You could transfer 50 rounds of ammo in just minutes on the range with family and friends. That's just ridiculous! These Senators are idiots.
“We’re going to have to take one step at a time,
and the first step is necessarily — given the
political realities — going to be very modest .
So then we’ll have to start working again to
strengthen the law, and then again to strengthen
the next law, and maybe again and again.
Right now, though, we’d be satisfied not with half
a loaf but with a slice.
Our ultimate goal — total control of handguns in
the United States — is going to take time ....
The first problem is to slow down the increasing
number of guns being produced and sold in this
country.
The second problem is to get handguns registered.
And the final problem is to make the possession
of *all* handguns and *all* handgun ammunition —
except for the military, policemen, licensed
security guards, licensed sporting clubs, and
licensed gun collectors — totally illegal.” —
Pete Shields, Chairman Emeritus, Handgun Control, Inc.
