Next on the list of things to attack are the folding stock and the reduced barrel length. The reason the Brady Center uses is that they both “sacrifice accuracy and range” for “concealablity in combat situations” and “mobility in close combat.”
Do you see the paradox here? They want to ban options they think give you better control of your weapon and make it more accurate; no supporting scientific evidence is offered or even a personal experience saying “I used this weapon and found out that…”. They then turn around and want to ban options they say make the weapon inaccurate and shorten the range hat the weapon can reach out and touch someone. Again, no scientific proof is mentioned.
The list grows with high capacity magazines that extend outside of the pistol grip. In the past the Brady Campaign has also wanted to ban high capacity magazines that did not extend from the pistol grip. They are trying to cover both ends of this option.
