H. R. 4269
Effectively ends the private sell of semi automatic handguns, rifles, and shotguns. Nearly every single gun manufactured meets the definition of "assault weapon" in this bill. This is a clear violation of the second amendment designed to make it increasingly difficult to obtain firearms for law abiding citizens.
“(t) (1) Beginning on the date that is 90 days after the date of enactment of the Assault Weapons Ban of 2015, it shall be unlawful for any person who is not licensed under this chapter to transfer a grandfathered semiautomatic assault weapon to any other person who is not licensed under this chapter, unless a licensed importer, licensed manufacturer, or licensed dealer has first taken custody of the grandfathered semiautomatic assault weapon for the purpose of complying with subsection (s). Upon taking custody of the grandfathered semiautomatic assault weapon, the licensee shall comply with all requirements of this chapter as if the licensee were transferring the grandfathered semiautomatic assault weapon from the licensee’s inventory to the unlicensed transferee, except that in applying paragraph (1)(B)(ii) of such subsection, ‘14’ shall be substituted for ‘3’.
“(2) Paragraph (1) shall not apply to a temporary transfer of possession for the purpose of participating in target shooting in a licensed target facility or established range if—
“(A) the grandfathered semiautomatic assault weapon is, at all times, kept within the premises of the target facility or range; and
“(B) the transferee is not known to be prohibited from possessing or receiving a grandfathered semiautomatic assault weapon.
“(3) For purposes of this subsection, the term ‘transfer’—
“(A) shall include a sale, gift, or loan; and
“(B) does not include temporary custody of the grandfathered semiautomatic assault weapon for purposes of examination or evaluation by a prospective transferee.

RE: H. R. 4269
Forgot to include the description of the bill...
To regulate assault weapons, to ensure that the right to keep and bear arms is not unlimited, and for other purposes.

Every American will be allowed to keep a muzzle loading musket, since those were the only weapons available when the Founders wrote the 2nd Amendment.
Just keep a few loaded and close at hand, if you have a home invasion.

RE: H. R. 4269
Got two shotguns and a rifle, don't want or need an AR15.
And if I ever do, I can still buy one.
