re: #561 rain of lead
It has been discussed here a little bit. My limited understanding is that the 1958 law (on knives) has been interpreted in various ways that have led to certain definitions on which knives are controlled… and now the DOJ wants to extend some of those.
Those people here with more interest in the subject no doubt will jump in with more detail… but I do know that there are groups dedicated to “knife” rights.
