120. Surrrrre...that's why the gun industry sued several times
to over turn it and made keeping it from coming to an open vote its legislative priority--because it was so ineffective.

In fact, the gun industry itself showed what a pantload this "the ban did nothing" line is...when they were trying to push their disgraceful "You can't sue us nyah nyah nyah" bill through Congress, Kerry and the Democrats attached a renewal of the ban (and a rider to shut the gun show loophole)...and the NRA promptly killed its own bill.
