He legally can’t do it.

The author doesn’t understand what the NFA is. They would have to create a class for semi-automatic firearms through an act of Congress for the NFA before he could do it as semi-auto firearm do not fit into any current catagory.

However, if he did do so, contrary to Federal law...he’d have to offer a general amnesty of the NFRTR including machine guns. He cannot do a limited Amnesty as that is outlawed specifically in the 1968 GCA. Only a General Amnesty of the NFRTR is authorized except by an act of Congress. He dares not open that door.

I DARE the administration to go down this road. We’ll have an end to the MG ban and a few other nice little things that the anti’s wet their panties just thinking about.

Such voices of reason and knowledge need to be repeated, hence the quote from my friend BCR’s post.

Sounds like he knows what he is talking about.
