TWK - You are correct - and a well illustrated post.

I also own Mini-14's - that rifle can be put into a stock with a handgrip and appears similar to the AR-15 - and functions the same. It is not an assault weapon. It is just the appearance of the weapon that terrifies the ignorant DPSY's - who erroneously think a ban will fix weapons issues.



Or, perhaps, they are just banning a bit at a time to achieve a defenseless population they can terrorize - as did Stalin in Russia.


Of note - automatic weapons were not banned - National Firearms Act of 1934 put a $200 tax stamp on automatic weapons. The Gun Control Act of 1968 outlawed the transfer to and possession of automatic weapons, short barrel weapons, and suppressors unless possessed and registered prior to 1968.
Transfer of these weapons to private parties is strictly reviewed by BATFE

mdooos - Thank you , sir - One might quote the post relating to the assault rifle debate - which has been discussed on this forum intensively.

You are correct about how Full auto weapons are handled by the BATFE as far as transfer.


The FA version of the popular Min-14 is the much used, reliable, AC-556.
