Frequently Asked Questions

What new terminology are Democrats using for gun control?

Democrats are increasingly using the term 'concealable assault style firearms' to describe certain types of weapons, a shift from previous language like 'assault weapons' or 'weapons of war.' This new phrasing aims to create confusion and broaden the scope of potential regulations.

Why are Democrats pushing for executive orders on gun control?

With legislative efforts stalled in Congress, House Democrats are reportedly urging President Biden to use executive orders to enact gun control measures. This approach bypasses the need for congressional approval, though executive actions are often seen as weaker than legislation.

What is the National Firearms Act (NFA) and how might it apply to these firearms?

The National Firearms Act (NFA) regulates certain types of firearms, including short-barreled rifles and shotguns. Some lawmakers are proposing that any firearm capable of firing rifle rounds, even if concealable, should be regulated under the NFA, consistent with its historical intent.

What is the significance of the Ruger AR-556 pistol in this discussion?

The Ruger AR-556 pistol, described as a smaller version of an AR-15 style rifle, was legally purchased by the alleged gunman in the Boulder shooting. This detail highlights the legal acquisition of such firearms and complicates legislative efforts to ban them.
