In the wake of the mass shootings in Las Vegas, more members of Congress seem to be receptive to the idea of more restrictions on certain types of guns and modifications.

South Dakota Senator Mike Rounds says he will look at those other recommendations…………

Rounds says fully automatic weapons have been outlawed for almost one hundred years. He says it makes sense to extend that to gun modifications……

Rounds says he will look at a bill proposed by California Senator Diane Feinstein……

Congress is on a break next week, and will take up those issues when they return.
