    I will second what rharris2163 above said. He will not go after the assault type weapons just yet , but look out ammo . He is a charmer that eventually will be a disarmer.

    Maybe somebody actually told him that "assault weapons" are used in maybe 1% of murders...and, oh by the way, something like 30% of murders are committed without ANY firearms at all!

    Oh, please let the panic buying stop...(maybe then I'll be able to get my hands on a BCM upper)
    Hate to sound skeptical here, but did you watch any of his campaign speeches and the promises he made, and then summarily broke?!

    I can only hope that this drives down prices...

    That sounds about right... Either that or put a huuuge tax on them so that most people will just choose not or won't be able to buy.

    Ammo bans would be as illegal as a gun ban. It is protected by the constution too.

    You realize the President can't tax jack don't you?

    Why would a congresscritter who fears losing his job to an AWB would not fear losing his job to an ammo ban or tax that would piss even more people off??

    That's what the British tried ... April 19, 1775. Didn't work out so well for them.


    There is no way that a ban on ammunition would comport with Heller.

    Yes, I understand that. But you realize that there is a tax on gas and cigarettes and other stuff, and those taxes can be raised to high levels to detour buying those things, right?

    Who fears losing their job?

    Yes that is true. But those taxes are passed by congress not the president. And for the most part those are popular taxes that are favorite targets during times of economic slow downs.

    Ammunition taxes are not &, to the best of my knowledge and my congressional delegation, have never been seriously brought up in recent memory. Nor would they be anymore supported then a AWB.

    Frankly, as gun enthusiasts I think we are starting to sound a little paranoid to the general public. The reality is this white house does not have the political capital nor want to take on AWB legislation because they know they will lose. They do not have the votes.

    And that is politically damaging to any president, especially one with an agenda as big as this president. Might I remind you that Bush & McCain would have signed a AWB.

    This is won or lost in the congress.
