Re: 2013 Federal Legislative Session Gun Bills

Thanks for this list, Warhorse10_9. It does help.

I also want to register one minor disagreement with HR 137 by McCarthy. I consider this a bad bill. Making every transaction go through a dealer and NICS is not a good idea. We need to fight every restriction on gun rights now, not conceding even one inch. One reason I say this is because once the bill is passed, it is easy to remove exemptions and amend it. For example, they put in a maximum fee for you to pay for the NICS check to the dealer. Next year they might raise this fee when dealers complain. Then they could insert a minimum fee after that. They could remove the restriction on not keeping records of the transactions, thus giving them a national database.

I think this should be marked as a bad bill.
