OK, so I went and read what was pushed out yesterday. Apparently I was in error about the no grandfathering. The bill they are sending to the House Floor actuaion does have grandfathering for the possession, transfer, and sale. This is a bit concerning since that has a much higher chance of passing based on compromise.
Interestingly, here is what it bans:
-Semi-auto rifles/shotguns/pistols in a manner comparable to AWB 94 (i.e. threaded barrel, pistol grip, telescoping stock
->10 round mags
-> bumpfire stocks, and other accelration devices. Unclear if that applies to the binary crowd or not, language isn't clear.
Interestingly the language says Import, Sell, Manufacture, or Transfer - but doesn't say "possess", so not clear what happens if you aend up owning a post 2022 semi-auto that someone else made.
This one is worth watching, as this is the route they used to pass the '94 ban - after Paul Purdy shot up a Stockton CA school yard with an AK; and then Going Postal was a monthly thing at the post offices. With the Senate, I would say it's only imporbable this will pass in its current form. Improbable is higher odds than I care for - I was hoping they overshot.
