Clearly, a lot of folks are worried that the federal govt. is going to pass new gun regulations.
This may indeed happen. But one thing that will NOT happen, is the confiscation of any firearms.
If a new Assault-Weapons Ban is enacted, it will of course not affect presently owned guns.
And unless you live in one of the few states that have any gun registration (like NY & Massachusetts), the govt. doesn't know which guns you own, so they can't tell you to turn in any guns that they don't know you have.
The only way the govt. could find out who owns newly-banned weapons, would be by forcing ALL gun dealers and FFLs around the nation to hand in ALL of their transaction records. And that simply will not happen.
So yes, it is possible that the days of being able to buy 10+ round magazines may be over soon. The days of being able to buy AR-15s and AK-47s may be coming to end.
But no one is gonna come for the guns you already own.
You may no longer be able to buy accesories, parts, and ammo for your newly-banned gun, but you will keep the gun.
....just my two cents.
