AG Healey Announces Crackdown On 'Copycat' Assault Weapons In Mass.


Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey says she’s cracking down on the sale of guns that have been modified to skirt the state’s assault weapons ban passed in 1998.

She says the gun industry has openly defied the law, and she’s stepping up enforcement, especially in the wake of the mass shooting at an Orlando nightclub and the shootings of police officers in Dallas and Baton Rouge.

Healey says she is referring to weapons that she says have been “tweaked” to become so-called state compliant.

“If a gun’s operating system is essentially the same as a banned weapon, or a gun’s component parts are interchangeable with those of a banned weapon, it’s a copy and it’s illegal,” said Healey.

Despite the law, Healey estimates some 10,000 copycat assault weapons were sold in Massachusetts last year. While manufacturers have deemed certain weapons in compliance, she said her office looked at the issue and concluded they weren’t.



P.S. 10,000 "assault rifles" were sold in MA last year. 7 were used to commit crime. 7 out of 10000.

The only ones they want with guns are the police.

Massachusetts is EASILY the most patrolled state in the country. We also have one of the most strict gun policies. shyt is kind of mind-blowing. I hope the courts strike this down. She didn't get approval from the Governor or legislation so theres a possibility its overturned.
