What’s next? Close the gunshow loophole via executive order?

The only way I could aford a rifle right now is if somebody gave me one... with ammo.

I almost sold the guns I had... ummm, I mean I DID sell the guns I had, I no longer have them, no sir!

I was unemployed for 6 months and I have a mountain of debt that needs to be pared down... but then, that’s too much info. :-)

As you know, it really isn’t about ‘the border’, it’s about federal oligarchy control over the people, to protect the federal oligarchs from the people.

BTW, it shows the abject stupidity of rth federal oligarchs that they have elft open the unlimited purchase and training with .17 caliber, which is already a superior varmint round at great distances ... think head shots.

This wouldn’t be legal. The law requires special reporting only for multiple handgun sales.

I pray the NRA sues and seeks an emergency injunction against implementation.

The people need to start standing up against the Obammunists ruling by decree.

The NRA cares more about power and money than about the 2A.

We need a grass roots gun organization similar to the Tea Party Movement.

an emergency request requiring border-area gun dealers

Step two is to declare that the "border-area" extends to the great lakes.


The Great Lakes border Canada so there's your intentional border.

A few years ago some UN bureaucrat declared rifles with telescopic sights in a standard cailber to be “medium range sniper weapons that ought to be banned”. She sneeringly told hunters to “get interested in something else”.

Works for me. My main interest involving firearms has shifted from mainly hunting to “defense of certain inalienable rights”.

Tons of ‘em at the gun show this weekend, between $89 and $120 a piece. Cheap ammo, too.

Feh. I don’t think the gun runners are going to the gun dealers and meekly asking for federal approval. They’re either stealing them, or buying them hot. This kind of crap never goes against the criminal, only against the law abider who does what they say.

better to shut down the BATFE. Another useless gov’t agency out of control and trampling on freedom and liberty.

What price did you see on the ammo?
Here: $99 for a can of 440.

If the Republicans were smart, they would be addressing this issue in front of rolling TV cameras!

Another “emergency” built on a foundation of lies, damn lies.

The traitor in the White house won’t protect our boarders, but it’s just fine to disarm Americans.... FUBO, you damn bustard.

That was the best price I saw at the show. A couple of vendors were a little higher. Cheaper Than Dirt has the same sardine cans around the same price, under $100.

This is gun registration, plain and simple.

We’ve been fighting gun registration for almost 50 years. Every year we beat it, and then every year it comes back again. I swear these gun grabbers are the living dead.

Call your Congressmen. Demand they stop it. Tell them your vote is only two years away, as if they needed a reminder; but then again, perhaps they do!

What amazes me is in this age of instant communication we seem unable to come together to fight tyranny and get this country back to the constitution.

How on earth did the founders find enough like minded people without the Internet as that had to wait for Al Gore to invent it.

Everyday I hope this government will not push us further away from the constitution and erosion of our individual rights and every day I am disappointed in both the government and in Americans who refuse to stand their constitutional grounds.
