US Senator
Dianne
Feinstein, the infamous member of Congress whose unrelenting
crusade against the Second Amendment and firearms, sponsoring the
Federal assault weapon and magazine ban between 1994 and 2004 (and
still has a seat in Congress) is now asking President Obama to have
the
BATFE
to reinterpret a provision of the
Gun
Control Act of 1968 to prohibit the importation of various
semi-auto firearms and their parts.
Daily
Caller reported that “at a minimum” Feinstein wants
the BATFE to:
prohibit
importation of all semiautomatic rifles that can accept, or be
readily converted to accept, a large capacity ammunition magazine of
more than 10 rounds . . . . prohibit semiautomatic rifles with fixed
magazines with a capacity of more than 10 rounds, prohibit the
importation of the frame or receiver of any prohibited rifle . . . .
prohibit the practice of importing assault rifles in parts …prohibit
the use of a "thumbhole" stock . . . . and prohibit the
importation of assault pistols.
