Gun Control Hypothetical

[two shoes]

Here is a compromise that was posted on another forum that I could possibly agree with.

NICS is made available to anyone for free. All firearm transfers have to be run through NICS or a simple form must be filled out and kept by the seller for a period of one year. The form does not have to be submitted to anyone unless it is requested by the police or DA for an official investigation. After one year it can be destroyed. No penalty for loosing the forms unless more than three are lost in the period of one year.

Machine guns remain an NFA item but new ones can be made and sold to civilians/general public. Suppressors, short barreled rifles, and short barreled shotguns are all removed from the NFA.

That is borderline agreeable...

gun control is not about making anyone safer, it is about registering your guns and private sales so they can tax you, if you have to register private sales then they tax the sales price like a used car.

the fact that they now know who has the weapons is just a bonus for when they come for them.

that is all

I'm strangely, somewhat comfortable with that... Basically same way it's done now, it shows you have had the BGC, but there is, other than a supposed BOS (that is what you're saying newracer, right?) held by the seller for 12mos, only extended to private sales, no registration/tax stamp or any other BS? And we can have NFA items removed from the "naughty" list? I could actually go with that...
