The Constitution forbids the Congress, that is, the legislative branch, from passing any laws infringing on gun ownership.

Actually "doctor", it simply says "shall not be infringed". It doesn't mention by who at all. Lacking the 1st Amendments specificity, Art 6 paragraph 2's scope applies as does the 10th Amendments provisos.

IOW, an EO infringing RKBA is equally as unConstitutional as damn near every piece of Federal legislation going back to, and including, the NFA of '34.

We must keep in mind the intent of law as well as some limitations the Founding Fathers did instill(wisely)or luckily, sometimes the same thing. These two Bill of Rights:
Article the eleventh [Amendment IX]
The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.
Article the twelfth [Amendment X]/p>
The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.
The 9th amendment stating in plain english The enumeration(listing) in the Constitution shall NOT be construed(given meaning or intention of) to deny(withhold the possession of) or disparage(depreciate or belittle) others(rights) retained by the People.
And the Tenth Powers not directly delegated to the U.S. shall be retained by the States, or to the people.
My point is no where in the Constitution does it give the Executive Branch the right to circumvent the Bill of Rights with or without the approval of Congress. Only by direct amendment and specifically outlining those powers to the Executive branch could any such Presidential order be enforced. Unless of course he did it and no one resisted or challenged the orders validity.
