Why the model tagged it this way: The bill enacts a broad federal ban on semiautomatic assault weapons (defined by features such as pistol grips, threaded barrels, detachable magazines over 10 rounds, and enumerated models) and large-capacity feeding devices, with grandfathering only for pre-ban possession; it adds secure-storage mandates for grandfathered items, new marking requirements, and a crime-tracking record, all of which impose new restrictions on ownership, transfer, manufacture and features of the covered firearms and accessories.
