BRASILIA (Reuters) - Brazil's government-elect of Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva will revoke decrees made by President Jair Bolsonaro that have eased access to firearms and is considering banning or taxing guns when it takes office in January, a senior Lula aide said on Wednesday.
Senator-elect Flavio Dino, who leads Lula's transition team for public safety and justice, said the next government will reverse a series of Bolsonaro's executive orders that have weakened gun restrictions and caused a sharp increase in the number of gun owners in the country.
"The revocation will occur... Now, regarding what is going to happen with the existing arsenals, today there are two ideas, one that goes in the fastest direction, which is to say that it is illegal and that's it," Dino said.
The alternative would be shortening the registration period of firearms to one year, "to create tougher, more rigorous taxation, which creates an economic burden for the existing arsenals," he added.
Under Bolsonaro, Brazilians can register as hunters, marksmen or collectors, known as CACs, which allows them to own a variety of gun models, including heavy weaponry formerly legal only to the police and military forces.

Fascists. It’s what they do.
Knowing how government works I’m going to go for the taxation notion.
Guns are already demonized like cigarettes and sugary drinks or alcohol which are common revenue streams nowadays.
Perfect product for taxation claim you will spend the money on police or something like that.
Like Biden...don’t want no opposition
BUILD THE DAMNED WALL !
Just more proff that this cheater is the deep state candidate. The great reset is on the way.
Has the military decided to back the stolen election?
Not yet.....................
Let's just get this over with before I am too old to do anything about it.
Its really hard to get a good sight picture while drooling in a wheelchair ...
I give this communist two months, at the outset. The junta will have the streets cleaned of blood in time for Mardi Gras in Rio.
Existing arsenals? You mean a farmer with a shotgun and a couple boxes of shells? That kind of arsenal? Kinda weird that the Bro-zillion supreme court let lula out of jail and vacated his felony conviction so he could run for (p)resident eh? Not that much different from hear letting known criminals run for office. Just not convicted.
And the lefties want it in America as well. In the words of the late, great Charlton Heston, you can have my gun when you pry it from my cold dead hands.
I am finding it very difficult to find out any information about Brazil other than the World Cup. Seems like it is being shadow banned...oh wait..
As a hobby I am building 2 or 3 AR’s per yr. Current project is an AR9.
“Just more proff that this cheater is the deep state candidate. The great reset is on the way.”
Lula is owned by the CCP.
“Current project is an AR9.”
No AR14s?
The prick is like the Biden of Brazil.
I already built 5 of those. I need to branch out. After the AR9 is done I will build an AR10. The AK platform does not have the 80% lower kit thing so much but I would like to make one of those too. It is actually an enjoyable hobby. AR are amazingly easy to work on.
So Brazilians have about 3 weeks left to stock up on guns and ammo before the civil war starts, that’s what it sounds like to me.
