    BACK IN BUSINE$$ Gun Industry Plans for the Expiration of the Federal Assault Weapons Ban September 7, 2004 Consumer Federation of America The Consumer Federation of America (CFA) is a nonprofit association of 300 consumer groups, representing more than 50 million Americans that was established in 1968 to advance the consumer interest through research, education, and advocacy. This report was authored by CFA Firearms Project Director Susan Peschin, MHS. Research assistance was provided by Josh Brownstein. Special thanks to Whit Collins, Robert Ricker, and Joseph Vince for their expertise, comments, and review. 1 Introduction In 1994, President Clinton signed The Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act, which included a ban on semiautomatic assault weapons such as the Uzi, AK-47, and TEC-9. The “assault weapons ban” also outlawed high-capacity ammunition magazines that hold more than ten rounds. However, in the negotiating process, lawmakers agreed to a ten-year sunset clause in the legislation. Thus, the assault weapons ban will expire on September 13, 2004 unless Congress and President Bush renew it. Both President Bush and Attorney General Ashcroft have repeatedly said that they support the assault weapons ban, and Attorney General Ashcroft has declared the ban constitutional. Due to the efforts of state gun violence prevention groups, reauthorization and strengthening of the ban is supported by more than 2,000 police chiefs, sheriffs, district attorneys and law enforcement groups. In addition, a majority of Americans support the assault weapons ban. Two national polls commissioned by CFA in September 2003 and February 2004 found that substantial majorities of the public supported renewing the federal assault weapons ban and even more strongly supported new measures to strengthen the ban.

  • FN P90 Fact Sheet
    SALW Guide Global distribution and visual identification FN P90 Fact sheet https://salw-guide.bicc.de FN P90 SALW Guide FN P90 A personal defense weapon (often abbreviated PDW) is a compact semi- automatic or fully-automatic firearm similar in most respects to a submachine gun, but firing an (often proprietary) armor-piercing round, giving a PDW better range, accuracy and armor-penetrating capability than submachine guns, which fire pistol-caliber cartridges.The P90 was designed to have a length no greater than a man's shoulder width, in order to be easily carried and maneuvered in tight spaces, such as the inside of an armored vehicle. To achieve this, the weapon's design utilizes the unconventional bullpup configuration, in which the action and magazine are located behind the trigger and alongside the shooter's face, so that there is no wasted space in the stock. The P90's dimensions are also minimized by its unique horizontally mounted feeding system, wherein the box magazine sits parallel to the barrel on top of the weapon's frame. Overall, the weapon has an extremely compact profile.
