The situation is worse than that. That law is used to justify the entire Federal Firearms License system which imposes prior restraint on the purchase of new firearms.
This in turn was used in California to justify registration of virtually all firearms as well as the restrictions on so-called “assault weapons”.
Finally, this entire scheme has now led to a requirement that background checks be required for ammunition purchases.
All of these infringements are justified by anti-gunners by their presumed ability to deny guns to people who should be in prison.

Very interesting statement. After looking at it I had the thought, there are more people running around loose that ought to be in prison for treason and other high crimes, than there are people in prison for other crimes. That would be a pot load, but knowing the depths of the present obvious depravity of the left, and some of the right who are in league with the left. I don’t think there would be much argument.
