Perhaps my memory is faulty, (again ) but I don't remember hearing Reagan support the AWB.

Reagan stood with Bill Clinton, Gerald Ford and Jimmy Carter and supported the AWB.
Refresh your memory here:
Quote:
On May 3, 1994, Ronald Reagan and two other former presidents sent a letter to House members, urging them to support a controversial ban on lethal, military-style assault weapons. At the time, President Clinton was battling Republicans, conservative Democrats and the NRA to pass a bill barring many semiautomatic rifles.

It was later discovered (and only publicized in the gun press) that Dodd had gotten a copy and translation of a 1933 (34?) Nazi gun control law, and large parts of the 68 GCA that he sponsored was virtually a word for word reproduction of that law!!

There was no 1933-34 Nazi gun control law.
