Biden Goes on Record Demanding New Handguns & Rifles Be Single-Shot Only

“I made a commitment and I mean it,” Biden said, “I made a commitment that I’m going to do everything in my power, in office or out of office, to get those assault weapons off the street — which I’ve done once already — and to get those clips that have multiple bullets in them not for sale, not be able to sell silencers.”

Joe Biden says that he wants to ban "clips that have multiple bullets in them."

This makes no sense.

All clips hold multiple rounds. That's the definition of a clip.

Biden also probably means to say magazines, but it's the same problem. Magazines hold multiple rounds. pic.twitter.com/HREQ4Vj5ya

Coming just days before the Nevada caucuses, Biden’s claim drew cheers from audience members in Las Vegas, a community deeply impacted in October 2017 by the deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history — which claimed the lives of 58 concert-goers on the Strip and injured hundreds more.

Unfortunately for the floundering old-line Democrat, however, the claim does little more than capitalize on the emotional ammunition generated by re-opening old wounds.

That and, of course, fully display the impacts of a race-to-the-bottom 2020 Democratic presidential primary, which has doomed the party’s moderates to a skydiving trip down the endless rabbit hole of left-wing radicalism.

Put more simply by the Trump campaign’s Deputy Director of Communications Zach Parkinson, Biden’s statement “makes no sense.”

First of all, anyone worth even half his salt on the topic of firearms knows that a bullet is the projectile a gun fires. The thing one inserts into the firearm to discharge that bullet is a cartridge, which is comprised of the bullet, the gunpowder and the shell casing.

Second of all, a clip is an outdated tool used to hold cartridges for ease of loading older firearm models by hand.
