be at the statehouse!!!!
