"I had a great meeting tonight with @realDonaldTrump & @VP. We all want safe schools, mental health reform and to keep guns away from dangerous people. POTUS & VPOTUS support the Second Amendment, support strong due process and don’t want gun control. #NRA #MAGA" Cox wrote on Twitter.

If they are wrong I predict the end of the broader support for the NRA aside from F Class Bench-rest and Sporting Clay shooters.

The problem with those closed doors meetings is you never know what agreements were made and how both sides want to spin them.

The fact a meeting happened tells us something.

I think the NRA positioned themselves previously to compromise on bumpstocks but not semi-auto rifles. And certainly not mag mags. If they give on those two, they are worthless to gun owners.

Resistance to age restrictions is going to be weak. We already let that happen to handguns.

Age restrictions are tough to fight because the people affected only have "skin in the game" for 3 years max, and it usually takes longer than that to get a bill through Congress.

An 18 year old might be all fired up to fight against age restrictions right after he turns 18 but by the time he's within months of his 21st birthday he'll be "meh" and it's really tough to get over-21 people worked up about something that will never affect them personally.

The age of the voting population is greatly tilted against the younger voters. "Doesn't affect me, so why not?"

[ZERO THEORY]

anyone who is surprised by Trump caving has not been paying attention. He was a liberal East Coast democrat for years, donated to slick Willy's campaign, hobnobbed with the liberal elite. When he decided to make a run for the White House, suddenly he's a true blue, america first, God fearing conservative. The fact that he had a NYC carry permit doesn't speak to his support for gun rights, it speaks volumes about his political connections. His throwing gun owners under the bus is about as surprising as the sun rising in the East.

Said it in '16. Said it in '17. Saying it now. Anyone who ever bought his "Republican" shtick should inquire about the bridge I'm selling.

[ZERO THEORY]

I have maintained since the minute he decided to run that he is the most elaborate agent provocateur in American history. He's playing a Democrat-designed character that is meant to kill off the Republican party's establishment for good. If he had lost, the Dems get to say, "We finally moved on from the old America" and lock in their ideology with this generation and the next. But him winning is even better. He cartoonishly supports a bunch of non-sensically stupid establishment talking points. He spouts off at the mouth (or fingers, as it were) with inane bullshit like the military trans ban, dick-measuring contests with nuclear nations, pseudo-patriotic conviction, climate change denial, etc. He assigns corrupt, moronic, and/or shameful charlatans like Sessions, Tillerson, Perry, et. al. All the while, he just chips away day by day at the current and next voting generations' interest in the Republican party. He gives the leftist media plenty of ammo to tear him down with intentionally, and they run it 24/7/365.

The 18-30 segment is already overwhelmingly blue, let alone these kids that are gonna hit 18 by 2020. This is the end of the Republicans as you know 'em. There is a silver lining, however. We may have a chance to finally turn the party around and make it a small government, fiscally-conservative, hands-off party as it should be. Focus on civil liberties and trimming the fat, and stop with this 1950s bullshit where we're bitching about abortion, gay marriage, and other things that don't effect anyone else, and aren't anyone else's business whatsoever. We can purge the racists, xenophobes, and religious zealots. Go back to just letting each man (or woman) live their own lives, of their own accord. Without trillions of dollars and hundreds of thousands of employees tangled up in the mess. We're playing the long con already, so perhaps this annihilation is necessary to rebuild the right way.

How our gun rights fare in this metamorphosis remains to be seen.

[BushMasterBoy]

It is still better than Hillary. Her brother in law got caught with a kilo of cocaine and only did 6 months for it. Yeah, Roger Clinton! Got a presidential pardon too. Lot of dead bodies in Little Rock unexplained. I'm lucky I left Arkansas with my life. Hillary fainting before getting in the Secret Service armored vehicle sealed her fate politically.
They will never take away the 2A and the deficit is approaching $22 trillion. They can't afford to remove the protection of a 100 million guns. It is the part of the national defense plan they don't want to talk about. Besides, it is our money...

Except few out of 100, we all knew what Ted Cruz meant.
All I will say is that I tried my best not to speak ill of other republican on year 2016.
Now as of 2018, it is extremely difficult to follow 11th commandment. I will do my best.
