This was law already? It doesn't make any sense ...

1. Class C is for "Assault rifles and other semiautomatic weapons", however by every non-Lincoln definition an Assault Rifle is fully automatic, not semiautomatic.

2. Most handguns and rifles, and even some shotguns are semiautomatic. As an AK47 owner, as the law is currently written I have no idea if id have to obtain a class B license for rifles or Class C for semiautomatics. Ditto if I had a Beretta 9 mm handgun.

3. Bump stocks are considered as machine guns and are thus heavily regulated as to basically make them unavailable.

That ties in with an earlier intervention. The solution is not to repeal this law in such a manner that there is basically no control at all, but write it in a more efficient and conscious way.

Given that the law, as written, takes effect in less than a month but is written in such a confusing, intrusive, haphazard manner, the law should at least be postponed a year either to correct it further or have the bureaucrats explain execution better. The law needs to be heavily amended but amending it less than a month prior to taking effect will not provide govt employees or the public adequate time to figure out the law.

So if Rod screams at his brother Todd "I hate you and Im going to kill you!!!" But Todd doesn't report the threat, has a crime been committed under this law if 45 days later Rod buys a hunting rifle to gift to Todd as an Im sorry present? have either Rod, Todd, or the gundealer who performed a background check committed a crime?

That is problematic. How would you suggest fixing it? Removing "specific citizen," and adding "public" before "specific threat"?
