As others have said, it's obvious how well the authors know their subject.

McCarthy was on NPR yesterday saying that they are going to start using the term "gun safety" since people don't respond well to "gun control."
Yay, newspeak.

Hey, I got a couple of them level action guns. Real tack-drivers.
Yeah, but you gotta watch out, or that little bubble'll get away from ya'.

I don't think it has any better chance of passing than 1022, but thought it mightbe of interest.

Sure. Gun safety! Thankfully, that's already been taken care of, with a spokes-mascot, too.

Here's the bill author demonstrating that she doesn't know what her own legislation really restricts:

Everyone knows that the shoulder thing is actually called a gonkulator.
Hey, don't knock that gonkulator. I got one on my level action rifle. Man, it's a tack driver.

Trouble with those level action rifles though, ya can't shoot downhill with them.
I wish we could send some of them to the Middle East. It would cut way down on all those Ay-rabs shooting into the air at weddings and funerals.

Why would you ask a question like that? Who are you planning to kill, you sicko?

Level rifles are a plumb crazy idea.
Thats a really, really, bad pun. Hahahaha!

I'll buy more if I think this piece of crap might advance.

I bought 6 30-round AR-15 magazines and 3 13-round Browning Hi Power magazines yesterday.
I'll buy more if I think this piece of crap might advance.

Likewise.
I'd personally recommend to keep checking bravocompanyusa.com's site. Their US-made contract magazines are excellent, and a 10-pack shipped for $109 really wasn't bad. Really top-notch mags, green follower, gray teflon, lots of people say they're indistinguishable from Bushmaster factory ones. I like them, myself. They work. They're also NOT LEO-marked, which might be good for people in some particularly paranoid states.
They're sold out right now, is all. Probably due to this!

C Products isn't showing out of stock as of last night. AIM is out of stock on the 9.95 ones, but they're taking backorders and claim they'll be in next week.
The AR Stoner mags from Midway are good, but are $15ish without a dealer discount (you did get your TYpe 03 FFL and send it to them, correct?).

In her defense as a lefty wingbat, most legislators have thier legislation drawn up for them by special interest groups and/or staffers. IMHO they often know little about most bills that go forth unless its very near and dear to thier heart. She's just a good lockstepper doing what her masters tell her to do.

I wonder if it has ever occured to these anti-gun politicians that all these proposed (and sometimes actual: 1994 AWB) legislation actually increase the sales of semi-autos and large capacity magazines by probably a hundredfold ...?
The surest way to make Americans want something is to tell them they can't have it.

I'd sure miss my gonkulators, but I'm sure someone could fabricate a reasonable substitute.

As an American with a Dial-up Disability I haven't seen the video, but from what y'all are saying, the bill is rife with inaccuracies. This does present a unique opportunity to defend against this type of legislation: a bill prohibiting non-existent guns and features, like fully-automatic 10 gauge shotguns, "Gonkulators", self-expanding magazines, and atomizing bullets. Items such as these can be swapped out with real items, like semiauto shotguns, as "concessions" to the banners. Once the bill contains nothing but nonsense, the final step will be to rally for a 20-year ban, with a provision quietly slipped in about no other gun bans in that time.
I'd sure miss my gonkulators, but I'm sure someone could fabricate a reasonable substitute.

Obama also took issue with the sale of semi-automatic weapons, like the one used in the Virginia shootings, calling for sensible gun control.
"I don't hunt myself, but I respect hunters and sportsman," Obama said, "But I don't know of any self-respecting hunter that needs 19 rounds of anything. You don't shoot 19 rounds at a deer, and if you do, you shouldn't be hunting."

My safe is going to look like a Mec-Gar warehouse if this rhetoric keeps going.
