# Background Checks for Gun Parts?
#
# Increased Gun Parts Regulation Proposed in Senate
#
# Commentary by John Rich
#
# The following is a Bill proposed in Congress. (My personal
# comments are indented and enclosed in parentheses.) [KABA's Notes
# are in bracketts.]
#
# S. 609 IN THE SENATE OF THE UNITED STATES March 26, 2001 Mr.
# TORRICELLI (D-NJ)
#
# A BILL
#
# To close loopholes in the firearms laws which allow the
# unregulated manufacture, assembly, shipment, or transportation
# of firearms or firearm parts, and for other purposes.
#
# This Act may be cited as the `Gun Parts Trafficking Act of 2001'.
#
# PROHIBITION AGAINST SHIPMENT OR TRANSPORTATION OF FIREARM PARTS,
# WITH CERTAIN EXCEPTIONS.
#
# Changes the definition of a "firearm" to include; "any parts
# or combination of parts that when assembled on a frame or receiver
# would constitute a firearm".
#
# (In other words, spare parts, all by themselves, would be
# considered a "firearm". A new barrel to replace one that is
# shot-out, or a replacement trigger mechanism, would be regulated
# as if they were firearms. To purchase repair parts like these
# you would have to order them through a licensed gun dealer and
# incur a background check and waiting period, just as if you were
# ordering a complete ready-to-shoot firearm.)
#
# It shall be unlawful for any person other than a licensed
# manufacturer to manufacture or assemble a firearm.
#
# (You could not purchase some parts from one company, and the
# remaining parts from another company, and assemble them into
# a complete firearm. You would no longer be allowed to mix and
# match parts.)
#
# [KABA NOTE: We know how easily licenses can be revoked by having
# watch 75% of the licensed gun dealers being put out of business
# in the last eight years. And now they want to BAN you from
# building a kit gun. Why might that be?]
#
# Increases the fee for a firearm manufacturing license from $50
# to $500.
#
# (To make it more difficult for individuals to get their own
# "manufacturing" license which would permit them to assemble their
# own gun parts.)
#
# [KABA NOTE: Anyone who sees this legislation as reasonable should
# be sent to Britain permanently and forced to walk through London
# at night, alone, unarmed.]
#
# PROHIBITION AGAINST POSSESSION OR TRANSFER OF CERTAIN COMBINATIONS
# OF MACHINEGUN REPLACEMENT PARTS.
#
# A "machine gun" shall include the frame or receiver of any such
# weapon, any part or combination of parts designed and intended,
# for use in converting a weapon into a machinegun, and any
# combination of parts from which a machinegun can be assembled
# if such parts are in the possession or under the control of a
# person.
#
# (If you are in possession of an automatic fire mechanism, even
# if you don't have the remainder of the gun that it would go into,
# you would be guilty of possessing an illegal machine gun.)
#
# [KABA NOTE: As with California's illegal "assault weapons" ban,
# it is highly unlikely the non-American traitor Torricelli who
# wrote this trash could come up with a list of such parts,
# specifically, or their commonality in both full and semi-auto
# firearms. It is also unlikely that he cares that the language
# of this bill, if enacted, could get people imprisoned for
# possessing parts that "could" be used in machineguns but never
# were nor would be. He hates guns, their owners, and is working
# to create a ban on your rights. This country would be better
# off if he were tried and found guilty of the treason he has
# committed -- and punished accordingly.]
