I know the words that flowed out of POTUS mouth just allowed me to get another upper kit! The Mrs was watching and said "is there any parts you need to get?"
By far the best thing the guy has done for me personally.

I happen to have a post-preban, ban free lower and you're local.
Judging by the panty wadding regarding ability to buy anything tomorrow, with out a long wait, just screwed you out of an affordable lower.
But i'm reasonable and open to offers:)
Does he have enough backers for this?
Ppbbfl....lots oh letters
Good thing I have 5 unbuilt lowers in my.... I mean I need to get certified for scuba diving.
I think I'm ok. I have receivers in the shop.
Glad I got everything I have. I was thinking about the possibility or need of getting extra parts and maybe stocking up on those.
Was anyone really surprised to hear that? We've all known O would push that position in a second term. That's been expected for a long time.
I think most of use were suprised to hear him actually say it this close to the election.
I'm sorry but pardon my ignorance. I was just a wee chitlin when the previous AWB was passed. Did Clinton just instate it, or did it have to be voted on by congress?
Executive Orders. then congress has to undo them. obama believes he is above the law. look at F&F, look at his quest to get rid of Bushs 11th hour of letting concealed carry in national parks. he finally had to accept it.
this could end up the same case for Romney, maybe...maybe not. give him 4 more years to figure it out and it is a pretty damn good possibility.
NRA will be all over this as well. definitely just increased their membership and donations.
If it gets brought up seriously again...I can think it may have very well sealed obamas fate of losing.
Thanks for the knowledge. I think I'm gonna be proactive and just sell my firearms now.
I'm not surprised. He realizes people who understand the need for the right of the citizens to arm themselves would never vote for him anyways. In other words, he knew he wouldn't be losing any votes by making the statement. One of those "nothing to lose, everything to gain" kind of things.
Unfortunatly for me, I only get to make a firearm purchase once a year...when I get my year end bonus.
This year I wanted another AR. I don't see that happening now. Even if he looses, I expect the buying frenzy his comments tonight will likely create, is going to make them and most other guns hard to find (at a realistic price) for a year at least. Thanks a lot Obummer.
Time to sell.. not to buy! [Tooth]
I am not surprised in the least, he said near the exact same words at his nomination here in Denver at the DNC in 07.
He just waited until he had nothing to lose to bring it up again.
Yup, he has nothing to lose.........
I've long said no matter what we will see a change to our 2A at the hands of BHO.
If he wins he has nothing to lose.
If he loses he has nothing to lose.
I'll probably be able to buy that new car with the money I make off my AK next Tanner...
Heck, I might have to go adjust the price on my item in the "for sale" section. [Coffee]
Yeah, but have you seen my current depreciating asset?

That's BEFORE the accident that totalled it!
Ouch.. sorry didnt know.
Dang you guys. I have been planning (dreaming about) my next gun purchase for the last year, as I save up some cash. But now you hooligans are going to be asking $10k for all the good stuff in the trading post.

I missed the debate. Is pushing for a new Congressionally passed law (the Constitutional way), or did he enact another Executive Order?
Yup.
I don't think an (R) House will open a new AWB. I think if The Failure wants an AWB he'll have to go the EO route.
This is why it is important that conservatives win more seats in the House and Senate, so stuff like AWB does not get started and so we can get EOs repealed.
I only see two problems with this:
1) The GOP is not conservative
2) The GOP in the House have not done anything other than bicker for the past 2 years. I hate to use the word, but they HAVE been obstructive. While it's not necessarily bad, they have used their time there to swear to slow down or stop everything Obama does. Whether it be good or bad. They've put more effort into stopping anything Obama supports than actually trying to fix the problems they were elected to work on.
disclosure: I didn't watch the terds being pinched (debate) last night, but it would seem from the quotes I read this morning- if they both were elected it would be a dead heat race to eschew any/all portions of the constitution, and the 2A is on deck early.
I hear the second stanza of the funeral dirge for America right now.
1) I agree, people like me make the GOP more conservative but the GOP is still a socialist organ right now.
2) I don't mind the obstruction and that obstruction is a 2 way street. Remember that Harry Reid wouldn't even bring the Ryan budget up for any kind of vote in the Senate.
Well I actually know of one vote he lost last night....my brothers. He went to school in Boulder and has been living there for years. They converted him to be an Obama zombie on almost all issues except gun rights, since he still loves to hunt and shoot. Sent him a nice text during the debate last night and welcomed him to the party. I can only hope there are more like him.

One thing that has been overlooked as far as a potential ban would go:
In D.C. v Heller the Scotus clearly stated " a ban on a "class" of firearm violates the Second Amendment. The total ban of handgun possession amounts to a prohibition on an entire class of "arms" that Americans overwhelmingly choose for the lawful purpose of self defense. (handgun is used here in context as that is what was at the heart of the Heller case)
Now if one applies this logic:
What is the overwhelming choice of rifle (if you go by sales numbers) recently?
The AR platform.
Heller really makes it difficult to LAWFULLY ban a "class" of firearm.
