This bill is good because it stops people from changing guns to be more dangerous. It's important to keep everyone safe and this bill helps do that. I support it because I want to feel safe in my community.

I'm not sure how I feel about this bill. It's sad that we even have to consider banning machinegun conversion devices and illegal modifications of semiautomatic firearms. It's a step in the right direction, but I'm unsure about the details of it. #HR2799 #guncontrol

I don't like this new thing they're trying to do with guns. It's gonna mess things up for a lot of people. But hey, we gotta keep looking at the big picture, right?
