Original Note:
assault weapons bans like the 1994 law had mixed results: crimes with assault weapons decreased,but other guns with large-capacity magazines rose. Research indicates magazine bans might lessen mass shooting fatalities,but the impact of assault weapons bans alone is unclear. https://www.factcheck.org/2021/03/factchecking-bidens-claim-that-assault-weapons-ban-worked/ https://intellectualtakeout.org/2022/06/the-governments-own-study-concluded-its-ban-on-assault-weapons-didnt-reduce-gun-violence/
