The proposed assault weapons ban would make it “unlawful to man manufacture, sell, purchase, transport, carry, store or otherwise hold in one’s possession an assault weapon within the City, such as the Colt semi-automatic rifle used in the Tree of Life shooting,” a December letter said.

Meanwhile, an accessories, ammunition and modification ban would bar items such as bump stocks, armor-penetrating bullets, sawed-off rifles and large capacity magazines.
“I understand the desire of local governments to be proactive in reducing gun violence and the opportunities to cause the type of pain, suffering, and dead, which recently occurred in the City of Pittsburgh,” Zappala said in the Jan. 9 letter. “I believe, however, that the legislative effort needs to come from the General Assembly of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and that the legislation currently before Council, if passed, will be found unconstitutional.”
