He also admitted that MSRs and hunting rifles work the same way (that’s the function of a semiautomatic firearm – one trigger pull, one cartridge expended). Ĭhipman said that magazines “turn normal guns onto killing machines,” FPC tweeted , and that people use the term “clip” because it rhymes better in rap songs. “Chipman says that hunting rifles can be more lethal than other guns because some animals are bigger than people, but they’re not made to kill a lot of people,” FPC tweeted.

However, he also claimed the ATF didn’t use them in raids because they were “ considered too powerful.” He also admitted that Modern Sporting Rifles (MSRs), which he refers to as “assault weapons,” are less powerful than the average hunting rifle. He confessed that criminals most often use handguns, without mentioning that those are ill-gotten, either through theft or bought and sold illegally on the black market. Using that, he admitted that the vaunted “assault weapon” isn’t the bogeyman gun control groups and politicians make it out to be. Chipman’s Deep ThoughtsĬhipman presented a slide show created when he was working for the Giffords gun control group. Yet, that’s exactly what they want for the firearm industry when they push for the repeal of the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act ( PLCAA). That’s the law that prevents frivolous lawsuits for the criminal actions of remote third parties – also known as criminals. That means no one could hold Everytown responsible for “injury, illness, damages, costs, claims or losses.” Gun control groups didn’t want to be held responsible for the misdeeds, or potentially criminal actions, of remote third parties. The “terms” included a nondisclosure agreement, a liability release, and a “Safety and Security” release, indemnifying Everytown and the other groups. Luckily, Firearm Policy Coalition live-tweeted the entire thing. That included not recording “any part of the Event unless Everytown provides express permission….” NSSF couldn’t agree to those terms and didn’t tune in. They just didn’t want anyone talking about them talking about gun control.

Just hours before going live with the webinar, Everytown for Gun Safety issued a “Terms of Participation” Agreement. NSSF is living rent-free in Chipman’s head. Putting him in charge of the ATF would have been no better than “hiring a militant vegan to be head chef at a Brazilian steakhouse,” as Sen. It was NSSF that worked to block Chipman’s nomination.
