Our Very Soon to be President

[Bman505]

Do you really think that Obama is going to try and take away our 2nd Amendment Rights? I know he wants to increase gun tax up to like 45% or something crazy. One reason why gun sales are through the roof. The other I heard is that he is going to take away the right to conceal a handgun to those who are responsible. Congress has to approve it first, right? I would like to hear what all of your thoughts are on this.

Obama

"My first priority will be to reinstate the assault weapons ban as soon as I take office. Within 90 days, we will go back after kitchen table dealers, and work to end the gun show and internet sales loopholes. In the first year, I intend to work with Congress on a national no carry law, 1 gun a month purchase limits, and bans on all semi-automatic guns."
So, how do we protect our 2nd amendment rights in the face of this overwhelming new DC monster? First, your Firearms Instructor License, with an executive/ dignitary protection add on, or your EP/Bodyguard Instructor Certification will protect your concealed carry rights with current versions of the legislation already being drafted by Pelosi. Record sales of guns prior to the next (silly) ban on collapsible stocks and bayo lugs are already happening.

Regardless of their majority, there will still be "pre ban" guns out there, as even a unified Dem DC wouldn't dare trying to go "house to house" to get guns without a "prelude" (Here's HOW it will HAPPEN). Many are seeing this as a great investment opportunity, as the Clinton (milder) bans resulted in AR's jumping from $700 to $3,000 overnight when they had pre ban features, which actually do NOTHING to increase crime!

More ominously, will we say goodbye to our 1911's? Very possibly. To grandfather and save your current collection, and any purchases between now and March of 09 (Jan 20 Inauguration, plus two months to get the new laws to the floor), get your HOME FFL right now, and consider both GUNSMITHING and FIREARMS INSTRUCTION as exceptions that will likely remain. Our RELOADING CERTIFICATION will help the other areas the Dems have targeted: AMMO! Law enforcement, bodyguards and military will still need FI's and even the Dems won't try to destroy over 300,000 gunsmithing jobs. In fact, with more people trying to keep and expand their collections ahead of national registration, which is likely, gunsmithing will become a rocket growth career, just like auto repairs skyrocket when new car sales slump! Concealed Carry? Only retired LE and certified EP's will be excepted under the Obama/ Reid/ Pelosi plan.

I hope not. I give money to the NRA every year. I know they will stand up for our rights. IT will be very interesting to see what comes of all this.
