As a new federal edict could come down that vastly changes the definition of a gun dealer, House Democrats are pushing to slap a massive tax on what they term “assault weapons.”

On Friday, 25 House Democrats proposed a 1,000 percent excise tax on so-called assault weapons and large capacity magazines, according to Fox News.

The bill was sponsored by Rep. Don Beyer of Virginia and 24 other Democrats. Republicans control the House with a narrow majority.

Beyer proposed a similar bill last year that put the 1,000 percent excise tax on anything that was or was part of a semiautomatic weapon that could hold more than 10 rounds of ammunition.
