So, looks like a AWB will be proposed on the first day of Congress. The Provisions Here.
It's worth noting that it grandfathers in MSRs that are legally owned, but nothing is said about a manufactured date. So if Remington, S&W, Spikes, etc. are going nuts manufacturing the hell out of AR-15s in anticipation of jacking up prices, it won't mean diddly unless they've already been sold to the public.
Note that she claims that the AWB was responsible for a decline in gun violence, and then ignores that gun violence continued to decline after the AWB expired.
This AWB is substantially more harsh than existing ones in CA, NY, MA etc. It mentions "100 specifically banned by name" and "rifles that can accept a detachable magazine", which is probably intended to close the Bullet Button loophole, and prevent the sale of semi-automatics like the Mini-14 or M-14 derivatives. It also looks like you cannot "sale or transfer" grandfathered black rifles, so presumably if I fall over dead and have in a will that I want my AR to go to someone, that's a no-go.
Meanwhile...
The Big Box Stores are pulling MSRs from the shelves
The article mentions Dick's specifically, but it seems Academy is pulling them as well. Major online weapons dealer CheaperThanDirt has also halted gun sales.
And...
Run on ammo, magazines, gun manufacturers stock tanks
The $60 30rd mag is particularly hilarious, when you could have bought them for $13 in September
