Their first step, of course, will be charging Trump and family with crimes against humanity and spiriting them away to Gitmo or Libya or into insane asylums...
After 8 years of BHO, we are living in a post-Constitutional republic. Just look at Gov. "Baby-Killer"'s record in VA during 2020. The Dem statehouse passed 7 of the 8 anti-gun laws he advocated. The only 1 that failed was the banning of assault-style weapons, i.e., semi-auto rifles.
The tool to advance gun confiscation has been with us since 1968, AATF Form 4473. All the DemonRats in Congress have to do is pass a national firearm registry bill. Then just digitally process the ATF Form 4473s into the registry. Records can be unreliable, but this process does not have to be accurate to be effective.
Confiscation will not require Fed/ state Brown Shirts coming to your door. That would create drama and resistance and they will likely want to avoid that except in high profile cases to set examples to intimidate the sheeple.
The simple approach would be to use the financial stick.
1. Organize firearm collection depots for citizens to voluntarily surrender their registered firearms.
2. Establish a deadline for volunteer surrender.
3. After this drop-dead date, announce financial penalties to be assessed against citizens who still have their registered weapons.
4. Delegate the IRS for enforcement = freeze bank accounts, SS checks, Medicare/Medicaid benefits, tax refunds, etc.
Alternatively, as John Lott Jr. says, Fedzilla could bleed gun owners with the death of a thousand little cuts.
1. Impose an annual registration fee.
2. Mandate liability insurance.
3. Compulsory annual inspections of safe storage facilities and ownership licenses.
4. Mandate firearm training courses that have to be re-newed every 3 years. 5. Impose additional taxes on firing ranges to be passed onto shooters.
6. Impose additional taxes on firearms to cover E-room GSW expenses.
7. Impose additional taxes on ammounition to cover E-room GSW expenses.
