I'm convinced these politicians just ask their kids what guns are in the latest COD or Battlefield game and add them to the list. A picture book might be more likely.

They always put tec9's on that list. Are there any tec9's that haven't been tossed in the garbage yet?
And the Linda carbine, seriously, who owns those? That's definitely an "assault weapon" if I've ever seen one.

Sounds like it. Was just introduced today or tomorrow..don't know. For a state with the 3rd lowest gun related crime rate they sure are going above and beyond. Can only hope nothing happens, but with how liberal this state is it would not surprise me at all.

As far as I can tell....Hawaii has gone full blown retard, no mention of grandfathering at all in the link provided, only this:

§134-D  Relinquishment of assault weapon to law enforcement.  Any individual may arrange in advance to relinquish an assault weapon to a county police department or the department of public safety for disposal, without penalty.

Because we have no (minimal) gun crime, that's why. It's BS.

2-feature test, if I was reading correctly. "detachable magazine and at least 2 of the following" makes it an AW.

So it looks more like a reheat of the 94 bill than CA's SB23.

No question about the homeless problem, tons of them. Along with all the other soon to be homeless who just do nothing other then hang out at the beach drinking.

We are three in the nation in total gun crime, I am guessing 0% is committed with rifles.

Do we have more than a half dozen members there? Aside from the gentleman who replied to this thread earlier I've never seen the user location. I just ask because that will be a tough state to win. Possibly more so than New York. I honestly thought Hawaii already had an AWB along with some other fairly lousy gun laws.

It's Hawaii.  It's the state with the LEAST amount of freedom for gun-owners.  (after Hawaii there's only DC when it comes to 'no freedom')

This is probably why Zero is so anti-gun.

This comes as no surprise, actually I thought we would hear of HI doing an AWB long before any states on the mainland.

When I decided that I wanted an AR was when I was based out of Pearl Harbor. Once that I discovered all of the red tape that had to be delt with I made the decision to wait until my transfer

Nope CA and obviously NY have stricter. We don't need b buttons like ca and can have 30rd mags. As long as they are not for 'assault pistols' but seeing as we don't have assault pistols it makes no sense. We don't need more laws that for sure though. We just have mandatory registration, waiting periods etc.
