LOL, Yeah Hannu was telling me the France's gun laws are really good compaired to the rest of Europe its a little more laxed I guess. who would have thought

Speaking of European gun laws... A while back I worked on a job where the owner of the building was a Swiss immigrant to the US. I knew Switzerland was a good place to be a gun owner, but when he told me about their policies concerning assault weapons, I almost died of jealousy! It seems that while a guy is in their equivalent of the Army reserve, he is issued a Sig-Sauer SG550 which he must keep in his home, ready for combat, untill his term of service expires. After that, if he wants to keep his rifle, they will convert it to semi-auto and then its his..

That rifle gives me a boner...

I lived in Ohio for 20 years. This kind of suprises me. I mean, there's alot of hunters there and lots of guns, but the Ohio legislature doesn't have a good track record on being firearms friendly.

I'm glad states are waking up and smelling the coffee. I am one of those frogs that have been sitting in the pot of luke warm for twenty years. They keep threatening to boil it, but I'm ready to get out now. Let them start from scratch.

[DOC]

I asked a senator on face book how to introduce a new bill. He hasn't gotten back to me yet. But I hope he's not ignoring me.
He didn't want to use FB for business. But I'm not familiar with introducing bills so if he has some sort of dance or ritual to impress the gods other that straight forward asking he's going to have to explain it to me.

It appears Colorado is planning on following suit (along with many other states). I can't recall where I read it now, but I believe it is to be introduced in Colorado next year.

more states will follow. there have been several letters to FFLs though telling them even if the firearms are made in such a state that passes it that they are a federal dealer subject to federal fines and federal prosecution. I think the state should issue a state dealer license (don't even know if it would be required), but if you weren't an FFL and selling the guns purely under the states laws, it would be conceivable that it would be alright?

what say you guys?

I still think the feds would step in and say the guy would be acting as an FFL without such a license. it might take a supreme court ruling on this one.

I also think that if the chicago ban that was upheld there is upheld in the supreme court, then it is apparent federal law does not supersede state law and these states would have a case against the feds. they can't have it all. either states follow the feds rules which currently says no bans, or feds have to grant the states rules.

yes but I think you are only issued 50 rounds which are sealed, and the rifle and ammo is checked on by authorities at certain times (or maybe even any given time).

we have it better here. with the right amount of money you can have anything you want in this country.

Montana is already in the process of doing this. It is not at the supreme court (yet) but a lawsuit has been filed in a federal court in order to validate it.
