Yes.......... That sort of true nonsense.
I HATE trying to apply logic and reason to these things.
I HATE EVEN MORE trying to decipher these legal issues thru a poorly written news article.
That said.............. maybe they are going to "grand father" this like the magazines.................. "..anyone who possessed the weapons before a ban went into effect could keep them....."
Which of course is funny because in this same article, they point out the failure of the magazine law to stop their sales.
