Looks like they are backtracking on a compromise

Both the assembly and senate bills are sponsored by republicans. Do these really stand a chance of passing?

I mean no way in hell. They don't want to make it easy, even for law abiding people who went through hell to get a pistol permit, to buy guns or ammo.

They want to delay, delay, delay so people just give up.

Also, the semi auto rifle license is a total abomination and needs to go. Harder to obtain the license than an NFA item, but you can't buy a Ruger 10/22 without it. Unbelievable.

Guessing that the breakdown of the ammo background check process is so complete that they want to cut back on the call volume

Hmm.  It's on the agenda for tomorrows codes meeting.
You think it will actually get a vote?  Can't be right?

The Republicans asked the committee to look at it and the Chair said No.
