Not sure how factual it was but this law and more importantly the clip ban have actually hurt our military. With the assualt guns being banned most of our future military rifles will come from other countries like the new X8 which is based on designs from HK(Heckler & Koch XM29). US companies which relied on adapting tech to civilian use simply are seeking other areas like Colt. The clip ban has seen the gun industry stop making clips in general. The ones being procured by are military are crap for the Berretas. The springs are junk and they can barely hold 10 rounds without jamming when they should hold 17. Troops over in Iraq/Afganistan are asking parents to find preban clips and send them. A deplorable state of affairs caused by this bill.
