Donald Trump has put his Second Amendment position on his web page for the 2016 election cycle. The positions put forward are not new or bizarre. They follow the Donald pattern of political positions that are enormously popular, but which have been declared non-viable by political correctness and the Washington Cartel.
Donald Trump, once again, ignores the political taboos created by the ruling elite to prevent the electorate from enacting changes that the electorate desires, but the elite fears.
Here is a summation of the Donalds Second Amendment positions. You can go to Trumps site, donaldtrump.com, and read them yourself.

People tell me he’s a Liberal.
I don’ thin’ so, Lucy.
I was “Cruz only” until just this second. Trumps position here was the ticket for me.
If Sarah Palin supports Trump that is good enough for me. Trump/Cruz
This is something that he has changed on too. He used to have the N.E. culture liberal bias against gun ownership. I give him credit for examining and re-evaluating this issue.
I think he started with many of the cultural prejudices of his city. He is actually coming to grips with broader and deeper issues than he has in the past, and for the most part he is moving to some solid ground.
Here is how Trump evolved on the Second Amendment.

Has been a lifetime NRA member for years as are both of his adult sons.
No doubt. You know up to now I haven't trusted Trump and have been cool to him but things like this are definitely warming me up!
That’s great, as long as he holds the same views after being elected.
MarkTwain, what you have to realize before anything else is that Trump made comments and donations before.
That’s it.
Please don’t mention anything else to us.
We can no longer listen to him, read his positions, or think of anything other than what he has done in the past.
We study the worst from then, and ignore anything good.
We cannot listen now.
As political intellectuals we cannot listen to new information. Our mind is made up.
Nothing Trump can say or do will mean anything to us.
He can champion our causes until completion.
He can champion our causes so that the nation wakes up.
He can champion our causes with the exact words we do.
He can actually cause change for good now. So what? It doesn’t matter.
When we do something, it’s good.
When he does the very same thing, it’s very very bad.
He has actually held a job in the private sector. Not only that, he hasn’t held public office before. How can he be qualified to lead, to govern, to be presidential?
He just doesn’t have the experience.
He was born with a ‘golden’ spoon in his mouth. He lost it all in an economic downturn. It means nothing that he wound up increasing the original value of that golden spoon one thousand times.
He is loud. He is obnoxious. He is very popular. His poll numbers are very very good.
Now, if only he would drop out so someone else who agrees with our views can run for and lose the nomination to another Leftist.
Until he does, I’m going to be very very unhappy.
Go Bush/Fiorina 2016.
He's a bigger flip-flopper than Romney.
Some people cannot be happy unless they are complaining./S
Post 7 has a link to his history, what he said and when.
Well since the criminal thugs want the wild west.... We should be allowed to give it to them. It’s gone way too far and only we the people can clean up this mess at this point.
They'll go, all right...to the same place as McCain and Romney. That ticket is a guaranteed win for Hillary or whoever the Rats nominate. Even if they won, it's a win for the Demopublican Establishment and a loss for America.
Seems to me, if you are going to make a deal, it’s smart to start high, then you have something to give away:)) There was another article complaining that this plan was unattainable. This is my answer to that guy and anyone else who criticizes Trump’s policies without understanding this;/
Agreed...
...with no /s.
Exactly
I’m hoping for a Trump/Cruz ticket.
