Lets hope.

You will have to pay the tax when you buy projectiles unless you can make your own ?

You fellows are funny. Better get your cast moulds for your .223 and .308 calibers so you can make your bullets and also some lead core. Save your 22 lr cases because you will need it to swage your lead core and make some decent bullets for your .223 that will run over 2000fps because that is pushing gas checks. Certain your primers will not be taxed, you probably know a way to keep the drone planes from zeroing in on your supplies and have a source to manufacture your own primers. Underground with the primer manufacturers, got my own pipeline. Powder, well. certainly no one will notice you digging in your back yard. Since the government has planes to detect marijuana growth in home basements I'm certain the lead shields with which you have lined your walls , better make that zinc, will shield you. Fortunately you will have supressors for all your guns and your neighbors will all be loyal gun supporters so you will not have to worry about them reporting you for a bounty.

First rule of a prepper, don't let anyone know what you have or where you have it. No one.

Man, I saw this movie before. I'm still sitting on the ammo that I bought 4 years ago. In the next 3-4 months as things calm down prices will start coming down. Also can somebody tell me how the government will track who owns the guns so they can confiscate them? Last time I checked there was no registration requirements for individuals who owns guns except class 3 weapons.As a side note I hold FFL licenses various times in my life so I know how the system works.
Gun industry should vote Obama man of the year. Period.

Do you think every gun owner/hunter vote for Romney?
This is a totally different situation. In case you don't realize there are a lot of gun owners out there who voted for Obama but won't except restrictions on guns.

For everyone's sake, I hope that the article author is correct.

I pray the author is correct.

Because if he's not......we're going to have a civil war the likes of which has never been seen.

When Hurricane Katrina occurred, the police went door to door confiscating firearms. That is one way they could do it. (or try)

Look it up. Plenty of youtube videos on what happened there.

I see great opportunities for black market ammo sales.

Whenever the government seeks to ban ANYTHING, all it does is create a new criminal class.

We've seen it with alcohol prohibition and drugs. The same thing will happen with guns and ammo. Only....you won't see just semi-auto rifles and pistols. If you are going to go to prison for having one of those, then you may as well go to prison for having a grenade launcher....or an RPG....or a full-on machine gun.

A gun ban will do nothing but escalate the arms race.

How many full auto guns, grenade launchers, RPG's do you think there are on the streets in the USA right now? I'll bet not many.

Look at Mexico. How many do you suppose there are on the streets there?

Well said, the first felony is the expensive one. After that, they're all free.

This is what happened in Mexico. First 'military' caliber firearms were outlawed, then confiscated. This caused the 38 Super Auto +P to become the most popular handgun cartridge, since 45 ACP was used by the military.

They will try and try to pass it but I really think the people are going to stand up this time finally and say enough is enough. Well hopefully!

That is so very true! If they can't stop illegal drugs, they're going to so much more successful with "illegal" guns? I do think an assault weapons ban will pass and we will see a California style 10-round magazine limitation. I only hope we get existing firearms and magazines grandfathered without the NFA/ registration requirement proposed. This is a different country than it was 10 years ago folks. The election of a president with failed policies during an economic crisis is proof of that. We have dumbed down our people and rewarded laziness. Even many of the people who wanted change didn't turn out to vote. Do you think those same folks are gonna raise up against the gun control liberals now? Apathy is our biggest foe these days.

No, they won't rise up against the gun control liberals. Not until they've slowly eroded away their second amendment right and the problems have started on their street or on their doorstep. Then it will probably be too late...for them.
