Guys, it's gonna be a bit harder to pass an Assault Weapon Ban now because, unlike the last ban, they're staring down the barrel of DC v. Heller. Using their standard practice of 'Stare-Decisis' they'll(SCOTUS) see that these are precisely the weapons the 2nd.Amendment protects.
U.S. v. Miller will bite them square in the rump. Anybody who doubts this, read the majority opinion by Chief Justice MacRenyolds.

Maybe, I know in CA and MA it is specifically named as a pistol grip, just gotta wait and see. I can't comprehend how this will end up going through in CT, but emotion trumps common sense all too often. I looked for 10 rd mags last week, because I'm certain that is coming. They may settle for the bullet button, but who knows?

In other words instead of taking away rights we're giving out more. It's not perfect but it's for sure not kalifornica, Chicago, Bloomberg NY, DC, or it seems possibly CT.....??.

Wouldn't seem like it to me. Doesn't really fit what they think they're after - the "hold it at waist level and spray" kind of scenario.
I guess you never know though. Feinstein would take them all, I believe.

Gonna have to change my tune on this one...
According to Feinstein's proposed legislation, thumbhole stocks are indeed considered pistol grips

Likely a Tax on ammo, not sure. When Obama "passed the buck" to Joe Biden, I knew we were safe!
