Joe Biden’s proposed gun control policy includes a provision that could require a $200 federal tax on every AR-15 rifle.

Regulate possession of existing assault weapons under the National Firearms Act.
Currently, the National Firearms Act requires individuals possessing machine-guns, silencers, and short-barreled rifles to undergo a background check and register those weapons with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF).
And pay the federal government a $200 tax for each weapon.
Due to these requirements, such weapons are
rarely used in crimes.
As president, Biden will pursue legislation to
regulate possession of existing assault weapons under the National Firearms Act.
This policy could encompass “all existing assault weapons".
In practice, this could mean every American who owns a weapon like an AR-15 — or any other gun deemed by Democrats to be an “assault weapon” would have to pay this post purchase tax.
