HB 1240 "Assault Weapons Ban" Passes House

[silverdalesauer]

Very curious as to how others interpret the language for semiauto pistols portion of the bill.

A semiautomatic pistol that has the capacity to accept a
detachable magazine and has one or more of the following:

33 (C) A shroud that encircles either all or part of the barrel
34 designed to shield the bearer's hand from heat,

Sooo is the slide on any semi auto pistol going to be considered a shroud and not able to be purchased?

Technically not what I believe the wording to intend but I can imagine it being used in that fashion.

I actually believe that is their intention is to make it vague like that and later tell everyone that’s what we meant are slides as well and go after those

Yeah I was gonna copy and paste more of the bill too but I'm supposed to be working. And I don't want Bearpaw to have to buy more server space.

This really puts me in limbo. I need to chop and thread my Tikka barrel for my suppressor. But if it goes from ATF jail to Washington State jail and I'm left with a 16.5" barrel on a 6.5 creed idk how it's gonna perform.

I dont think this ban would impact you at all being that your tikka is not an “assault weapon” or whatever they say… its a bolt gun

I also dont see anything in regard to suppressor legality in any of these bills, but admittedly havent read them all.

Also, your tikka will perform exactly the same or very close to it at 16.5 inches with and without the suppressor. Its the same gun just quieter with the can. Regardless if it has a suppressor or not, it would still be a 16.5 inch 6.5 creed…

Yeah everytime I read it I come out with the opposite interpretation. The way they do it outline format but don't really tier/tab out the sections like it would look on Word throws me off from following it. I think you're right though. If I break it out...

(2)(a) "Assault weapon" means:

(iv) A semiautomatic, center fire rifle that has the capacity to accept a detachable magazine and has one or more of the following:

(E) Flash suppressor, flash guard, flash eliminator, flash hider, sound suppressor, silencer, or any item designed to reduce the visual or audio signature of the firearm;

I got a similar answer on the slide about the barrel. Guy said it would just be a boom cannon. I should get the other end threaded and get a coupler made

Plus im going to say all the suppressors in jail will come out as i have a few in there too and dont want them to be lost. 😆

So, I am not losing my mind.

How do they hope to regulate/enforce parts sales from private parties? With all the Reddit/Facebook groups there are tons of parts changing hands daily. Sad to think that this may be the only option going forward for a buffer tube, magpul stock, or Rearden brake.

You know that this law will not make her job any easier right?

Everything Dimsley and Furgeson does makes her job harder. I was just pointing out she would be exempt from the proposed law.

I think that law enforcement should not be exempt.

Well, I don't own an assault rifle so none of this applies to me.

Christ almighty. This is like saying “I never put in for spring bear so it doesn’t matter to me.”

I think he means, all his “assault” weapons were lost in a tragic boating accident. The same as mine were. Therefore do not have any, anymore.
