magley64 Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 http://news.yahoo.com/obama-offers-gun-control-steps-135409085--politics.html Striving to take action where Congress would not, the Obama administration announced new steps Thursday on gun control, curbing the import of military surplus weapons and proposing to close a little-known loophole that lets felons and others circumvent background checks by registering guns to corporations.

chevysoldier Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 "One new policy will end a government practice that lets military weapons, sold or donated by the U.S. to allies, be reimported into the U.S. by private entities, where some may end up on the streets. The White House said the U.S. has approved 250,000 of those guns to be reimported since 2005; under the new policy, only museums and a few other entities like the government will be eligible to reimport military-grade firearms."Let's give guns to other countries but our own people shouldn't have them. And the government can be trusted to buy imports but not the people represented. Got it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbot Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 i'm pretty sure the fire arms industry gave him a couple bucks and said, "do an EO like we talked about last time and get a blip on the panic radar again". now, "sell" some more machine guns to egypt, afghanistan, and iraq, barry... daddy needs a new building.

Becuase you have to be a "teabagger" to dislike Obama, infringement of the 2nd amendment and bullshit executive orders? Don't ever call yourself a Libertarian again. I find it insulting.

baptizo Posted August 31, 2013 Report Share Posted August 31, 2013 Anyone who can't figure out what the Tea Party truly stands for without resorting to stupid name calling in a lame attempt at using their "intelligence" is in reality a socialist kool-aid drinking fucktard. A Libertarian this one is not.....a Magtard he is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReconRat Posted August 31, 2013 Report Share Posted August 31, 2013 (edited) The last time off shore mil spec imports were banned, the production moved to the USA. It was a boost to the economy and a boost to the American gun market. Very probable the same will happen this time as well. Conversely, the previous ban covered this, and not many exceptions were made. This closes those exceptions, I guess. Till another administration's executive order changes it. edit: The registering to corporation? Don't care. Most of it was movie studios wanting authentic firearms. And companies renting to movie studios. And they have plenty of stock already. (And they probably could get an exception anyway, again.)

The trust route is widely used for suppressors, short barrels and machine guns. I allows anyone listed on the trust to take the item to the range. When you pass away you get taken off the trust. With out it who ever is in possession of the item when you pass is now commeting a felony, and has to pay another 200 dollars and do another transfer. Have a sheriff that things only his boys should have access to suppressors etc. Now your out of luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose it's still there, only going to wait even longer now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
