Joe Biden is still talking about banning 9mm handguns HotAir

We re still hearing reports that Joe Biden is pondering doing something along the lines of introducing new gun bans and he s being heavily lobbied by anti-Second Amendment groups to do so quickly. It s unclear whether he s talking about supporting legislative action or if he s actually crazy enough to try to go it alone and do it via executive order. Even more curious is the specific nature of his suggested proposals. He s on board with the gun-grabbing groups call for a ban on scary-looking assault rifles, but he s also talking about banning handguns. Not all handguns, however. Just 9mm handguns with detachable magazines. The NRA-ILA reminds us of when he launched into a diatribe on this subject during a recent CNN Town Hall.

That is a really bad idea. It also has a Heller of a constitutional problem. Har har.
