This video from Washington Gun Law TV, featuring President William Kirk, details Rhode Island's proposed House Bill 5436, an assault weapon ban. The bill defines various semi-automatic firearms, including rifles, shotguns, and pistols, as "assault weapons" based on features and magazine capacity. It bans possession, manufacture, sale, and transfer of these items after July 1, 2026, with a mandatory registration and permit-to-possess requirement for existing owners. The speaker emphasizes the Supreme Court's unwillingness to review such bans as emboldening states like Rhode Island to pursue civilian disarmament measures.
