This is why I never joined the NRA. I suspect that the government has the NRA membership list and will go after them first.

You don’t think the gov’t can figure out your Internet Protocol address?

What difference does that make? Man up. The Revolution wasn’t won by folks who hid their guns.If the goobermint ever starts confiscating anything from private residences, do you think your 2A rights are all you have lost? It will have been PAST time to fight then.

wise choice.

If they don't, I wouldn't be at all surprised if the NRA supplied the list voluntarily... with appropriate cover of course.

And why I never applied for a CHL or took a course, and why I don't hang around gun shops or ranges, where the ATF slugs lurk.

If I showed up at a range with something interesting like a Steyr precision rifle or even an SVD, much less a .50-cal. turnbolt, my license plate would be over at ATF before you can say "sic 'em, Dan-O!"

If you buy ammo they know, let alone that pesky form you fill out when you buy a gun.

You have to sign in at most ranges. They track purchases made with credit, debit or check.

They know you have firearms and more so I refuse to hide. I’m proud to be a gun owner especially with my new sig 226 .40 cal elite dark nitron with the short reset trigger and night sights.

I have a hard time believing that the state of Georgia (mine), Alabama, Texas, Louisiana, ... are going to willfully assist the Feds in going door-to-door to collect guns from anyone. An outright confiscation has no chance of passing and even less chance of succeeding. It may take 2 or 3 individuals fighting back to kick off the resistance, but I have little doubt it will occur. Given the weak state of our economy and the mess in Europe that could be the catalyst to bring down the whole house of cards.

I can not imagine the House ever passing such a ban let alone confiscation. Even Congress is not that dumb!!
