This is why I started this thread is to hear thoughts from others. I wasn't insisting that a SHTF scenario would be a massive earthquake or a tsunami or an event like that, sometimes the SHTF scenario is government intervention and regulation/legislation that comes with extreme consequences like 20 year mandatory jail time for having an "assault rifle" or 5 year mandatory for having a high cap magazine.
The conversations that I hear a lot are about people building F/A unregistered SBR's from 80% lowers complete with optics, PEQ-15's and homemade suppressors using the Surefire Warden as the donor mount. These are not just some toothless rednecks, these are CPA's, Lawyers, and professionals who anticipate something bad going down. I don't know what but I know its on peoples mind, that sooner or later, something is going down and we need to be prepared for it.
There is writing on the wall that really point to national registry, permanent bans, followed by nation wide confiscation or severe punishment in non compliance. I think most people are in denial or oblivious to the signs pointing toward that event. And I do NOT think the military is on our side, don't get me wrong, I support them, and they DO fight for peoples rights, just not ours- they will obey orders and so will LEO's.
I think a lot of people including most people on this forum will turn in there guns if that comes to be- I say that because of how many people on M4C refuse to build a 16" gun for fear that it is too grey area, so they build a 16.25 or 16.50 just to be safe. Most people are willing to drink a little too much and drive home or travel with a little grass in there possession, yet scared to go to a public range with a unregistered SBR for fear that some ATF who is nowhere around will somehow find out. And I see that a lot! More and more people today who own unregistered SBR's that they built and take them to public ranges, post pics on IG and Facebook like its no big deal. That's why I asked this question. I personally do NOT participate in breaking the NFA laws. I honor, respect and cherish the law!
Look at NJ right now, they are supposedly going door to door looking for hicap mags. Just think if the protesters in Paris had AR's. They are literally spraying liquified cow shit inside of government buildings with tractors and burning down everything. We are living is some uncertain times.
