The most important section of the bill is section 2, the "Definitions," which sets out the scope of what the bill covers. After wading through the text that modifies the relevant federal code, we get to this part:
(36) The term 'semiautomatic assault weapon' means any of the following, regardless of country of manufacture or caliber of ammunition accepted:

(A) A semiautomatic rifle that—

(i) has a magazine that is not a fixed magazine; and

(ii) does have any 1 of the following:

(I) A pistol grip.

(II) A forward grip.

(III) A folding, telescoping, or detachable stock, or is otherwise foldable or adjustable in a manner that operates to reduce the length, size, or any other dimension, or otherwise enhances the concealability, of the weapon.

(IV) A grenade launcher.

(V) A barrel shroud.

(VI) A threaded barrel.

(B) A semiautomatic rifle that has a fixed magazine with the capacity to accept more than 10 rounds, except for an attached tubular device designed to accept, and capable of operating only with, .22 caliber rimfire ammunition.

(C) Any part, combination of parts, component, device, attachment, or accessory that is designed or functions to accelerate the rate of fire of a semiautomatic firearm but not convert the semiautomatic firearm into a machinegun.

(D) A semiautomatic pistol that—

(i) has a magazine that is not a fixed magazine; and

(ii) does have any 1 of the following:

(I) A threaded barrel.

(II) A second pistol grip.

(III) A barrel shroud.

(IV) The capacity to accept a detachable magazine at some location outside of the pistol grip.

(V) A semiautomatic version of an automatic firearm.

(VI) A manufactured weight of 50 ounces or more when unloaded.

(VII) A stabilizing brace or similar component.

(E) A semiautomatic pistol with a fixed magazine that has the capacity to accept more than 10 rounds.

(F) A semiautomatic shotgun that—

(i) has the capacity to utilize a magazine that is not a fixed magazine; and

(ii) does have any 1 of the following:

(I) A folding, telescoping, or detachable stock.

(II) A pistol grip or bird's head grip.

(III) A fixed magazine with the capacity to accept more than 5 rounds.

(IV) The ability to accept a detachable magazine.

(V) A forward grip.

(VI) A grenade launcher.

(G) Any shotgun with a revolving cylinder.

(H) All of the following rifles, copies, duplicates, variants, or altered facsimiles with the capability of any such weapon thereof.

The bill then lists a number of firearms in mind-numbing detail, after which it sets forth some additional definitions, with two that are very important in determining the scope of this ban:

(42) The term 'forward grip' means a grip located forward of the trigger that functions as a pistol grip. ...

(45) The term 'pistol grip' means a grip, a thumbhole stock or Thordsen-type grip or stock, or any other characteristic that can function as a grip.

The bottom line is that if you have a semi-automatic rifle with a detachable magazine with "any other characteristic that can function as a grip," or a semi-automatic pistol that has a magazine that is not a fixed magazine with one of the myriad features listed, then congratulations! You're now the proud owner of an "assault weapon."

But, but jeffo said the dems wouldn't come after guns.

That dumbf u c k is over on iFish talking about how this bill is unconstitutional.

From my cold dead hands....

Pass the bill and it’s up to you to enforce it.

As usual, the first reply is the best.

Pass the bill and it’s up to you to enforce it.

were it not for the police force ready to do as told, this would be just another example of politicians with stupid ideas.

Can't add to that..

Of course it'll pass the House.

Question is, how many traitors in the Senate?

Wife said... well we gotta die somehow sometime.

They're not just coming for the guns but everydamnthing I stand for!

Wife said... well we gotta die somehow sometime.

Kent

yep.

Don’t schit yourself, minus a few County Sheriffs here and there, every law enforcement officer and agency in America will gladly put on their Jack-boots and enforce whatever they are told to enforce.

It will never pass. They aren't coming this directly. Watch for the end-around

You will own nothing and be happy, or not (WEF/NWO/UN agenda 2030). Confiscating firearms is the most crucial step to implementing this.
