Minnesota Lawmakers Ponder Rimfire Tube Mag Restrictions Under “Assault Weapons” Ban

[Talyn]

Those Marlin Model 60's, Browning SA-22, etc. are evil.

The classic .22LR rifle with a long tube magazine is a standard feature in rural American households. Millions of farm boys started their shooting careers with a Marlin Model 60 or similar rifle that would take almost half a box of rimfire shells… but in Minnesota, some lawmakers are considering rimfire tube mag restrictions that would see those rifles banned as “assault weapons.”

Minnesota Lawmakers Ponder Rimfire Tube Mag Restrictions Under "Assault Weapons" Ban -

Minnesota lawmakers say rimfire tube mag restrictions, along with a ban on revolving shotgun sales and pistol gripped rifles, will make the state safer.

Further proof that any democrat who says "we are not coming for your guns" is a pathological liar.

Duh! Demorats think every firearm is an assault weapon!!
Next it's silverware, too many prongs on a fork, assault fork! Let alone a butter knife. At some point we'll need to get physical. The game is afoot and we're playing catch-up.

This is what "common sense" gun control measures look like. The problem is who is determining what common sense is and why I don't support any new gun control measures.

Absolutely!!

Not too mention there's plenty of gun laws on the books they refuse to uphold now. They freely let loose felon's with multiple gun crimes as it is

When they disarm you, they OWN you. it has been proven many times in history. The communist Democrat party wants to OWN us.

I think the bigger issue is the average idiot lib thinks all firearms are bad, and soon the assault flintlock will be deemed evil.

OH who cares? I don't mean we shouldn't know and fight it, but really, I'm not going to get all worked up. I'm not playing their game anymore.

 

[Belt Fed]

OH who cares?

You should as a gun owner.

First they came for the Communists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Communist
Then they came for the Socialists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Socialist
Then they came for the trade unionists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a trade unionist
Then they came for the Jews
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Jew
Then they came for me
And there was no one left
To speak out for me

Still goes today
First they go for the firearms....

Did you read the entire post or just want to find fault for your own amusement?

With all that is wrong with Illinois gun ban , at least they left the tube fed .22 s alone. Well so far anyway.

Nobody owns me! I told the military the same thing. After 23 years they were shocked to hear that from me. But it is true, once they disarm you, your in big trouble

Not really, Older tube fed 22's take more than 15 if you use 22 shorts. Sneaky underhanded leftist douchebag DA could say you have an illegal assault rifle.

They were specifically exempted in the law as legal. No limit on rounds .

I may have to go shopping sooner than later...

Depends on interpretation, as I said all it takes is on DA that is more south end of north bound mule than human capable of abstract thought. Yes tube fed are exempt, but we still have a capacity issue that could bite you. Ten rounds for rifle and 15 for pistol. I don't trust Illinois knotzees, they allow a 10/22 but if it has a pistol grip or 30 round mag it's classified as an "assault rifle" yea I'm going to storm the beaches with a 22LR.
