There is a tremendous amount of energy which is, will be, and has been expended figting the Akins issue, the last AWB, the upcoming AWB II, etc.
If that energy, even a decent fraction of it, were expended on overturning 922(o), we'd be much farther ahead in much less time.
922(o).
One stinkin' sentence.
Get rid of that, and we could have the real M4s, AKs etc. with the happy switch and everything instead of endless snivelling over M4geries, AKSes, etc. and the cosmetics thereof.
They're trying incrementalism, and it works.
Flank 'em.
Overturn 922(o) already.
It's only helpful if Fedgov would follow court rulings.
The money quote from US v. RIA
In sum, since enactment of 18 U.S.C. sec. 922(o), the Secretary has refused to accept any tax payments to make or transfer a machinegun made after May 19, 1986, to approve any such making or transfer, or to register any such machinegun. As applied to machineguns made and possessed after May 19, 1986, the registration and other requirements of the National Firearms Act, Chapter 53 of the Internal Revenue Code, no longer serve any revenue purpose, and are impliedly repealed or are unconstitutional. Accordingly, Counts l(a) and (b), 2, and 3 of the superseding indictment are
DISMISSED.
