A new federal gun control bill, HR 4953, was introduced on August 6th, 2021, by Democrats. This bill proposes to amend the Internal Revenue Code to subject semi-automatic rifles with detachable magazines to the National Firearms Act, effectively targeting most semi-automatic rifles. The introduction of this bill is seen as a political maneuver for election campaigning, aiming to demonstrate a tough stance on crime and generate votes, rather than a serious legislative effort, given its limited co-sponsorship and the stalled status of previous bills like HR 8 and HR 1446.
