That, or he’s a successful lobbyist who excels at memo-writing, politicking with the right politicians, punches the right tickets, and made sure the troops under his command looked good on inspection. Not everyone rises based on merit.

I acknowledge that and agree...
However, my point was, the full-auto M-4’s and M-16’s the troops use would be illegal to own in the USA...due to being new production. Am I reading the 1986 law correctly?

Dear Retired General,

Your former military service record has been noted.

Your vocalized input on the matter of my Constitutional Rights, (which by the way, you swore an Oath to defend and protect - with no expiration date I might add), has been duly noted, and has been downloaed to the nearest galactic circular bit bucket for future reference.

The Second Amendment expresses the basic right for self-preservation against any form of tyrannical, traitorous government, like the one towards that you are adjoining yourself.

I think I’ll go with your explanation, GenX.
