When the legislature was last in session, 11/16/2016, HR1349 Gun Violence CDC study was adopted. Copies of the resolution will be sent to several Federal politicians.



Since that time, HB6615 Handgun Ammo Serialize, has been scheduled for another hearing, this afternoon. Please file witness slips opposing it if you haven't already.


More critically, House Floor Amendment 8 was filed on HB1016 Gun Dealer Licensing and the bill was added to the calendar at 2nd reading. Because this bill could move at a moment's notice it's important to express your opposition directly to your House Representative, by phone or email, and file witness slips in opposition to HFA8.





Both House and Senate are scheduled for 12:00 Noon today.

Sounds like the ammendment limits suppressors to indoor ranges...?

A number of these questions came up in the earlier legislative sessions. I believe consensus was that we shouldnt pick it too much apart publicly and let TV do his magic. And even if that is the case, its a start.

This. Todd basically said not to worry about it.

 

Also, as written, it doesn't specify indoor or outdoor... just that it be on the premises of a range.
