Navy Yard weapon exempted under proposed ban
Easy solution: add it to the ban list


WASHINGTON (AP) -- The shotgun used by the Navy Yard shooter is identified by name as a firearm that would not be covered under a proposed weapons ban supported by the White House.

The shotgun Navy Yard gunman Aaron Alexis used in his rampage, the Remington 870 Express, is included in a long list of firearms that would be exempted from a ban if legislation introduced in the Senate earlier this year were to become law.

The bill, introduced by California Democrat Dianne Feinstein, has little hope of passage. It would ban 157 specific firearms designed for military and law enforcement use, and it would exempt more than 2,200 others.

3. Why not?

If you can kill 8 people in 8 seconds with it, then it doesn't need to be on the streets.

The Aurora shooter did most of his killing with a pump shotgun as well.

It seems to be just as bad as a Bushmaster.

Must have on of those high capacity magazine clips.   :lmao:
I think even the tactical version is limited to seven.

It's a double barrel pump shotgun and those hold 8 shells. Pretty sure the 870 Express only holds five.

I won one in a raffle last year.  Thinking about a Brownells 18" rifle-sighted barrel for it.

Now I am confused.  Sheriff Joe Biden said I need to get rid of my assault rifles because all I need is a shotgun. Now the DUmmies want to ban them.

Yeah, I'm thinking probably not...but I believe a tiny number of such things do exist, made by your odd firepower freak form time to time, usually from two 870s.  If I was gonna do that, I'd prefer to use Saiga autos, I think.

Now, now! I bet I can do that! 'course it's no weenie like an 870! I can take a solid core door out, so a small oak may not be that big a deal. Dunno, never tried. Nowadays BuckShot is expensive, if ya can find it.

Cop killer buck shot!! It should be illegal and banned with the exception of law enforcement, because you know they are trained and stuff or something. /sarc

But now wait a minute DUmmies, one of your heroes (Bright-boy Biden) told me to go out an get a shotgun and then shoot through the door.  Would you make up  my mind for me?  Then again I expect nothing less from you idiots, whose morals are about as loose as crap through a goose.
