Have any of you looked at the list of specifically excepted firearms in Feinstein’s bill? Some models are specifically listed with the notation (w/o folding stock) but most aren’t, even though folding stocks are available for them. For instance the Ruger Mini 14 is exempted without folding stock, but the Mini 30 is exempted without such a notation. So could Ruger just sell Mini 30s with folding stocks since the Mini 30 is exempted from the bill. Same deal with the 10/22, the Carbine is exempted with the no folding stock notation, but the 10/22 Target, Sporter and Compact models are all listed separately without such a notation.

The way I read it if a person were to put a folding stock on a Marlin Camp 9 or Marlin were to reintroduce that model with that name but add a folding stock it would be exempted and fine. However since the bill doesn’t mention BATFE certified Curio and Relics at all, a CMP auctioned M1A1 Carbine would be illegal.

I’m sorry, but this bill reads like an exercise in arbitrary non thoughts.
