...wonder what this whole thing was distracting us from...

Or were they just testing the waters, probing for weakness?

It's hard saying. I wouldn't put anything past them. We've all seen stuff in recent years that just plain blows my mind. I keep thinking where we going to move to, but there isn't anywhere to go if we could.

Well they still say that if you put the grip or brace of a handgun up against your shoulder it magically transforms it into a short barreled rifle!

but you still need that 200 dollar stamp because your barrel is less than 16".

Waytago O'moron.  Now I've joined the NRA, the GOA, and RMGO.  All of my gun friends have made gun and ammo purchases their number one priority. 

Buy at least a box of ammo with each pay period.

Sign up for the above orgs - they will send you emails on political actions - DO THEM.

ARM  UP!  PRACTICE.  GET A CCW.

No, it's a pistol... no tax stamp required until you put the grip/brace to your shoulder. THEN it becomes a tax burden and a possible felony.
