Feinstein et al will try a new gun ban and it will look like this I predict: Assault Weapons Ban Reauthorization Act of 2003 (Introduced in Senate) S 1034 IS 108th CONGRESS 1st Session S. 1034 To repeal the sunset date on the assault weapons ban, to ban the importation of large capacity ammunition feeding devices, and for other purposes. IN THE SENATE OF THE UNITED STATES May 8, 2003 Mrs. FEINSTEIN (for herself, Mr. SCHUMER, Mr. CHAFEE, Mr. JEFFORDS, Mr. KENNEDY, Mr. DURBIN, Mr. LAUTENBERG, Mrs. BOXER, and Mr. REED) introduced the following bill; which was read twice and referred to the Committee on the Judiciary -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A BILL To repeal the sunset date on the assault weapons ban, to ban the importation of large capacity ammunition feeding devices, and for other purposes. Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE. This Act may be cited as the `Assault Weapons Ban Reauthorization Act of 2003'. SEC. 2. REPEAL OF SUNSET DATE. Section 110105 of the Public Safety and Recreational Firearms Use Protection Act (18 U.S.C. 921 note) is amended to read as follows: `SEC. 110105. EFFECTIVE DATE. `This subtitle and the amendments made by this subtitle shall take effect on September 13, 1994.'. SEC. 3. BAN ON IMPORTING LARGE CAPACITY AMMUNITION FEEDING DEVICES. (a) IN GENERAL- Section 922(w) of title 18, United States Code, is amended-- (1) in paragraph (1), by striking `(1) Except as provided in paragraph (2)' and inserting `(1)(A) Except as provided in subparagraph (B)'; (2) in paragraph (2), by striking `(2) Paragraph (1)' and inserting `(B) Subparagraph (A)'; (3) by inserting before paragraph (3) the following: `(2) It shall be unlawful for any person to import a large capacity ammunition feeding device.'; and (4) in paragraph (4)-- (A) by striking `(1)' each place it appears and inserting `(1)(A)'; and (B) by striking `(2)' and inserting `(1)(B)'. (b) CONFORMING AMENDMENT- Section 921(a)(31) of title 18, United States Code, is amended by striking `manufactured after the date of enactment of the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act of 1994'. Basically she will ressurrect the bill I posted above. It will reenact the 1994 ban without the sunset clause however and ban the import of over 10 round mags. Reason? She is not sure she has the votes in the House to pass a ban and will not want to go too far. |
