This is the assault weapons ban for 2019

This bill makes it a crime to knowingly import, sell, manufacture, transfer, or possess a semiautomatic assault weapon (SAW) or large capacity ammunition feeding device (LCAFD).
The prohibition does not apply to a firearm that is (1) manually operated by bolt, pump, lever, or slide action; (2) permanently inoperable; (3) an antique; or (4) a rifle or shotgun specifically identified by make and model.
The bill also exempts from the prohibition the following, with respect to a SAW or LCAFD:
importation, sale, manufacture, transfer, or possession related to certain law enforcement efforts, or authorized tests or experiments;
importation, sale, transfer, or possession related to securing nuclear materials; and
possession by a retired law enforcement officer.
The bill permits continued possession, sale, or transfer of a grandfathered SAW, which must be securely stored. A licensed gun dealer must conduct a background check prior to the sale or transfer of a grandfathered SAW between private parties.
The bill permits continued possession of, but prohibits sale or transfer of, a grandfathered LCAFD.
Newly manufactured LCAFDs must display serial number identification. Newly manufactured SAWs and LCAFDs must display the date of manufacture.
The bill requires law enforcement agencies to be notified when a prohibited person attempts to purchase a grandfathered SAW.
It also allows a state or local government to use Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant Program funds to compensate individuals who surrender a SAW or LCAFD under a buy-back program.

Do you people actually still believe laws like that make any genuine difference? What about all of those who already own such weapons, are we going to send the Gestapo in to haul them off to jail? What about those who can craft homemade weapons? I could go on, but think you get the picture. Small wonder why our homosexual brothers and sisters are under constant attack, and reproductive rights too, as I truly believe such is out of direct retaliation against legislation like that mentioned above.

Does 'grandfathered' allow existing owners to keep their guns?

Read the last paragraph. Seems like if this goes into effect you can still keep yours.
