illinois senate president to introduce bill banning ALL modern firearms
all. no grandfathering. all. turn them in. i know this won't pass, but it gives insight as to what they really want in the long run. nationally, an assault weapons ban will be first, in 10 years, this.

“The ISRA has learned from a credible source that Illinois Senate President John Cullerton [above] will introduce a so called ‘assault weapons’ ban on Wednesday when the legislature returns for its ‘lame duck’ session. Cullerton hopes to ramrod the bill through and get it to Governor Quinn for signature by Friday. If he is successful at doing so, nearly every gun you currently own will be banned and will be subject to confiscation by the Illinois State Police . . .
“Based on what we know about Cullerton’s bill, firearms that would be banned include all semiautomatic rifles, pistols, and shotguns. Pump action shotguns would be banned as well. This would be a very comprehensive ban that would include not only so-called ‘assault weapons’ but also such classics as M1 Garands and 1911-based pistols. There would be no exemptions and no grandfathering. You would have a very short window to turn in your guns to the State Police to avoid prosecution.”
TTAG’s sources tell us there will be two bills: one for semi-automatic rifles, lever guns, shotguns and handguns with certain features (e.g., threaded barrels); and one for ammunition magazine capacity.
Mags would be limited to 10 rounds and owners of existing magazines holding more than 10 rounds would have to register them with the state police.
One [non-ISRA] gun guy on the front lines in the Land of Lincoln tells TTAG that the odds of the bills going through are 50 – 50. He advises gun owners both in and out of state to call Senate President Cullerton at 217 782 2000 and/or find another legislator to pester at ilga.gov.
“If gun owners around the country melt the phone lines in the next three days we can push this thing back . . . that would be a tremendous morale boost ahead of federal legislation.”

I posted previously that one of the goals of the gungrabbers is a magazine registry - and there it is for all to see.
Re: illinois senate president to introduce bill banning ALL modern firearms
why let you keep a magazine that holds 10 rounds or less when you can't keep the firearm it is compatible with? you're supposed to throw a loaded mag at a burgler or something?

Sorry, I can offer no explanation for irrational behavior.
And who said anything about allowing anyone other than state actors to have ammo?? ???

I'm with Ponce,
If the Drug War or Prohibition are any example, it will create a market for even more dangerous weapons becoming available. It will be interesting to see what strategic type small nuclear devices become available on the black market.:rolleyes:

This is just fricken sad. My guess is that this will push people over the edge, I just hope if they decide to be "actionary" that they address the people that are promoting this type of agenda.
