Re: Heads Up! HR 6257
Lever action and side action also? WTF!? You just eliminated every single brush gun out there. Bye bye to every 30-30. I know there is more but this one is stupid. This is the type rifle that helped shape this country as we expanded west ward.
They are talking about this type of gun.  and this  http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/...zAtaF7:e27863: Talk about a gun grab. I thought they stopped making the 94 a few years ago. Quote:

Re: Heads Up! HR 6257
Morons. It just drives me nuts that people in this country want to punish 99% of us because 1% can't handle a gun responsibly.

Re: Heads Up! HR 6257
Kind of a waste of a time. Only hunters and collectors might use those guns.

Re: Heads Up! HR 6257
It's a good job they are targetting these modern lever action weapons! God knows what would happen if somebody got hold of a 1871 Martini Henry.
On another note, I'm gutted about having to clear out some of the weapons from our armoury due to not having certificates for them, we had to get rid of a Thompson, I nearly cried.

 It isn't that they can't handle a gun responsibly. It is these people want to take control from you and me and put it into the elite in DC. Guns are not the issue, control is. Why do you think they call it "gun control"?

BTW - the model 94 has been discontinued for a couple years now. I have no idea why it's named here.

Re: Heads Up! HR 6257
I can't understand how politicians are the ones who decide which weapons are ok and which are not, they know sod all about firearms which is proved by the stupid laws they are trying to come out with.

Re: Heads Up! HR 6257
None of that stops people from supporting laws about weapons they know nothing about. They see a semi automatic rifle in a scary shape like an AK or an AR and it MUST BE BANNED! Why? Because it's scary.
