Subdeacon Joe Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 http://www.vpc.org/press/1301awpistol.htm WASHINGTON, DC--Not since the late 1980s and early 1990s has there been such a wide variety of assault pistols available for sale on the U.S. civilian market warns the new Violence Policy Center (VPC) study Assault Pistols: The Next Wave (http://www.vpc.org/studies/awpistols.pdf). The study contains more than 20 examples of assault pistols currently marketed in the United States, led by AK-47 and AR-15 pistols that offer assault rifle power in a compact pistol format. Each of the assault pistols detailed in the study would be banned by legislation introduced last week by Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-CA). The study notes that in addition to next-generation AK-47 and AR-15 assault pistols, assault pistols that were banned by name under the now-expired federal assault weapons ban, such as the UZI pistol, MAC, and Calico, are also being marketed.

T. H. O' Sullivan Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Before you know it, anything that shoots a projectile down range will be an assault weapon. Here's an illustration of this: Boomstick Control Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
