Bill > HR2959

This bill, called the Freedom from Assault Weapons Act, would remove assault weapons and large capacity ammunition feeding devices from circulation. The key provisions include: - Prohibiting the importation, manufacture, sale, transfer, and possession of semiautomatic assault weapons and large capacity ammunition feeding devices, with certain exceptions for law enforcement, the military, and licensed dealers. - Requiring the Attorney General to maintain a record of semiautomatic assault weapons used in crimes. - Establishing a buy-back program where the government will purchase semiautomatic assault weapons and large capacity magazines from non-manufacturers and government entities. - Increasing penalties for violations of the restrictions on assault weapons and large capacity magazines. - Providing for severability, so that if any part of the law is found unconstitutional, the rest of the law remains in effect.
