.........fo real?

Looks like I need to actually read it too. I was counting on getting grandfathered.

link to full doc?

otherwise....they can come and take them from my cold dead hands.

No, not for real. Current items will get grandfathered and registered as NFA items.

you havent read it, have you?
There is no grandfather clause.
If it passes as proposed, you must turn in all mags, weapons, everything

So your best move is to sell it all to me at low ball prices....

Following is a summary of the 2013 legislation:

  • Semiautomatic rifles and handguns with a fixed magazine that can accept more than 10 rounds.
  
  
• Strengthens the 1994 Assault Weapons Ban and various state bans by:
  
  • Moving from a 2-characteristic test to a 1-characteristic test;
  • Eliminating the easy-to-remove bayonet mounts and flash suppressors from the characteristics test; and
  • Banning firearms with “thumbhole stocks” and “bullet buttons” to address attempts to “work around” prior bans.
  
  
• Bans large-capacity ammunition feeding devices capable of accepting more than 10 rounds.
• Protects legitimate hunters and the rights of existing gun owners by:
  
  • Grandfathering weapons legally possessed on the date of enactment;
  • Exempting over 900 specifically-named weapons used for hunting or sporting purposes; and
  • Exempting antique, manually-operated, and permanently disabled weapons.
  
  
• Requires that grandfathered weapons be registered under the National Firearms Act, to include:
  
  • Background check of owner and any transferee;
  • Type and serial number of the firearm;
  • Positive identification, including photograph and fingerprint;
  • Certification from local law enforcement of identity and that possession would not violate State or local law; and
