A man after my own heart. I have written my pols, the NRA and GOA to propose the following "common sense" gun laws (tongue very faintly in cheek):
1) Allow CCW holders to have guns shipped directly to them as long as they send in a signed 4473 (that can be addressed later - small steps, small steps). The holder has already been photographed and fingerprinted, plus passed the state and federal background checks, so this should be a no-brainer. Presently the law is just another costly hindrance.
2) Allow CCW holders to buy handguns in other states for the reasons stated above.
These others use the liberals' "throw everything at the wall and settle for one" proposal:
3) Reduce the 30-day holding requirement for a failed background check down to one - or none.
4) Allow direct shipment of modern-made replicas of any gun under the BATF's 50-year rule. Why should gun buyers have to jump through modern gun hoops to buy a single shot 45-70 Springfield or Sharps? (The lever actions can come later under the small steps approach).
Counter-proposals like these will have the libs running around and screaming in horror. Good. Perhaps it will blunt some of their anti-gun efforts and even scare some of 'em into thinking they'd better not propose any new laws as "look what the other side wanted the last time we tried", i.e. leave sleeping dogs alone.
Well done!
