Frequently Asked Questions

What is Minnesota bill HF 3570 proposing to ban?

Minnesota bill HF 3570 aims to ban the transfer of various semi-automatic firearms. This includes rifles accepting detachable magazines with features like pistol grips or barrel shrouds, pistols with similar features, and shotguns with pistol grips or high-capacity magazines. Notably, it also targets rimfire rifles with fixed magazines over 10 rounds.

How do Minnesota's HF 3570 and Virginia's new gun laws differ from previous legislation?

HF 3570 in Minnesota appears to regulate firearms with just one 'naughty feature,' unlike the 1994 Crime Bill which required two. Virginia's new laws expand bans to include possession of 'assault weapons' and restrict open carry and firearm presence in restaurants serving alcohol, indicating a broader scope than prior legislation.

Which specific firearm features are targeted by Minnesota's HF 3570?

Minnesota's HF 3570 targets several features on semi-automatic rifles and pistols, including pistol grips, thumbhole stocks, folding or collapsing stocks, protruding grips for the offhand, and barrel shrouds. For shotguns, it includes pistol grips, high-capacity fixed magazines, and the ability to accept detachable magazines.

Does Minnesota's HF 3570 include exemptions for law enforcement officers?

While HF 3570 exempts law enforcement officers during the performance of their official duties, it reportedly does not include a blanket exemption allowing them to buy and sell firearms covered by the bill personally. This is a departure from some previous gun control measures.

What action can citizens take regarding the proposed gun control bills in Minnesota and Virginia?

Citizens are encouraged to contact their state legislators to voice opposition. For Minnesota's HF 3570, contact information for committee chair Kelly Mercher is provided (651-296-1400). For Virginia's SB2, SB99, and SB57, a contact number for the House of Delegates is given (804-691-788).
