Molon Labe: State Bans Popular AR-15 Accessory—Not a Single Person Complies
Freedom Outpost ^ | May 29, 2018 | Rachel Blevins

State police were shocked to find that after banning bump stocks and threatening violators with 5 years in prison, not a single resident has complied.

The state of New Jersey has become the latest to ban bump-stocks for firearms, and despite strict threats to owners who refuse to turn their newly illegal devices over to police, not a single resident has complied with the new law.

The legislation banning the popular A-15 accessory, Senate Bill 3477, went into effect immediately after it was signed into law by Gov. Chris Christie in January, and it gave residents 90 days to “voluntarily surrender any bump stock in their possession to a law enforcement agency.”

The bill criminalizes the possession or sale of “bump stocks,” which it defines as “a device designed to attach to a semi-automatic firearm in order to fire shots in rapid succession in a manner that simulates an automatic firearm.” This new law adds to an existing state law banning guns that have been deemed as “assault rifles.”

That, sir, warms the cockles of my heart! I never met Mike, but he was a true patriot. It is an honor to be lumped in with him in any way.

Suppose the democrats win everything and pass their wet dream legislation making all firearms not in government hands contraband. Now suppose that millions of gun owners bury their weapons and ammo in waterproof dry argon filled containers where the government can’t find them. What’s the effective difference between a buried gun and a confiscated gun? None. You can’t use either one.

>> very draconian laws and few gun owners

Very correct on the first point. Very wrong on the second. There are far more of us here than you think.

I still have my original copy of "The Weapon Shops of Isher" that I got in college in the 1970's.

I somehow lost (or lent out) my original copy...so I bought another one on Amazon.

The book WAS correct - if you cannot buy whatever weapons you’d like to have, then you are not truly free.
