At first, I thought this was about restoring Second Amendment rights to veterans deemed unfit by the VA to handle their financial affairs even though they were not considered a threat to themselves or others.

When I was a kid you could buy any of those so called war relict's out of the back of magazines for a few bucks. The gun that killed JFK sold for 16.00 with the scope. I do not know how they could prove where it came from not that it matters. The atf can charge any old vet they wish, the jury would laugh them out of the court house.

Is this concerning full-auto weapons?

I'm not a big fan of war trophies, as it smacks of plunder.

That being said. It was legal. The window to register them to comply with the stamp act was criminally short, and they should get to keep them.

In fact, the entire '33 and '68 laws should be repealed, with amnesty for those that were convicted under them.

Evil, freedom stealing laws....

I have a LOT of questions about this bill.

Will it be like the '68 amnesty? Will or will not the veterans have to pay the $200 tax on applicable NFA items?

Will the NFA weapons become transferable, or will be be ineligible for transfer since they were registered after May 19, 1986 (end of machine gun manufacture for civilians in US)?

What is there to keep Holder and his minions from accosting any veteran who registers a bringback?

Here is THE reference site for NFA information and history.

For recent post on this topic go to.

For those who are seriously interested in the topic, you can look up post on prior introductions of this bill.
It has slowly been gaining acceptance, too bad BATFE (ATF) has drug their feet in implementing this without the necessity of new legislation.
The could do so at any time, were it not for their anti-RKBA bias.

The original ‘68 “Amnesty” was in fact criminally poorly done, deliberately.
The ‘68 “Amnesty” only happened because ATF LOST a court case, the “Amnesty” was their cover to continue prosecuting American citizens for exercising their constitutional RIGHT.

Look around NFAOA and you can learn a LOT about the NFA Act, and it’s consequences.
