Article says ban of assault (cough, cough) rifles and pistols, as well as ban on magazines holding over 15 rounds, doesn’t take effect until 1 Jul. Wonder what gun purchase percentage in Virginia will be next couple of months? I am very sad to see yet another state fall to the “guns kill people” frenzy, furthering the dictatorship models of socialism/communism, recent tax increases in Virginia indicating the latter.

“Firearms and magazines purchased or brought into Virginia prior to July 1 are not subject to the new legislation.”

Spanberger inks bill banning assault weapons and high-capacity magazines

Spanberger signed a series of bills aimed at curbing gun violence, a move that follows her gun control blitz just days before.

I remember when Virginia was a free state

And ABSOLUTELY believed in “shall not be infringed” at one point in its history!

The old adage “those who forget history are destined to repeat it” is slowly working it’s way to the original colonies being led by wannabe kings and queens who, while not coronated, their elections are quite suspect when they espouse moderation to get elected then jump full speed into far left liberalism/socialism/communism once they fool their constituents and assume office.

This guy is most likely rolling over in his grave…

“George Washington was born on February 22, 1732, in Westmoreland County, Virginia, at Popes Creek Plantation (also known as Wakefield). He was born in the Colony of Virginia to Augustine and Mary Ball Washington, and later became a prominent surveyor, planter, and soldier in the region before leading the Continental Army.”

And there’s no fixing it.

Oh, and in case you missed it, there’s this too (notice there is an “or” between the two definitions, not an “and”…

“Virginia defines assault weapons as semiautomatic center-fire rifles or pistols that are equipped with a magazine that holds more than 20 rounds or are designed by the manufacturer to accommodate a silencer or equipped with a folding stock.”

So does that mean my lever rifle is an “assault” lever rifle? Or my FN Reflex MRD and CZ Shadow 2 carry with threaded barrels are now “assault” pistols? The lunacy of these people get more scary every.single.day.

Ideally some well financed, enterprising Virginian will have this all before the Supreme Court in short order….or any other judicial level that can put a screeching halt to it!

That was June 25, 1788, a long time ago!

It is almost as bad as the one we , here in Illinois , got forced on us.

Hi,

Disappointing to say the least.

Meanwhile in California...

Eric Swalwell Resigns from Congress

The allegations, which Swalwell denies, also ended his bid to become California Governor. Swalwell had been a Democratic frontrunner.
