Subject: S.2498 Bill Text... Call Your Critters ASAP.
FYI - The bill text is a fast-tracked renewal... It does not
appear to change any definition of "aw" firearms as I had
thought. But as I said - the anti-gun crowd cannot afford to let
the AW Ban vanish as 12 months down the track - the net effect on
crime is likely to show nada - zilch - none and they are going to
look rather stupid and their funding and sponsors will evaporate
- these orgs like VPC and AGS are going to fight like its the
fight of their lives which it could well be...
