Re: The Gun Thread

I'm trying to hope that a complete AR ban will not happen, but maybe they will focus on the mag size or putting other restrictions on how one purchases a gun.

The questionnaire in my view was pretty flimsy to fill out for a permit, and even though I had one you have to fill out a very similar form now at the gun store as well as go through the background check. And this was just for the .22lr I picked up.

I support making it a tad harder for people to get the guns, but banning them I hope does not happen.

Think about it, an AR ban will not solve anything. Someone can just strap on a few more glocks and mags and get the same results.

That being said, I'll probably try to pick up an AR sometime in Jan as long as I'm able to and the price hasn't gone up that much. I want to think the market will settle and the current buy up is a knee jerk reaction. If it's not, no big deal, I won't subject myself to overpaying for something like that. I'll enjoy plinking away with my .22 for a fraction of the cost.
