Ny ATF rapport: AR-15 & AK-style rifles are "modern sporting rifles"

Indlæg af Kalthoff » 8. feb 2017, 10:02

Bureau of Alcoho, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives har skrevet en rapport med titlen "Options to Reduce or Modify Firearms Regulations"

Der er mange guldkorn som er relevante for den danske våbendebat.

Side 5:
6. Reissue a New Sporting Purpose Study:

Since the sunset of the Assault Weapons ban in 2004, the use of AR-15s, AK-style, and similar rifles now commonly referred to as “modern sporting rifles” has increased exponentially in sport shooting.

These firearm types are now standard for hunting activities.

ATF could re-examine its almost 20-year-old study to bring it up to date with the sport shooting landscape of today, which is vastly different than what it was years ago.

Action shooting sports and organizations such as 3 Gun and the United States Practical Shooting Association (USPSA) have also drastically expanded in recent years.
Side 4:
3. Re-importation of Certain Department of Defense Surplus Firearms from Foreign Countries:

There are surplus rifles, pistols, ammunition, and other importable U.S. origin Curio and Relic
(C&R) defense articles (including M1 Garand and Carbine rifles) and pistols (M1911) overseas awaiting importation authority.

There is no clear public safety reason why taxpayer-funded US-origin C&R defense articles should be denied re-importation to the American public, while many non-U.S.- origin C&R items are approved.

Additionally, these items do not represent any discernable public safety concern, as demand lies with
collectors of vintage military firearms.

Interessant nok, så har Forgotten Weapons lige bragt et afsnit om hvordan de første AR-15 nu er gamle nok til at falde ind under C&R

Så mangler vi bare at EU følger med i det forandrende landskab. Jeg har en Arsenal AK der er træt af at være outsider.
Please help me represent gun owners/shooters as 99% of us ARE: just regular folks who enjoy guns instead of golf.
