The federal manpower will be used for "shock and awe" against a small select group of high profile 2nd Amendment proponents to intimidate the sheeple to surrender their arms.

The real federal power against gun owners will be economic. Just like those who have avoided purchasing medical insurance, once the fed finds outs, it will retain your annual IRS tax refund. Now expand that strategy to what the IRS does to tax cheats - seizure of bank accounts and property. Add to that denial of Social Security and VA benefits. Few will be able to withstand that level of oppression.

Remember, 100% compliance with firearm surrender is not necessary for government tyranny to prevail.

Point taken, but when that starts I guess we’ll all find out who’s selling wolf tickets and who isn’t.

I’m dying free.

If one has nothing left to lose, one should make the most of it. Unintended consequences and all.
