Senate Hearing on Gun Control Bill Faces NRA Pressure
The Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Juvenile Delinquency resumed hearings on Sen. Thomas Dodd's gun control measure. Dodd accuses the gun lobby led by the NRA of dooming the bill while the compromise proposal tightens controls on mail order sales and interstate transfers. The revised draft would bar mail order purchases to individuals, prohibit sales to those under 21 for most firearms, and restrict importations of surplus weapons, with licensing and enforcement tightened. Sportsmen oppose the bill, labeling it extreme despite the federal licensing framework.
