Saw this in my inbox this morning, thought I would be the first to post it...

The lowlights:

Reduces, from two to one, the number of permitted external features on various firearms
Adopts new lists of prohibited external features
Carries hyperbole further than the 1994 ban
Expands the definition of “assault weapon”
Requires owners of existing “assault weapons” to register them with the federal government under the National Firearms Act (NFA)
Prohibits the transfer of “assault weapons.”
Prohibits the domestic manufacture and the importation of magazines that hold more than 10 rounds of ammunition.
Targets handguns in defiance of the Supreme Court
Contains a larger piece of window dressing than the 1994 ban
