The same day Donald Trump's campaign cancelled his appearance at the Heritage Action Presidential Forum, the candidate released a policy paper on his plan to expand gun rights Friday.
The paper, dubbed "Protecting Our Second Amendment Rights Will Make America Great Again," calls for an end to gun and magazine bans and nationwide concealed carry permits.
Trump's plan would also end the ban on carrying guns on military bases and recruiting centers, presumably a response to the July shootings at military sites in Chattanooga, Tenn. that left four Marines dead.

Oh, but Trump offers no specifics. /leftist trolls even here
But,but,but he’s not a conservative.
Unelectable.
This is total BS. Trump will drop out soon as he’s just a stalking horse liberal for hillary, just ask nc and hp.
That’s actually a pretty good pic of Mr Trump. Can anyone identify the type of rifle he’s holding with the beautiful polished wood stock?
I was so impressed by his position paper, I donated $50 to his campaign.
The nutters over at talkingpointsmemo aren’t nearly so enthused.
I believe Teddy Rosevelt called it “big medicine”.
That position paper says everything I need to know. Its very explicit. Short and simple.
position paper is good. couldn’t be clearer.
WRONG.... what guns I have is none of the federal givernments business.. Guns kill nobody... People do..
Guns also rob no one.. abuse no one..
Guns are machines.. nives' as well..
TRUMP is showing his democrat side...
it's leaking out..
I like Trump’s position on our Second Amendment. He may not be considered a 100% conservative like Cruz, but if elected Trump says he will roll back Obama’s tear down of America. I doubt most others we saw in CNN’s stage will do that.
Seems like Trump has this policy correct
Yeah him and Ronald Reagan
NATIONAL RIGHT TO CARRY.
“The right of self-defense doesn’t stop at the end of your driveway. That’s why I have a concealed carry permit and why tens of millions of Americans do too. That permit should be valid in all 50 states. A driver’s license works in every state, so it’s common sense that a concealed carry permit should work in every state. If we can do that for driving – which is a privilege, not a right – then surely we can do that for concealed carry, which is a right, not a privilege.”
STE=Q
You didn’t read his policy paper. He is NOT calling for the feds to do anything. He is merely calling for reciprocity.

I repeat it’s NONE of the federal givernments business what I do with guns..
NONE.. ZIp.. nada.. nothing.. IT’S A RIGHT... NOT a privilege.. that can be rescinded..
NO-NO.. no touchy.. mind their OWN business.. not mine..
Government over reach.. Rogue federal givernment..
Out of control Gov’t.. Central government UN-constitutional hanky panky..
