We recently had a mass shooting in downtown Seattle by rival gang members who had 60+ arrests between them. One had 3 felonies last year alone. They were finally arrested in Las Vegas. Police found a receipt for an extended clip in their vehicle. Police later found security video from a gun shop showing them buying the clip. There is no background check for a clip! None.

Personally, I would like to see the limit set at three bullets. If you can't shoot your deer, duck, or whatever with 3 bullets you are a lousy shot. As VP Biden so eloquently puts it (video at link):

Joe Biden, btw, was really the originator of the 1994 assault weapon ban. Dianne Feinstein (D,CA) tends to get the credit, but it was Biden's brain child.

Why would anyone need 100 clips in a weapon? The clips should be banned, and any weapon that takes 100 clips should be banned also.
Where to start.....

Clips? What's a clip?

A magazine holds the ammo. Why should there be a background check to buy a magazine? It is not a firearm.

Curious. How many people were killed in this mass shooting in Seattle that you reference?

What i want to know is, will i need a special permit to carry a duffle bag full of 3 round mags ? It only takes milliseconds to swap them. Or will there be any restrictions on me carrying two 7 round revolvers ? Will i need a special permit for them ?

Eight people total were shot, but only one was killed. Thankfully the thugs did not have AR-15s, or I'm sure the death toll would have been higher.

So far no one has responded to Biden's message:

No weapon on this planet has 100 magazines attached. I personally own several thousand magazines but only one can be used at a time. Magazine capacity has no bearing. I hit what I aim at, from 3 yards out to a thousand yards. And I want high capacity magazines therefore I need them. Neither you nor anyone else will dictate what I can and can’t own.

You can have bullet control, too bad for you I cast my own bullets, and I reload my own rounds.

Gun control, bullet control, magazine control, good luck with that.

Big T needs to go trolling on AR 15.com. Honestly, nobody could keep being so willfully ignorant despite hundred of gigs of information having been poured over them correcting his ....colorful...narratives.

Truly nobody could remain so blatantly ignorant on a subject unless they're doing it on purpose. Anyone with an IQ over that of a frozen calzone anyway. I think Big Ts IQ is at least two full grades better than that.

Absolutely ! Could only imagine if they had AR20's with high capacity tracer rounds in 55 gallon drum style rotary repeater clips...it would be like the Terminator was there.

What was the death count in Nice from a box truck?
