This is from the White House itself and Bacrock Obama. Once again he takes a crap on this country and the administration.

I don't complain when he's out golfing. When he's golfing, he isn't fubaring the country.

Yes, because obsolete military rifles are so commonly used in crimes...

•When the United States provides military firearms to its allies, either as direct commercial sales or through the foreign military sales or military assistance programs, those firearms may not be imported back into the United States without U.S. government approval. Since 2005, the U.S. Government has authorized requests to reimport more than 250,000 of these firearms.
•Today, the Administration is announcing a new policy of denying requests to bring military-grade firearms back into the United States to private entities, with only a few exceptions such as for museums. This new policy will help keep military-grade firearms off our streets.

Once again, laser focused on law abiding gun owners.

Someone in the administration needs to tell us how many crimes are committed with M1 Garands before they can shut down their importation.

Buying an SBR, full auto, sound suppressor, etc., without a gun trust, does NOT require a background check. It requires a sign off from your chief law enforcement officer which he is not required give, ever, to anyone. That is why people started using gun trusts in the first place. Regardless of background check those things are registered by serial number and I challenge anyone to provide proof that legally registered NFA weapons are used in any significant number of crimes.

Current law places special restrictions on many of the most dangerous weapons, such as machine guns and short-barreled shotguns. These weapons must be registered, and in order to lawfully possess them, a prospective buyer must undergo a fingerprint-based background check. However, felons, domestic abusers, and others prohibited from having guns can easily evade the required background check and gain access to machine guns or other particularly dangerous weapons by registering the weapon to a trust or corporation. At present, when the weapon is registered to a trust or corporation, no background check is run. ATF reports that last year alone, it received more than 39,000 requests for transfers of these restricted firearms to trusts or corporations. Today, ATF is issuing a new proposed regulation to close this loophole. The proposed rule requires individuals associated with trusts or corporations that acquire these types of weapons to undergo background checks, just as these individuals would if the weapons were registered to them individually. By closing this loophole, the regulation will ensure that machine guns and other particularly dangerous weapons do not end up in the wrong hands.


I suspect this isn’t about background checks, it’s about the CLEO signature that can be hard to get in some areas.

That'll stop criminals dead in their tracks. Because no one would EVER want to fail to register their weapon before using it in a crime.

Better get your Garand from CMP before they run out.
