One way is increasing the number of crimes to felonies, adding ‘domestic violence’ to the list of things they can take your guns away on. Basically making you violate the laws unknowingly and then using that as an excuse to disarm people for things that have nothing to do with guns.

Second way is going after law abiding folks exercising their gun rights, like what is going on in West Allis WI right now where the guy is open carrying in his yard doing yard work and the cops come at him at gunpoint. Took his gun away.

Someone somewhere knows you have those guns. If you bought them at a store, their records can be searched and you are found out. If someone else gave them to you, the people who gave them to you, if they (being the last known owners) were ever questioned about where the gun was, would tell authorities you have them or go to jail.

If anyone around you knows you own guns, they could report you and you would become a candidate for a late night raid.

They are not doing that currently except to small time criminals, to hone their skills, but there could be a time when people will start being asked where their guns are so they can be confiscated. If you don’t turn em in during the grace period.

Anyone who hates you could (whether they know it or not) just say you had weapons and the cops would go and check it out.

Good! So far you’ve found no flaws with my situation.

The people that gave them to me are now deceased.
I keep my business to myself and am single.
99% of my girlfriends never knew I had weapons.

Now, if they go to extreme measures and check up on anyone whose signed in to a firing range, they may learn.
But, that puts me way down on the list of people to come after. And by then, other citizens will have thinned the numbers of would be confiscators.

You are correct, and that list was fairly comprehensive. I know that TN has a destroy law after one year as far as records of sale go.

Here in Florida, If you use a gun to protect yourself or stop a violent crime, they take your gun. I know I have seen it happen...Oh yea.. you don’t get them back.
