The provisions you cite are export controls, and export control lists. The treaty (by my reading) does not require any regulation of domestic weapon ownership, nor does it require any sort of registry. A “control list” is not a registry, it’s basically a classification document.

So, if you send a bullet outside our borders is that technically an "export" by any of the definitions of the word export?

ex·port   /v. ɪkˈspɔrt, -ˈspoʊrt, ˈɛkspɔrt, -spoʊrt;
n., adj. ˈɛkspɔrt, -spoʊrt/ Show Spelled[v. ik-spawrt, -spohrt, ek-spawrt, -spohrt; n., adj. ek-spawrt, -spohrt] Show IPA verb (used with object)

1. to ship (commodities) to other countries or places for sale, exchange, etc.

2. to send or transmit (ideas, institutions, etc.) to another place, especially to another country.

3. Computers . to save (documents, data, etc.) in a format usable by another software program.

So, where in that UN document are quantities listed?

And where does it say that the simple definition of ship/send to another place is a definition that a lawyer will never use.

And where, after John Roberts' twisting the constitution into his own personal pretzel a few weeks back, is the section that says a judge or lawyer can't make this mean pretty much whatever they want?

And, finally, do you trust our judges?
