We should be eliminating gun laws, not accepting small advances of the leftist agenda.

A resounding yes on that. We should be demanding less intrusion in all aspects by the “authorit-I’s”. Leave me alone! If I need your help, I’ll let you know.

Exactly right. At the federal, state, and local level, our goal should be to repeal bad laws against the possession or appropriate use of firearms. The laws on silencers are unnecessary, just a source of tax revenue and delays. Many other restrictions are silly, and those that serve no purpose should be repealed. That is where we need to take the Second Amendment fight, not to the trenches where we try to defend what we have against the steady encroachment of the far left but to them - we should attack and take back our God-given constitutional rights, rather than merely defend.

I'd also favor restoring Second Amendment rights to convicted felons, with the delay based on the specific felony and time elapsed without another felony conviction (perhaps never for armed robbery and similar crimes, but at some point for non-violent felonies).

Problem is that there are too many squishy politicians who are all to willing to nickel and dime our freedoms away.
