From the Definitions section of the bill:
Two definitions of "semiautomatic assault weapon":
Two definitions of "semiautomatic assault weapon":
A semiautomatic rifle that has a fixed ammunition feeding device with the capacity to accept more than 15 rounds, except for an attached tubular device designed to accept, and capable of operating only with, .22 caliber rimfire ammunition.
A semiautomatic pistol with a fixed ammunition feeding device that has the capacity to accept more than 15 rounds.
A semiautomatic pistol with a fixed ammunition feeding device that has the capacity to accept more than 15 rounds.
The term ‘large capacity ammunition feeding device’—
“(A) means a magazine, belt, drum, feed strip, or similar device, including any such device joined or coupled with another in any manner, that has an overall capacity of, or that can be readily restored, changed, or converted to accept, more than 15 rounds of ammunition; and
“(B) does not include an attached tubular device designed to accept, and capable of operating only with, .22 caliber rimfire ammunition.”.
It's a small positive, but it shows the value of mitigation (I am convinced SOMETHING was going to pass eventually) in that it does go far to preserving most "standard-capacity" pistol-caliber magazines, as I discussed in TDF 49. And those extra five rounds over the usual limit might mean the difference between more dead BLM thugs and an impregnated-by-rape wife, sister, or daughter.
And now, contact your pro-gun Senators to urge further expansion of this gain, at least for pistol magazines.
See TDF 228 for more on the issue of rifles and the magazine limits.
