Subject: RE: BS: After Aurora: Gun sales surge
Here is the deal in a nutshell, do I agree with the current gun laws as they now sit, NO I don't. But and this is the but ... I like many others took an oath, that oath states to protect and defend the constitution of the United States. Until the law makers change anything I will defend the right to gun ownership as it is part of the Constitution and as it is laid out right now. Now do we need some loopholes plugged ... you bet ..

In 1986 the FFL changed gears and tightened up auto weapons a bit. All new auto weapons are to be sold only to FFL class 3 license holders or to Police and Military ... A class three license is relatively hard to get but not that expensive, it is 500 bucks per year due July 1 of every year.

However, if one wants a fully auto weapon without a class 3 license, buy a pre 1986 fully auto weapon from a class 3 dealer, pay the 200 bucks for transfer, get fingerprinted and FBI check and you can take it home private citizen .. so there is another loophole I think that I don't really like much. But again I don't make laws, I do defend them...

anyone wanting to really play with big boy toys .. join the military as Rap says, ya can get all kinds of guns to fire.
