Good insight. Few have mentioned the "sporting purpose" issue in light of Heller.

There's a lot of philosophizing about Heller cluttering the RKBA sites around the web, but I seem to notice more about 'strict scrutiny' than I see about 'sporting purposes'.

We've always maintained that the Second Amendment is not about duck hunting. The BATFE arbitrarily invents policy with no oversight other than some administrative opinion (unelected and unaccountable) in regards to 'sporting purposes'. Right now, they can just decide whether you go to prison or not on a whim. They write one opinion, send out a useless letter, and then raid a location anyway for reasons that contradict their non-binding little opinions. They need to have this power taken from them in no uncertain terms.

It will change everything.
