I doubt it.  Mostly the listed things and maybe the 89 import thing...

BTW:  Doesn't Ron Paul introduce this same thing every year?

ETA:  Never mind the doubt.  SHIT YEAH!  USAS-12's for everyone!

so if it were to pass, SBS would be legal without a form 4?  if so, what about the people that already paid for their tax stamps?

No, no.

Short barreled shotguns would still be regulated.

It's just that shotguns would no longer be destructive devices
