The Gilboa Snake Double Barrel Assault Rifle is coming to a gun shop near you.

This Israeli gun is designed specifically to avoid laws against machine guns in the US, and to hold TWO 30-round magazines. Thread. #NoRA
US Law defines a machine gun as "...any weapon which shoots, is designed to shoot, or can be readily restored to shoot, automatically more than one shot, without manual reloading, by a single function of the trigger."

Pretty clear, right? Well this gun has TWO triggers. #NoRA
...So technically, it fires two rounds almost simultaneously, by a single function of each trigger. Much like bump stocks, it relies on a deadly technicality to legally exist.
So who makes these guns? Why, they are manufactured right here in America by McKay Enterprises, headquartered in Mendota Heights, Minnesota. This company also makes the UZI, another extremely deadly Israeli weapon. #NoRA

Mendota Heights, Minnesota is represented by @RepJasonLewis, a Republican who has taken money from the @NRA. #NoRA

Now, back to that Gibloa Snake AR-15:

It is being distributed by LDB Supply of Dayton, Ohio. Dayton is represented in Congress by @RepMikeTurner, who has taken over $21,000 from the @NRA. #NoRA

These guns skirt US law intentionally. The companies which make and sell them are represented by congresspeople who are puppets of the @NRA. The way to stop these guns? #VoteThemOut. Vote only for those who have never taken and pledge to never take NRA money. #NoRA

Hey .@SenateMajLdr McConnell: we know it can be hard to think of what the federal government can do to stop school shootings when you’ve taken $1.6 million in .@NRA money, so we made a simple thread. #NoRA
We know you like to say mental health is the problem. (It’s not the whole problem, but ok). Maybe stop gutting Medicaid and community health centers. Mental healthcare for the poor is a critical tool to stop many kinds of violence. #NoRA
Mandate trigger locks and safe storage. Properly stored and secured guns could have prevented any number of shootings, including Sandy Hook. #NoRA

What @Dloesch, @Benhowe and @NRATV are trying to do by breathlessly attacking @alyssa_milano because 1 event security guard she did not hire and we did not ask to be armed may have made a personal choice to carry a weapon is to distract you from the following things that matter:
1. The @NRA just appointed a man who sold arms to Iran, funded a dictator and a revolutionary group in Central America and destroyed evidence of the same, and who has a history of attacking LGBTQ and other comminities of Americans as their new president.
2. There is an ongoing and expanding investigation into the @NRA's Russian funding. In fact, during their convention, they hosted TulAmmo, a company with ties to the Kremlin and a recently-sanctioned Russian oligarch.
