The Congress shall have power to regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, and among the several States, and with the Indian Tribes;
View Quote


Unless you source your firearm from 100% intrastate commerce (which is possible), it is a product of interstate commerce and falls under the above citation.

If you cannot legally obtain an NFA item due to state or local issues, that is a not a problem with the NFA, it's a problem with you choosing to live where you do.

The problem, is gun enthusiasts generally have an entitlement mentality.

Can't get a CLEO sign off?  That is NOT  problem with the NFA or the BATFE.  It's a problem that YOU chose poorly with regard to your habitation.

"Muh rights!"

"Muh family!"

"Muh job!"


Yeah, those things are all important, in varying degrees to varying people.

HOWEVER, many people have made the effort to pick up and move to locations that are more favorable for the practice of their 2A rights.

They are utilizing the NFA to keep people from owning certain firearms.

You think the feds are ignorant of the fact that many CLEO will not sign off on it?

They know it and want it.  Why do you think they are presumably going to make changes to how they accept trusts?

When the item in question no longer has any value as it was originally intended.

Example:  A functioning M16 no longer has any value when it is demilled per BATFE regulations.

The purpose of the commerce clause was to prevent states from enacting trade embargos and tariffs on each other.

Regulate commerce, like a regulated clock—as in to keep it moving. Under the articles of confederation there were all sorts of impediments to trade. The commerce clause fixed that by keeping trade regular.

Really?  Then why was the tax of 200.00 when originally set in 1934 equivalent to roughly one months pay?  Not the cost, just the tax.  Inflation has

 



actually helped a little bit, because according to the calculator I used 200.00 in 1934 corresponds to roughly 3400.00 today.

I can go out right now and purchase any type of firearm I can afford (price dictated by market value) plus some paperwork.

I have multiple stamps including Machine Gun, SBR, and supressors (no AOW).

Never had a problem gettting ANY of them.

That is the STUPIDEST assertion I have ever heard.  People buying into that bullshit is how the gov has gotten away with it for so long.

The Commerce clause was intended to prevent something like Massachusetts from embargoing or levying duties on goods (of any sort) made in, say, Pennsylvania.  Or to use your example, from embargoing Kentucky Long Rifles.  That's the full extent of the authority of the fucking commerce clause

In 1790, purchasing a rifle from the 'smith on the other end of town would not have been called "interstate commerce" by any reasonable person.



Today, it's construed as "the steel in the tools that were used to carve the stock could possibly have originated from iron ore from another state, so INTERSTATE COMMERCE BITCHES!"




The current interpretation of the commerce clause is a naked and shameless power grab, and I'm disappointed that I don't hear current SCOTUS judges challenging it.
