He can't do much without a willing Congress, and Congress isn't willing. IIRC, 66 rats in the House signed a letter to Holder telling him to forget about renewing an "assault weapon" ban.

People are not buying guns because they fear bans.

they are trying to control ammunition.. a gun is useless without it. People are buying guns because people know something stinks and that things just dont feel right.

I suppose that's possible, but a lot of people already bought the guns they want, and in this economy, who can afford to buy yet another one?

That would only create a thriving black market with much stiffer penalties for informants than say, the current marijuana market.

Drugs are illegal, so are invaders from other countries, and they haven't really slowed any of that down, do they really think they can stop guns?

Earle Stanley Gardner, the author of all the old Perry Mason novels was reputed to have a collection of homemade firearms, some rather sophisticated (not your average zip gun).

They going to start regulating machine tools and metal stock next?

Obama is not going to ban guns.

That what his panel of Czars is for. :)

“That would only create a thriving black market”

It would create the second American Revoltion.

If Maurice Hinchey votes for a ban, look for an exemption for members of Congress!

That’s why my 27 July ammo order from Cabela’s hasn’t filled yet....

No worries....I’m full up in 7 calibers.
The backorder is just to cover my practice needs.

Because he’s a Liberal, and all our recent Liberal Presidents have instituted gun bans: Bill Clinton, George H.W. Bush...

I bought a 45 beretta in January because of a fear of bans. Great gun!

I am getting a Colt Delta Elite 10-mm. The rounds from this baby hit like a truck.

“They’ll NEVER take away our guns.”

Any rational person who realizes that an estimated 300-million guns are owned by our citizens and that trying to take them away is suicide.
