The NRA draws the line in many places, especially with anything that stinks of military hardware.
The latter turns out not to be the case. Yep, they allowed it for full auto weapons, and AP ammo, but for the first time ever refused to sign off on any and all "assault weapons" bills when that mess started in the late '80s.
Otherwise, yeah, the "compromise" a lot, so much that I'm not a current member and have an alert set for 10 years having passed since they last tried to sell us out. Still has a few years left.
- douche 11y agoThe "assault weapon" label is complete horse-manure. With $100 of aftermarket components and a half hour, you can take a stock Ruger 10-22 and make it "scary" enough to qualify as an assault weapon, then break it down and reassemble it in it's perfectly innocuous hunting configuration.
