Looks like House Republicans are down another vote.

      I don’t know the exact details of the weapon he used, but there are aftermarket detachable magazine mods for the SKS that are fairly common (though I’ve often heard they’re pretty unreliable) that would make them qualify as an assault weapon under many assault weapon laws.

          I was never a big “gun guy”, so my limited exposure was during the gun shows of the 90s. They’d always have AKs and SKSs (I believe they were Chinese manufactured) on display/sale. Extended family members bought a few just before Michigan’s (now expired) ban went into effect. As a kid, they all looked about the same to me (fired the same ammo, interchangeable clips, etc).

          So I learned something new today and I appreciate your response.
