Already emailed my district senator. encouraging others to do the same. if we give them any hint that this could pass and have some merit they will see an opening and everything we have now will spiral down the toilet.
don't think that others will speak up and you don't need to. all it takes is an email to your district senator. DO IT! |

yup, and I know he would never pass this. But I have a feeling that this is just a feeler, to see how far the Dems can get an anti bill thru. Then they will modify it and start pushing little pieces bit by bit.

Interesting tidbit I found. Ricket's wife was senator Wayne's second largest contributor to the tune of 10,000 right behind the state education association. The police local 101 also shelled out 2500...

I read the text and it looks like it would ban SBRs, SBSs, and machineguns too. Maybe I’m wrong but read page 3 lines 23-25. Id quote it but I’m at work typing on the phone and it’s a pain. Wrote my rep and told him if it passes I’m gonna take my tax money and suppressor and go across the river to Iowa where I wouldn’t be a felon.

I can see merit for it. It's a very cheap way to get rid of the background check requirement. Having worked in a gun store it pisses me off whenever I see delay on a background check. I personally like the idea of not having background checks as they are blatantly unconstitutional, but it doesn't change the fact that this is a nice, legal, way to circumvent them, for $5.

For 5 bucks I agree. I just treated it like a convenience fee. However, once they start to raise the price who says they'll stop? Suddenly you need a 100 dollar permit to buy a pistol. Then the initial cost of the pistol, holster, extra magazines, ammo, and basic pistol training. Then you get to give the state another 100 for your permit after paying for the ccw class. The ccw also has the same benefits plus the ability to carry a firearm.

Suppressors are already super regulated. The absurdity of the bumpfire ban is with a few minutes and a belt I'm bumping from the hip, a few more and I'm doing it without anything special. It's a gateway, every bumpfire ban I've read is a road to ban semi auto firearms or a way to limit rate of fire through magazine capacity or a manual reload like California.

today is the day! the bumpstock and suppressor bill is due for testimony in the Judiciary Committee today at 130pm CT. let the committee members know your feelings! they need to hear from you!
however, looks like the Ammo Excise Tax bill is dead for this year. Sen Wayne will not push it this year. also, since Sen Chambers prairie dog bill was killed, he's all pissed and cranky. he's dragging stuff down. he threatening pretty much every bill. in his time at the mic, he showed all the faxes that he received from the "gun nuts." it was at least a ream or two of paper. never a dull moment. |

All of which made good valid points, except one guy who I did not agree with. Cant remember his name but flouted his PRS status and claimed the current bill was not specific enough and his aftermarket triggers in his PRS could be in violation, and how the bill needs to ban rate of fire instead of accessories like triggers, and bump stocks. Chambers seemed to like what this guy was saying, and to me, basically said he was going to ignore everyone else b/c this is the only guy who knew what he was talking about. Other speakers against the bill stated how they use bump stocks for testing purposes of metallurgy, testing, etc. for their jobs and committee members were interested in a "research" clause. Those testifying said no to a research clause. Chambers rattled on about stupid shit. I think at one point he said something about John Wayne running around with machine guns...idk when he talks my brain melts. Some things I would have liked to see was an explanation between what makes a semi auto different than FA rifle, and how a bump fire stock only assists an individual on reaching a rate of fire that the semi auto is already capable of reaching, with or without a bump stock. More in depth explanation, on bump firing being a technique not an accessory. I don't think the committee members understood the references to using rubber bands and belt loops to achieve the same effect as bump fire. |

Sen Chambers thinks no one can own an MG in NE. a testifier corrected him about the NFA tax. i would have stayed quiet. if he researches it more, you might see a bill about outlawing MG's next year. the one guys seemed more like a "I support the 2nd Amend, but...." i was not a fan of his testimony, but he did testify. in her closing Sen Pansing-Brooks mentioned something about we are not after your guns, we just don't like this accessory. we are going after this accessory. well, guess what... a stripped lower is a firearm, everything else connected to it is an accessory. so screw that slippery slope bullshit. in case someone missed it, there is an amendment that would take out suppressors from the bill, so thats good. but the bill still sucks. |

Pretty easy to tell when Chambers was baiting opponents. He did it continually though out the hearing., I wished they'd put a time limit on how long a Sen can bloviate without dealing with the subject at hand. The competitive shooter didn't help us, and agreed he gave the only testimony Ernie would listen to. PPB took cans out of the bill in her opening statement, I'm sure to get everyone to back down but the bill still stinks.

I know there were few supporters, but lots of opposition. Doubt it goes anywhere. This year is a budget year and Chambers is pissed over lots of things.... Prairie dogs, Mt lions, sexual assault, Trump, NE Supreme Court judge, white people, etc. |

Yeah, they can outlaw them inside city limits. But that would all go away if LB68 wod ever get passed. There will be a hearing on it. I urge you to go and speak against it. That's much better than an email or letter. Not sure when it is, but check 10/11s website for the story. If you more help, I'll ask the NFOA is they have any pointers.
