Lower receiver ban

[Constant]

A search for HR 2910 did not show any posts here.

Just another bill to keep an eye on to rally against. I believe it will be marketed as a mental health bill rather then as an incompete 80% lower receiver ban. Most likely will die in committee. At least that's the hope.
