    Yes, something like that must be up.

    The obedient always think of themselves as virtuous rather than the cowards they really are.

    They don't need to do a full AWB right now. This was just a distraction/lull flasbang and it worked, so far.
    They will now focus on meddling in distribution and sales. Hence the current UPS/Fedex[?] shipping "mum's the word" thing going on, as well as the upcoming hearing with S&W/DD/Ruger and the push to get legislation passed to sue manufacturers.

    Yep, second shoe. And if nothing comes of it, was motivation enough for me to grab a Colt EPR since they were actually IN STOCK. Been wanting one.

    Based on the VERY recent SC ruling it is very clear any such law is clearly unconstitutional.

    That shit is DOA.

    Exactly. This would give them something to rail against leading into elections, even if they didn't have the votes to get it passed. The fact that they are abandoning it means they either have something else they want to campaign on or something they think they can get through that they want to focus their energy on before the elections occur. Either way, it's probably not good for us.
    It's f*****g great, putting holes in people, all the time, and it just puts 'em down mate, they drop like sacks of s**t when they go down with this.

    Even if it got through the house it's DOA in the senate.

    She may have temporarily sidelined it to keep the focus on this BS energy bill Manchin is now supporting.

    Since when do we need energy laws? Oh never mind, ever since we started regulating the crap out of everything.
