"Despite increasing evidence that a variety of terrorist organizations are buying the most lethal categories of guns in the United States, the House Judiciary Committee today voted down two anti-terror gun amendments to the USA Patriot and Terrorism Prevention Reauthorization Act of 2005 (H.R 3199). The Committee rejected an amendment to include within the existing crime of providing material support to terrorists the transfer of firearms to persons known to be listed in the Violent Gang and Terrorist Organization File. The Committee later rejected an amendment to include within the crime of providing material support to terrorists the transfer of a 50 caliber sniper rifle to any member of Al Qaeda. "
