Here's a copy and paste from the good Senators web page:
"Senator Schumer is the leading advocate for gun control in Congress. Among his many accomplishments as a Congressman are the passage of the Brady Bill in 1993, the Assault Weapons Ban in 1994, and the Cop Killer Bullet Ban:
• The Brady Bill has successfully stopped 242,000 felons from buying handguns.
• Passed in 1993, the Brady Bill requires all licensed firearm dealers to run a background check on perspective handgun owners.
• The bill also mandated a five day waiting period to run the background check until November 30, 1998 when the FBI implemented the nationwide instant background check system.
• The 1994 Assault Weapons Ban restricts the manufacture, sale, or possession of semiautomatic weapons.
• The law also prohibits the transfer or possession of ammunition devices capable of holding more than 10 rounds and mandates all new feeding devices be identified with a serial number.
• The Cop Killer Bullet Ban was added to the Omnibus Crime Act of 1994 by Schumer. It prohibits the manufacture and importation of "full jacket projectiles" greater than .22 caliber."
