I'm sure the libs have legislation they have been sitting on since after they got shut down last time. I heard the legislation looked at targeting everything from uppers to currently owned guns/ammo, mags, ammo, etc.
Same deal this time or will there be a different approach? My hope is this loses momentum within the week. -Emt1581 |

I've thought for a long time that they would go after one of the components of ammunition.
Tax or regulate it until it's almost impossible to obtain. |

You have nothing to worry about. This isn't even the first school shooting in Oregon since Sandy Hook.
It is definitely possible the laws in Oregon will change. Nationally? No way. |
|
I think their most likely target will be "universal background checks." They simply don't have the support for any sort of federal gun/mag/ammo ban. But it is much easier to push shit like "close the gun show loophole" on the masses that have no idea that no such loophole even exists.

Modern semi-automatic firearms are useless without ammo or magazines.
|
|
Their best strategy would be to go after hicap magazines. We'd be screwed without them.
|
|
Nothing will happen federally.
State and local, whatever they can get away with. They need to open the loony bins again is what needs to happen. |

The dims OWN this place and I'm afraid we're screwed. BTW, anyone know the latest shipping times for PSA |

Imported firearms, mags, and ammo. Obama can do it with his pen.

A black man killing 9 adults who weren't part of a protected minority (Christians) with a diagnosis of mental illness that should have made him a prohibited person and a mother who ignored his illness. This is going nowhere.
How about the 2,332 mostly black people shot in Chicago so far this year? why are 9 white Christians so much more important than 2,332 people in Chicago? |

Most likely to be targeted?
All the things. They won't stop until they're ALL banned. |
|
Internet sales of ammo and guns to be stopped by executive order.
It's coming within a year. |

All of a sudden I no longer feel as though I have too many things. Batten down the hatches.

I am not going to panic buy because of this shooting. There is no need. Nothing will happen at a federal level of substance.
As noted, Oregon might do something like Colorado did after the Aurora movie massacre. Even those efforts were mainly an inconvenience. |
|
I think the next big thing will be internet sales of guns and ammo. they would get support from small gun shops across the country.
No FFL no internet sales. |
|
But why should insane people be allowed to buy hundreds of fully automatic bullets from the dark corners of the internet???

This DOES NOT fit the narrative. I'm not personally a Christian, but in the current environment, I can really see that it is they who are being hunted and persecuted much as another religion was in a Central European country in the late 1930's were. Scary shit. History may not repeat itself, but it damned sure rhymes... |

Further, you can BUY the means of magazine manufacture for under $1k and pump them out for pennies. There are some extremely good printer instructions out there that will make everything you will need for a magazine except the spring, and that too isn't that far off. We have an unbelievably good 3d printer at my work that we have created magazines on from instructions I got off of DefDist and I have easily put 600 rounds through one mag and the thing hasn't had any issues at all. Soon, as in within the next five to ten years you'll be able to print the entirety of a firearm up to and including the barrel out of metal. Once that moment is realized, the cat is out of the bag and only ammunition restrictions have any chance whatsoever of curtailing guns. |

"Most likely to be targeted...mags, ammo, guns? "
Common sense. |

Going to piggyback (not hijack...piggyback) on this and ask if hive consensus concurs with a friend of mine who thought I was an idiot to panic buy at the rate of $300 per month with 3 additional purchases around the $800 range (1 Colt Government model and 2 long arms) from the time of O's November 2008 election until May of 2010 when ex confronted me about it.

The future of gun control is not on the national level but on the local level.
