I'll talk tough. I'd like to see them try and tell me to turn in my guns! I don't have any, HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!
Do you think there will be a gun ban?
- Thread starter straight-shot
- Start date
Most people don't understand what the 1994 assault weapon ban did. It did not make it illegal to own high cap mags, just prevented further manufacturing and importation of them, same with AR-15's, they just couldn't have the combination of two of the following, pistol grip, flash suppressor, telescoping stock, Bayonet lug, Grenade launcher. Again it never made the previous models with these features illegal, just prevent further production.
As a collector with close to 200 guns the 1989 foreign assault weapon ban that HW Bush signed did the most damage, it stopped the import of 43 weapons (last count I own 35 of these) something it did not do was make them illegal to own. What it did was make a H&K SP89 that cost $600 now in the 3 to 4K range.
The Brady Bill did do a few things I agree with, I have no problem with background checks, also filling out a form 4473 does not bother me, that form is called in to the FBI call center, but that form is never sent to the ATF, in fact all the know is if your buying a rifle, shotgun or pistol, (now your local state and city laws may require registration)
I have be tagged by the ATF as a multiple buy on a few occasions, this means I bought five or six gun in one weekend (knob creek gun shows are great) the following week I had an agent call me asked about my purchases, he never knew what models I bought, just that they were rifles, I told him they were collector pieces, we had a brief conversation about them and that was it.
Do it think change is on the horizon, yes, what is it I don't know, but I don't that government agents are going to coming door to door.

I agree with Togwotee, there is a lot of misunderstanding when it comes to gun laws. What I meant to say when I said they banned them was that you could no longer purchase them, big diff and I should have been more clear. Problem is there is so many out there already it does little to stop people who want one from getting one. The issue becomes lack of common sense when people get fired up about guns, their answer is always to get rid of them
Paranoia
Most gun stores are already sold out of ARs & high capacity mags.
Wanna see something crazy? Do a search on ebay for AR-15 30
round magazines, the are going for crazy prices.
Example: Magpul 30rd clip that sold for $15 a week ago is going
for $60 on ebay.
Thinking I should sell my AR & goodies for a steep price!

Here's Ted Nugents opinion on gun control.
The long one (#5) is mine. Lol
my thoughts
I'm a firm believer in training. Our young kids in this day and age can go to walmart and buy video games that they shouldnt have because they dont understand the war games. we rate the games for a reason and parents dont care about the violence that they portray. now they get old enough to buy or pick up their parents real guns and think they can take care of the kids that bully them with the same violence. I love my guns and want more and as long as the wallet will let me I will buy more.
training, training, training. the Military or police force don't recruit people hand them a gun and say good luck. The new recruits get extensive training and then they never stop training. All of us that have been in the military remember bootcamp very well no matter how long its been. my children are 10 and 13 and they have been trained since they were old enough to hold a BB gun about the use and operations of guns and there dangers and the true uses for the weapons. they know the differences between video games and the real thing. TRAINING, TRAINING, TRAINING
When this nation realized that our children were having sex at a younger age we (the nation) put sex education in the schools why not gun education.
Most people that are against guns have never fired one or even held one in their hand.
Rant over

I do not think there will ever be a full out gun ban in the US. I do think, however, there will be a registration process of all owned firearms and an "assault" weapon ban. I'm afraid of the possibility of a registration system. Could lead to heavy fines, jail, open the doors to "searches" etc. for non registered firearms. Once you're in the system who knows what it will lead to.
