This bill proposes the repeal of section 61-7-9 of the Code of West Virginia, which currently makes it unlawful to possess machine guns, specifically fully automatic weapons. By repealing this section, the bill aims to eliminate the existing legal restrictions and penalties associated with the possession of such firearms.

The intent of the legislation is to remove the prohibition on machine gun possession, thereby allowing individuals to legally own fully automatic weapons in West Virginia. This change reflects a shift in the state's approach to firearm regulations concerning dangerous weapons.
