I seems hard to believe that the government can make you actually turn in any gun it is your property. My grandfather owned an italian machine gun that had no magazine. He would load one round and deer hunt with this gun. The machine gun ban of 34 was passed. I think he had to register the gun with the FBI he hunted with it until he died in '58 it stayed in the family until the early '80's. The FBI or ATF would come over and want to still see if the family still had the gun. They finally sold it to a class 3 dealer in the '80's but the government never seized it. I guess any unconstituational law can be voted on and even passed. Then it has to have somebody convicted if disobeying then taken to the supreme court and thrown out. Election year politics strange. Hunting with a ww1 era machine gun, yes we are polish. NA strawdie or whatever

If so, ..."On top of the soap box, load your box magazines, and prepare to present in front of the jury box."

If you ever get tired of the perpetual fight, we'd welcome you and all of your guns here in New Hampshire. http://www.freestateproject.org/

"The perpetual fight" is a good description. If we don't win the fight in the other states, it's only a matter of time before it comes to you in New Hampshire.

I am so sick of this crap, but it’s what happens when Rod and Dick are running the state. I’m interested in what Springfield Armory, DSA arms, Rock River Arms, and Les Bear will have to say since they are all located in Illinois.
