Frequently Asked Questions

What is Virginia Senate Bill 749?

Virginia Senate Bill 749 proposes a ban on the sale and possession of 'assault weapons,' specifically targeting AR-15 style rifles and magazines with a capacity exceeding 10 rounds, based on cosmetic features rather than function.

How does SB 749 redefine 'assault weapons'?

SB 749 defines 'assault weapons' based on cosmetic physical features, meaning firearms with identical mechanical functions could be deemed illegal solely due to their appearance, not their operational capabilities.

What is the concern about 'grandfather clauses' in SB 749?

The removal of 'grandfather clauses' means individuals who legally purchased firearms or magazines before the bill's enactment could be considered criminals overnight if they do not surrender their property, leading to retroactive criminalization.

What is the alleged impact of SB 749 on crime?

Critics argue SB 749 will have no impact on criminal behavior, as criminals disregard such limits. Instead, it is predicted to create 'new criminals' out of law-abiding citizens who are trying to comply with the law.
