perttime Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 This might or might not be news in USA. The EU Commission has submitted to the European Parliament a proposal for a revised Firearms directive. This article sums it pretty well, so far: https://www.all4shooters.com/en/Shooting/law/Firearms-United-EU-Gun-Ban-ongoing/ The list to define rifles that they want to ban might look familiar: 1) Semiautomatic firearms converted from full auto firearms 2) Semiautomatic firearms with 2 or more characteristics from the list:a) folding stock pistol gripc) 2 or more Picatinny railsd) option to mount Bayonett;e) firearms shorter than 830 mm;3. Firearms with barrel shorter than 450 mm;4. Semiautomatic firearms using the same ammunition as used by military forces if they have one or more from point (2), namely 5.45 mm x 36; 7.62 mm x 39; 7.62 mm x 54; .223 Remington; .308 Winchester; .30-06 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
