Now they begin to take away our rights
From American Rifleman, Nov., pg. 45:
Quote:
Here's just some of what they have planned for us.
Federal Arsenal License: To possess more than 20 firearms, (and parts such as bolts would be regulated as firearms), 1000 rounds of ammunition, or just 1000 primers, you'd need a special $300.00 federal arsenal license. The three year license would require law enforcement approval and an extensive background check.
BATFE Home Inspections: To get an "arsenal license", you'd have to be willing to open your home to inspections by BATFE three times a year.
Small Handguns Banned: Possession of small caliber pistols and short-barreled revolvers would be banned. Also in jeopardy would be older guns, such as single-action revolvers, that lack prescribed safety devices.
Magazines Banned: Bill Clinton's ban on magazines of more than ten rounds would be replaced with a ban on magazines that hold more than six rounds.
Ammunition Banned: Ammunition determined to be "non sporting" would be banned. Any handgun ammunition left on the market would see a federal excise tax increase of 50%. Interstate mail order ammunition sales would be prohibited.
Waiting Periods/Gun Rationing: There would be a national seven day waiting period on handguns and handgun ammunition sales, and you'd not be able to buy or transfer more than one handgun in any 30-day period.
Registration: Buying a handgun, parts, or ammunition, would require a state issued photo-ID license. You'd have to provide fingerprints, pay a fee, and pass a firearm safety course to obtain a two year license. Buyers would have to "provide information necessary to regioster the handgun transfer. Transfer, (to an individual), of a handgun would require registering the transfer with the state's chief law enforcement officer.
