Lets say there was a push to undo the 1986 silliness, and it actually had legs to the point where maybe there was a bill being written up or something to repeal '86.
Can you see current MG owners fighting this bill in order to protect the value of their investments?
How effective do you think they could be? I can see someone who owns $100,000 worth of pre-1986 MG's telling a reporter about the horrors of letting "just anyone" buy a brand new machine gun, when in actuality he is lying to try to protect the over-inflated value of his guns dropping to about $5000.
Can you imagine the effect of machine gun owners on TV *against* making machine guns easier to get? What a death blow.
I am sure there are MG owners out there who have more money than they have respect for the 2A. . .
