The laws go into effect on July 1, but some Commonwealth’s Attorneys have already instructed law enforcement not to arrest anyone for violations of the “assault firearms” ban because they will not prosecute the cases.
Ryan Mehaffey, a Marine veteran and one of the Commonwealth’s Attorneys standing up against the Governor’s gun grab, sent a letter to Spotsylvania Sheriff Roger Harris, instructing him that the ban is “unconstitutional and cannot be lawfully enforced.”
Mehaffey believes the United States and Virginia Constitutions protect citizens’ rights to possess standard infantry weapons. During the country’s founding, the standard issue was a musket with 20 rounds of ammunition. Today, he says, that equates to an M4A1 carbine and a 30-round magazine.
