The assault weapons ban is a copmlete misnomer. No assault weapons are banned by that bill. Assault weapons have been illegal to the general public since the Gun Control Act of 1969. The assault weapons ban made magazines over a certain capacity illegal, as well as pistol grips on a rifle, flash suppressors and bayonet lugs (because of all those damn drive by bayonettings in the inner city). This law was worthless and it did nothing to reduce crime; it was nothing more then a publicity stunt.
