H.R. 4953: To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to subject to the requirements of the National Firearms Act any semiautomatic rifle that has the capacity to accept a detachable magazine.
Introduced with almost no fanfare on 6 Aug.
To those unfamiliar with firearms regs, what this will do is force any semi-auto pistol, rifle or shotgun with a magazine that detaches, to be registered with the ATF, a $200 tax stamp paid for each one, an extensive background check and the right of the ATF to enter your property at any time, for the purpose of "inspection".
The same hoops you have to jump through to acquire an automatic weapon.
