It was kindofa dumb enough proposition that I can fully understand how he thought over-legislative Progressives would have done it.

"Arms" is man portable, light, single person weapon and is what is supported by 2A. Not difficult. 2A does not guarantee your right to own a tank (though that would be cool ; ) )

Gun Manufacturing Has Skyrocketed
The number of guns manufactured in the U.S. has nearly doubled in just a few short years, from nearly 5.5 million in 2010 to nearly 10.9 million in 2013. The overwhelming majority of those guns stay on U.S. soil; around 400,000 firearms were exported in 2013.

Gun-Owning Households On The Decline

The number of armed households has actually declined to about 1 in 3. So an ever larger number of guns is concentrated in a shrinking number of homes:
In most states (including ours') you DO have to make a background check during a purchase or in designated years.

So - most of us have more than 2 finish rods with different pieces for different roles. You would not bring a 10' conventional surfrod to Lilly's Liilly Pond for sunfish. Not would you take a lever action 22 to shoot skeet.

The left never intends or threatens or intimates it will take your guns. Cough, cough.
