‘If they are sent to help collect your firearms, what are you going to do to resist the ones who don’t refuse the order to do so?’

Of course we’d have quite a bit of notice of such a thing, the debates would be furious within the Congress, and state by state as well. I don’t see how you get around the existing laws barring the military from being used in such a manner.

“What do you expect them to do to any resistance they meet?”

I think you’d see a rebellion....within the ranks of the military, long before that ever came to pass.
