DDTC (the ITAR Extortion Racketeers) and DOJ don't even so much as give a slap on the wrist, when if my own read on ITAR is right because my girlfriend is a Canadian citizen--a citizen of an ALLY, mind you--that just inviting her to join me playing with the AR's, Aimpoints etc. on the range would get me bent over and buttraped for an "Unlicensed Deemed-Export" even without any of the hardware ever leaving my immediate control.

*A term I use only in turning the Left's own tricks against them, much like me calling Paul Allen out for amassing a hoard of Nazi and Soviet Terror Weapons while seeking to ban my AR's and 1911... after all, no honest man needs a kamikaze flying-bomb or ballistic missiles, right?
Just something that I thought might merit consideration for you guys' discussion... especially given the new developments announced this morning. (Seriously, the thought of HK getting hit with sanctions made me gigglesnort my Dr Pepper... that stuff HURTS comin' out your nostrils!)
The Iranian HK contract was established when the Shah was running things in Iran and at the time they were a western ally.
It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.
Chuck, we miss ya man.
