Gun Registry Ping!

Don't know if you want to bother with a blog post. But I think it throws a little interesting light on the gun registry.

These laws are very confusing.

A bunch of Garands and parts won't wind up in the hands of U.S. collectors and shooters. That's the bottom line.

They took 1,000 Garands off of the streets. Probably cost them $1,000,000 per rifle to do it.

Still, 23,000 rifles is pretty impressive. Well, what the Coalition actually said was 23,000 rifles and components:

Yes, 23,000 fewer rifles (or rifle parts) will have a signifcant
impact in a country that has over 7,000,000 rifles and shotguns...
Thanks for keeping our streets safe.
Talk about shiet for brains.......

LOL! Iirc, an awful lot of short barrelled Webleys and the like showed up on gun show tables in the Northern US when the Canadians passed their bit defining the length of pistol barrels, too. All the registry did was make a lot of firearms go 'underground'.

The same would happen here if mandatory registration were to be decreed.
