This comes from Dianne Feinstein's Senate web site
http://www.feinstein.senate.gov/public/index.cfm/assault-weapons
Summary of 2013 legislation
Following is a summary of the 2013 legislation:
* Bans the sale, transfer, importation, or manufacturing of:
120 specifically-named firearms;
*Certain other semiautomatic rifles, handguns, shotguns that can accept a detachable magazine and have one or more military characteristics; and
*Semiautomatic rifles and handguns with a fixed magazine that can accept more than 10 rounds.
*Strengthens the 1994 Assault Weapons Ban and various state bans by:
*Moving from a 2-characteristic test to a 1-characteristic test;
*Eliminating the easy-to-remove bayonet mounts and flash suppressors from the characteristics test; and
*Banning firearms with “thumbhole stocks” and “bullet buttons” to address attempts to “work around” prior bans.
*Bans large-capacity ammunition feeding devices capable of accepting more than 10 rounds.
*Protects legitimate hunters and the rights of existing gun owners by:
*Grandfathering weapons legally possessed on the date of enactment;
*Exempting over 900 specifically-named weapons used for hunting or sporting purposes; and
*Exempting antique, manually-operated, and permanently disabled weapons.
*Requires that grandfathered weapons be registered under the National Firearms Act, to include:
*Background check of owner and any transferee; (goodbye private sales)
*Type and serial number of the firearm;
*Positive identification, including photograph and fingerprint;
*Certification from local law enforcement of identity and that possession would not violate State or local law; and
*Dedicated funding for ATF to implement registration.
Here is another report on this bill from the NRA.
http://www.nraila.org/legislation/federa...n-ban-bill.aspx
Requires owners of existing “assault weapons” to register them with the federal government under the National Firearms Act (NFA). The NFA imposes a $200 tax per firearm, and requires an owner to submit photographs and fingerprints to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (BATFE), to inform the BATFE of the address where the firearm will be kept, and to obtain the BATFE’s permission to transport the firearm across state lines.
Prohibits the transfer of “assault weapons.” Owners of other firearms, including those covered by the NFA, are permitted to sell them or pass them to heirs. However, under Feinstein’s new bill, “assault weapons” would remain with their current owners until their deaths, at which point they would be forfeited to the government.

She is probably foaming at the mouth like a rabid dog. She said she would get our guns and was just waiting on the right time to do it.
