That's a fairly nice list of pro-gun bills. Where's the other shoe, and when will it drop?

 

HB4397 doesn't appear to be pro-gun, as it removes most state preemption for handguns and "assault weapons"
While initially removing, isnt it then adding back in giving state total preemption and making null and void anything local municipalities did?
