NM Senator Heinrich Proposes Restricting Gun That Does Not Exist


Benny Johnson

Democratic New Mexico Sen. Martin Heinrich advocated age restricting a gun that does not exist on MSNBC Thursday. Heinrich stated that he wants a ban on “gas-assisted receiver firearms.” Host Kristen Welker had asked if Heinrich thought that “increasing age limits” on firearms were “a real possibility here with this president?” Heinrich said in response:
There are a couple of things I can think of that I think are possible now. Increasing age limits. Certainly somebody who’s 18, 19, 20 years old shouldn’t be able to purchase an assault rifle, an AR-15 or other gas-assisted receiver firearms when they can’t buy a simple handgun, so that should be changed.
The only small problem is that this gun does not exist. There is no such thing as “gas-assisted receiver firearms.”...more

Some of the responses on twitter are hilarious:

That'll make it easier to compromise with the Dems... we'll give you ban on "gas-assisted receiver firearms" ...what are you going to give us ?
