The Australian confiscations worked because all guns in Oz were already registered. The police sent letters ordering semi-autos turned in, and that was that. Most owners brought their guns to the police station rather than risk a visit.

Now, what was the overall compliance rate, I don’t know.

Lots of folks think that BATFE Form 4473 is de facto gun registration: the gun is now `papered’. But that would be true only if a law existed that required the owner to report transferring the gun to a new owner whose name would then be recorded as such.

Currently you can freely buy, sell, or transfer guns in private transactions - the so-called “gun show loophole”.

We don’t have a national gun registry - yet. Al Gore ran on that in 2000 and lost. Try getting a Federal gun registration bill through Congress. Such bills usually originate from some crackpot Congressthing in an airtight district, like Rose DeLauro. Most other Dems aren’t that stupid. Not going to happen.

Obama may fuss & fume, but he hasn’t really done anything to send out the flying monkeys. He complained last week that gun sales continue to rise, nobody’s coming to take your guns, I’m leaving office soon, blah blah blah.

Intentions must be backed by capabilities. We should all remember that.
