Gun Stuff

Their list is based entirely on the 2013 census and the ATF’s National Firearms Registration and Transfer Record. The ATF record – which doesn’t include pistols – covers the sale and transfer of the following weapons:

• machine guns
• short-barreled rifles and shotguns,
• suppressors
• destructive devices like bombs and grenades
• concealable devices with the ability to discharge a shot through the energy of an explosive
• any firearm with a bore over half an inch that has not been determined to have a legitimate sporting use.
