``(I) All of the following pistols, copies, duplicates, variants, or altered facsimiles with the capability of any such weapon thereof:
"All AK-47 types" is a language to protect the legislation as well as the people from the manipulative capacity of the gun industry. Bayonets will still be legal, but, the guns they accompany will not.
The thing is this about bayonets; they are attachments to assault weapons, no different than silencers. There are several attachments I have yet to notice in the definitions so perhaps it is best I mention them here.
Bayonet mount
Senator Feinstein didn't wake up one day and decide she didn't like things such as grenades and all that mess, they are usually affiliated in some way with assault weapons. So, the mention of them in this legislation is related to the fact it is a defining characteristic. So, in the case of bayonets, where they attach to an assault weapon / military style weapon they are outlawed. Now, can they be sold as a curiosity or an antique? Yes, however, there are state laws about what kind of knives a person can carry 'on the street' or 'on their person' to limit the length of those blades.
This is an example of North Carolina case law and gun control advocates are going to laugh at this one. North Carolina restricts the length of the blade a person can carry. Now, there is nothing stating a citizen can't own a lenghtier blade and display them or have them at home, but, they can't carry them. Semi-automatic guns, no problem. Blades, problem.
"Knife about 4-1/2 inches (click here) in overall length which, when folded, was clearly designed for carrying in a pocket or purse, was an 'ordinary pocketknife' as defined by this section." (1989)
Every state in the nation, through their justice system, will accommodate a citizen if they were acting out of ignorance. That is the case with knives in most states. So, this definition above describes the law in relation to enforcement through the justice system. Usually, first time offenders are told their responsibility in a court and may or may not pay a fine, but, as a misdemeanor it will usually not be a matter of having a record. Now, should it be that lenient? I'll let gun control advocates decide that, because, if there is a FELONY record of any type BACKGROUND CHECKS would prevent gun possession.
Let me state that again. if there is a FELONY record of any type; not misdemeanor, BACKGROUND CHECKS would prevent gun possession. Misdemeanor, no problem. Felony, problem. Might want to think about that in the state legislation as well.
Hey, I heard New Jersey is helping out New York and Connecticut to stop trafficking. Good. Proud of 'em.
Just in case anyone is interested in using a state's knife law as a hideous example of 'gun tolerance': State Knife Laws (click here). This is ridiculous. Theater goers can't be killed or wounded in large number by a person wielding a knife. If anything the dangerous person would be subdued by the crowd. So, the idea there should be more lenient rules for owning guns over knives is pure insanity.
Most of the mass murderers such as Columbine or Boston or Aurora were not prepared for close combat. That is what knives are all about. Other than paring an apple. But, soldiers, when in combat will be carrying close combat weapons. That is what bayonets are. They are close combat weapons. They were vital to the outcome of many soldiers, especially in World War I.
Grenade launcher - Below is a M7 grenade launcher with 22 mm grenade fitted on the end of an M1 Garand rifle. Get the picture? So they are illegal under this amendment.
One more thing about the issue of close combat, other than this ain't it, the mass murderers never prepared for it and shows exactly their intent in their attacks, how intimate they were with their victims in regard to survival and their very sane attacks. All of the them, across the board, used the same methodology. They ain't crazy. They were angry with poorly defined masculinity mired in a violent culture, had money and acted out as some kind of 'justice hero.' All the same. All just as stupid. They weren't crazy, they were a result of their American culture with easy availability of weapons.
Flash suppressor - can also be known as a flash guard, flash eliminator, flash hider, or flash cone. It attaches to the muzzle of a rifle that reduces its visible signature while firing by cooling or dispersing the burning gases that exit the muzzle, a phenomenon typical of carbine length weapons. Its primary intent is to reduce the chances that the shooter will be blinded in low light shooting conditions.
This is a military issue flash suppressor. It seeks to hide the soldier from the enemy, too. This was also nothing the mass murderers were interested in. They were out to kill unarmed and/or helpless people to result in them being the last man/men standing. This was not their concern. They knew they were detectable, but, in their warped 'video game' thinking they were always the victor. Reset to default. But, these attachments are on the market.
``(i) All AK-47 types, including the following:
``(I) Centurion 39 AK pistol. What a babe this is, huh? This will prove those bullies wrong. 100% American made, too. Hey, a real patriotic weapon.
Here it is as a Sporter Rifle.
``(II) Draco AK-47 pistol. I have to check, but, I think this one is Chinese made. It is fitted with a drum clip. This is a pistol. No, not made in China. The name "Draco" is dragon in Chinese. The gun is manufactured by Century. It is a cheaper choice at about $500.00 without the drum clip.
``(III) HCR AK-47 pistol. One thing a critic has to keep in mind when examining these weapons is the VERSATILITY they bring to the American street. What do we know about carbines? They are carbines BECAUSE they have a shorter gun barrel. Well, heck, look at the barrel length of this one. Think about THE OVER ALL LENGTH. Think about where they can be hidden on a person. Think about it's ability to be controlled by the gunman/woman. Think about the ease of 'spraying' the ammunition. These are DESIGNED for close range. There is no hunting anything here, except, people.
