Apparently Italians have been sold out by their own Italian gun makers. They lobbied in FAVOR of a "black rifle" import ban.

Didn't gun makers in New England support import bans years ago? And it backfired?

Yeah, it was called the Gun Control Act. And it didn't really backfire on them, as they had close to a monopoly for over a decade. (Their own shoddy business practices hurt them more than a monopoly could ever help.)
