If the "Assault Weapon" ban sunsets, will "new" hi capacity magazines be legalized again?

    According to this article...

    http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1056840/posts

    ...both the AWB and Hi-Cap will expire on Sept. 14.

    This second-hand according to Senator John Ensign, the "good" senator from Nevada. I don't understand why Nevadans continue to elect Democrat Harry Reid to the U.S. Senate. Also, I have seen a lot of Kerry bumper stickers since I moved here last month. I left Kalifornia to escape these damn Libs. If these a-holes want to live under socialist rule they should stay in Kalifornia!

    I am looking forward to retrofitting my guns on the eve of the sunset. I'm not worried about JBT's saying it's "OK" for me to do so. If it isn't renewed, then my stuff will be changed over.

    Remember how many seats were lost after AWB passage? Vae victis!
    Those who would offer any interpretation that would relegate Amendment II to "relic" status of a bygone era are blatantly stating that the remainder of the Bill of Rights isn't worth a damn, either.

    Gunphreak!!! Welcome back! I have not seen you in a long time. Looks like the rest of the "old" group is coming back. All we have to do now is get Ronnie Perkins back.[V]

    Does anybody know about his status after the Gestapo got him?[?]

    Unless you fellas are just giving lip service you had better drop an email or phone call to your congressman. HR 3831, AWB, is still in committee where it should die. If your congressman is on the Committee for Homeland Security you should contact him/her now as there are only a few legislative days remaining for this to be acted upon.Let your representative know where you stand. If you are from the 20th District of New York contact U.S. Rep.John Sweeney at www.house.gov/sweeney/. Rep. Sweeney is a friend to gun owners and deserves our support.

    Adrionduck,
    I frequently contact my reps about gun rights. I even have a couple of replies. I hope the ban expires.

    I don't currently own an assault weapon, but I sure am happy that damn ban has expired.

    All you have to do is renounce your Kalifornia citizenship and move to America!

    You see Kalifornia outlawed more than Klinton. Now add .50 caliber firearms to the banned list.

    If you're gonna stay there just deliver you guns to the nearest police station for destruction. You won't need guns in the Kalifornia concentration camp where they plan to send Conservatives and gun owners. Just so you know, the camps are to be guarded by illegal aliens who will be given special Kalifornia citzenship and voting rights. Watch out at the selection lines. It they send you to the Left, it's a killer.

    The Bolsheviks in Kalifornia don't know about the Bill of Rights. When laws violate rights, you break them in the spirit of Martin Luther King, Rosa Parks and all the founders of this country. Most every gun law made violates the Second Amendment. Just because the dopes in Black Robes won't protect American's rights does not make them right. Gun rights are to protect Americans from scum that take rights away.

    Instead of knocking down statues in Iraq we should have knocked a few down In Sacramento and Washington DC.
