Yes it's real it's proposed by the democrats. It will never pass. Not even with a democrat majority. There would be revolt. The military, FBI, most ATF agents would not be on congresses side.

[Tomcat0403]

There is also a Body Armor Ban in the house now too.  Type III and above.

You're right, there's no chance this will pass with a republican congress but I disagree about its prospects with a Dem majority.  It appears that Dems are betting they'll gain political points with their base for the 2016 election, by looking like they're trying to curb gun violence, while the GOP stonewalls.  They may try to use it to argue for a congressional sweep, believing their proposal to be "common sense."  I say let it go to the floor and for the chips to fall where they may.  There's a lot that can be said and done to show exactly how this DOES move us towards emaciating the 2A, creation of a gun registry and ultimate confiscation, and I can't imagine that being fruitful to the Dems in any way except for the most left of fringes.

 

Still, worth writing your reps and keeping up with the NRA's strategy and timing.
