As I understand it, the 1989 ban (signed by sell-out George the First) outlawed the importation of certain scary looking rifles and carbines in the wake of Patrick Purdey's rampage. However, an identical rifle built in the US would be legal. Correct?
Now then, someone told me that you could not take such a weapon that had been imported and modify it with a folding stock, detachable magazine, or other features, even though these features would be legal on a gun built here in the US
Can someone give me a detailed run down on just what the 89 import ban did? Also, how, if at all, could we get this thing repealed?
