I like your opinion...
I dissagree with the restoration issue, but thats for others to determine...I just went to bat for someone (family member) to get that right restored...
If I have the slightest inclination it could complicate or endanger him or anyone by his actions...Then I would have fought against him getting that right restored...Thats as brutally honest as I can be...
I agree with you that the automatic suspension due to an R.O. issues to you, to me is rediculous, if it cannot be waived for the specific case it involves it needs to be something that can be instated only if it is a risk, and not just because someone already has firearms before the R.O. was issued...
Some R.O.'s remain in effect for years...How does that help the situation???
And what you said about the folks seeking counseling...That is a private affair and no ones business, unless the evaluator determines that the care needed falls into the medical side of the aisle...If there are (heavy) prescriptions taken...Then yes, I believe some discretion is needed...
And if it were me, and I had something prescribed to me that would alter my ability to responsibly carry a firearm for lawful defensive purposes, then I would think I would have enough good sense to hang them up for a while...
But most of these decisions are made way above our paygrade...And sometimes those folks concern me with the wide net they cast in determining the solutions to these issues...
More to the point: the effect of the R.O. applies in jurisdictions besides that in which the order was filed.
And worse: we've got Quisling-globalist supreme court jurists who feels that Americans should lose their Rights of Citizenship based on the decree of FOREIGN courts as well.... Happily, five of the justices voting ruled that such was not the case. But three did not....
I have a Ruger 10/22, and cannot fathom how this rifle could be banned, as it is about two steps up from a high powered BB gun. Hell, why not ban all BB guns as well?
HEY DEMS - PUT YOUR MONEY WHERE YOUR MOUTH IS: It's either an all or none deal - if a ban is to be put in place, either ban ALL guns or none at all. IF YOU DON'T HAVE THE GONADS TO PROPOSE WHAT YOU REALLY WANT, THEN DROP THE ISSUE!
Of course, an outright ban will never be introduced - they'll just try and take the guns away incrementally until there is no more guns to ban.
Just let em' try, that's all I have to say.
Don't forget a few thousand rounds of ammo per gun...
Keep your powder dry!
What brought you through the valley?
Wanna war b!tch? You got one. Good luck!
My Bride and I have traveled every chance we have been blessed with during our 35 years together. In recent years, we have been on some very long motorcycle trips. I love what I call the "Cowboy States", it's the feeling I get with every moment of the day. I also find these states attractive as we love rodeos.
I like Montana very much and we often try to get off the highways during all of our travels. There just isn't enough time in life to see all the wonders of this planet, even in our own country. We revisit many places because we know that we will see something different each time. We have been to Yellowstone 6 times. Of course, I also love mountains, trees and salt water, so as tempting as it's been to move, I can't.
Your beautiful place was just another adventure along the way. You see, for us, it's not about the destination, it's what you see and experience along the way.
Sounds like you better retire out here someday, this is where cowboys at heart do! Only 11 hour drive to the beautiful Oregon coast.
I am already retired....waiting on the Bride to do the same, but she love her job. Your suggestion is very tempting to me.
I was essentially brought up on the Oregon coast. Every year, without fail, we spend a few days on that coast.

I am surprised that O'Conner wasn't on the side of making foreign convictions applicable.
5.56mm
…and frames, receivers and parts used to repair or refurbish guns.
Say WHAT!!??!!???
I got your answer right here:Baltimore: Air rifles, BB guns would be banned
First a few cities with *progressive* leadership. Then, some states. And then....
well do you want to reach up there to get it back?
