Gist of it is, gun council formed from police and firearm specialists (just hope there is some decent reps on that) makes the rules. Any feature of any firearm can be deemed mssa, for example the colour black. Any part can be deemed a pistol grip and any make and model can be deemed a mssa, for example a mini 14 or 10/22.

Id say those long range rigs in a tactical chassis will be in trouble too, pretty much we are all going to need our e cats.

Everyone is worried that it is going to affect all the a cat ar's around, I would say that is barely the half of it.
Maybe time to wake up bolt rifle boys, your next on the list for a ten seven fist

Bolt actions won't be affected by the new act, I suggest you read it before scaremongering.
