Indeed - in 1994 they were "lucky" only seven out of eight times, if by "lucky" you mean working their tails off on the Hill, and we got stuck with a gun and magazine capacity ban for ten straight years.

What I meant was the antis were lucky to get the 94 AWB through. It was only due to a lot of last minute arm twisting and back-room deals after a few votes on the bill went down in flames, that they finally got the CBC and a few blue dogs to sign on to it. The NRA worked damned hard to defeat that one and it was still a close vote in the end.
Had the NRA not been there in 1994, that ban would have been a lot worse, and it would have been permanent.
