Antique guns vs gun grabbers

[BlueHeelerFl]

If more restrictive gun laws get passed then it is doubtful that they would allow ownership without permit. Period. Based upon what is seen in other parts of the world, rifles would be limited based upon their ability to do harm at longer range. Handguns would be limited based upon their ability to be concealed. Shotguns are among the safest guns to own if additional restriction is a concern, and among shotguns a manual action is favorable to a semiauto. Similarly, guns without magazine are favorable over magazine fed guns, and the smaller number of barrels would be favorable to larger numbers of barrels. Some European laws have brought into existence the triple barreled shotgun for these reasons, but I would think a classic “antique” double barrel to be relatively safe from the “gun grabbers” should legislation ever get to that point. Thankfully I don’t suspect that we will see such laws anytime soon in the USA, but this world changes quickly and nobody knows what is in store for us tomorrow.

Australia banned all bolt action and pump action firearms, so nothing is safe

Well, at least you apologized, we can still be friends.

I mean, 1911s, right?

The most 'reasonable and likely' real threat would be bans on semi auto magazine feed firearms. More extreme laws might reach down to lever action and pump long arms. Bolt guns would be last as to avoid a 'hunter' backlash. If handguns were allowed, 6 shot and lower revolvers might survive.

Given that I deleted a wave of politics and rants that should draw infractions but it’s too early , consider yourself warned if your post is gone.
