Can’t think of anything I want right at the moment. My dream list includes a Colt-manufactured 1921 Thompson in 99% condition.

TX advocating civil disobedience. No other options since Congress forgot we’re out here and has no memory of any Constitution.

“People in attendance said it may be because folks want to buy a firearm before President Barack Obama issues an executive order requiring background checks for more gun sales and increasing reporting requirements for lost or stolen guns”

Why rush these places? Just ignore the jackass and buy gun like you normally do.

U.S. military cargo planes gave 50 tons of ammunition to rebel groups overnight in northern Syria, ... dropped small arms ammunition and other items like hand grenades in Hasakah province in northern Syria

He doesn’t have the Constitutional authority to legislate—that is, make law. His only authority is to enforce the law, as written and signed by him—or override his objection, but he cannot make it law himself.

Again, he doesn’t have the authority to make a single law. No one has to obey! I’m sure a bunch of panty-waists will shrug their shoulders and do what he wants, but the rest of us need to show some backbone.

Impeach!

Obama wants to disarm EVERYONE, except the criminals and of course himself. If Obama is serious about banning guns he should disarm his secret service detail first, oh look at that I made a funny

"He said he doesn't think business for his gun shows will be affected if the executive order is issued because his sellers are licensed and he doesn't deal too much with small-scale sellers."

Likely 98% meaningless gesture so he can retire to the golf links and speech circuit saying he "did something", no matter how stupid.

If I want to give my daughter one of my guns I need to do it through a FFL because she lives across the river in another state. It's been that way since 1968.

I'm happy I own stock in S&W and Ruger, though!

I can't vouch for the following, because I just don't know if it's true. Maybe someone here can verify or refute what follows:

In 1952, the Supreme Court, in Youngstown Sheet & Tube Co. v. Sawyer, ruled that Presidential EO's may not "make law".

This puts significant limits on what can be done using an Executive Order.

Generally speaking, an EO can clarify the enforcement of an existing law, prioritize the execution of the law, or otherwise direct the activities of executive branch agencies. If Congress disagrees with an EO, they can simply pass legislation to make the directives in the EO illegal. Alternatively, states or private citizens may challenge the EO in federal court.

For example, creating new background checks, new waiting periods, or creating bans on the sale of particular firearms/clips is outside the scope of an executive order.

An EO can direct the activities of federal agencies and law enforcement. For example, an EO could instruct all federal agencies to prioritize existing gun control regulations over other activities or change the way existing backgrounds are performed.

An EO can also be used to change or create regulations in areas that executive branch agencies already have jurisdiction. For example, the Department of Commerce has significant discretion in the creation and application of import and interstate commerce regulations (under the authority granted by Congress). They could categorize certain items into new categories that limit their sale or create significant obstacles to their import or sale. Or, they could change the licensing requirements for the sale and importation of certain products.

The irony is they’re all buying from (probably) dealers who NICS check them anyway...

The counters at Sportsmanswarehouse in Pocatello were thick with customers. The inventory was looking a bit thin. Didn't see anything I wanted on the shelves. The indoor range had a wait list for lanes (AGAIN) this Sunday afternoon. The subzero temperatures Thursday->Saturday made the 100 mile round trip unappealing. My wife and I shared a lane today. I put 30 rounds in a 3 inch group at 21 ft with my "carry". It's not a target competition firearm.

Jeb! announced he was going to visit the Orlando Gun show yesterday but didn’t show up.

He would have been eaten alive by the Trump and Cruz crowd had he attended.
