Dubbed the “GOSAFE Act,” this unconstitutional bill would regulate the sale, transfer and manufacture of “gas-operated semi-automatic firearms by establishing a list and prevent modifications of so-called “prohibited firearms.”
Similar legislation has been introduced in state legislatures and has even been signed into law by Colorado Governor Jared Polis in recent weeks.
According to a press release from the bill sponsor U.S. Senator Mark Kelly (D-AZ) the GOSAFE Act would:
Regulate the sale, transfer, and manufacture of gas-operated semi-automatic firearms by:
- Establishing a list of prohibited firearms;
- Preventing modifications of permissible firearms;
- Mandating that future gas-operated designs are approved before manufacture;
- Preventing firearm self-assembly and manufacturing;
- Prohibiting machinegun conversion devices;
- Limit high-capacity ammunition devices;
This legislation is certainly more restrictive than what even California and New York have on the books regarding semi-automatic firearms.
