Frequently Asked Questions

What firearms does the 2019 Assault Weapon Ban target?

The 2019 Assault Weapon Ban specifically targets standard AR-15 style rifles, AR pistols, firearms equipped with pistol stabilizing braces, and those featuring Thordsen stocks. It also includes provisions that could classify certain pistols over 50 ounces with specific features as assault weapons.

What are the magazine capacity restrictions in the proposed 2019 ban?

The proposed 2019 Assault Weapon Ban includes a key provision that bans the sale, importation, or manufacture of any new magazines or ammunition feeding devices capable of holding more than 10 rounds. Existing magazines over this capacity may be grandfathered in, but new ones are prohibited.

How does the ban address compliance parts like Thordsen stocks?

The updated legislation explicitly names and aims to ban compliance parts, such as Thordsen stocks and products from Cross Armory. These parts are often used to make firearms compliant with existing 'assault weapon' definitions by altering grip styles or stock configurations, and the ban seeks to close these perceived loopholes.

What are the new safe storage requirements mentioned?

The 2019 Assault Weapon Ban introduces new safe storage regulations. Firearms classified under the ban must be rendered inoperable, typically by using a trigger lock or similar device, or they must be stored securely in a gun safe.
