"Gun haters for reasonable infringements" or some such group is lighting up the airwaves here. Even the Beckley stations are running a commercial telling Virginians to urge politicians to vote no.

Full of statements like "isn't one gun a month enough?" and "how many pistols do you need?"
It ended with the phone number of someone's office line to harangue them.

It played at least twice an hour all day.

Senate vote postponed

Virginia vote on handgun limit is postponed
The Virginia Senate put off a vote Friday to lift the state’s one-per-month limit on handgun purchases.

The Senate postponed action to give two senators who were absent Friday the chance to vote on the bill. It is expected to come back for a final vote Monday.

...

That is not to say the gun lobby will get everything it wants from this General Assembly session, even with the GOP in control of the House, Senate and governor’s mansion. A Senate committee has killed two high-profile gun-rights proposals that would have done away with state background checks and prevented colleges from banning firearms on campus.

Incorrect: Senator Carrico himself said he wanted his bill, SB324, carried-over to the next Session.

The former being more popular with the Descending Trouser Folks than the more difficult to control latter...
