    Of course, this isn't likely to happen. But that's the only real way I see it happening, unless a lot more people start pushing for it, and it gets passed as a standalone bill, which would require a pro-gun Republican president.

    After changes are rammed through, it becomes the new normal. People are too lazy and busy to really make a stand, even on things that directly affect them. For something like making suppressors into a commodity purchased like one would purchase a set of scope rings, which affects literally NOBODY adversely, any opposition would be purely from astro-turf outfits like Bloomberg's "Moms" and the Brady Bunch. Nobody really gives a **** what these clowns think.
    Thank You! They are the enemy, why would anyone value what they have to say?

    Why not? What is the worse they can do to us? Call us names? Lie about us and the facts?

    "Don`t rock the boat" is what has led us to our current infringements. So we are to double down on a failed model, why again?

    We are winning lets us suit up, boot up, and kick some ass, with lawfare/social media campaign we are winning. Nut up or shut up.

    Let us use the coming super majority in Congress and the White house after the 2016 elections to restore Liberty, to Hell with "fairness" or "moral high ground" let us use the 51 vote rule and any other tactic to restore our Liberty.

    Please bring attention to the NFA. Libtards will demand all "assault weapons" be added to it, etc. etc.

    If laws move leftwards when the Dems are in power and the Republicans just hold the line when they're in power instead of actually trying to reverse them, then it's just moving left more slowly.

    Unfortunately, this is actually the case with many laws, not just gun laws.

    They're already demanding confiscation of all guns already, so what's your point? Playing defense has only led to an erosion of rights. By pointing how how asinine it is to put hearing protection under the NFA & how arbitrary it is to put certain barrel lengths under NFA a great argument is made to remove them. More people than you realize would find it ridiculous a stamp is required for an SBR or suppressor.

    Thank you, if you are "meeting in the middle" as the the enemy is always moving towards tyranny where will you be moving towards?

    If most people knew suppressors were legal for civilians to own, they would be gone.

    Some of you need to stop living in fantasy land, and accept that firearms are too accessible to crazies.

    i see, you're part of the "I believe in the second amendment, BUT...." crowd. Freedom for me but not for thee mentality works great in NY, you'd love it there.

    What could they do? Well, let's see...

    Reinstate the "assault weapon" ban with no grandfather clause.

    Ban all sales of ammo in calibers commonly used by the military (several European countries do this).

    Ban all magazines with a capacity > 10 rounds with no grandfather clause.

    Ban everything now included in the NFA with no grandfather clause.

    Institute a national gun registry.

    Ban all handguns.

    Ban all semiauto firearms.

    Need more?

    These are all things the other side would love to have an excuse to do. Do any of us WANT to see any of these happen? Of course not. But many of us FEAR some of these things might happen, especially if we get Queen Hillary the First (which Donald trump is making more likely every day).

    The pendulum has been swinging toward rational gun laws (i.e., rolling back useless restrictions) for about 20 years now and I hope this will continue. However, it's worth thinking about what might give the other side ammunition for its arguments. Like it or not our rights are at the mercy of popular opinion. Whether things OUGHT to be that way is academic. It's how things are.

    When people ask how things could possibly get worse life often indulges in the annoying habit of answering the question.
