High complement !

She may be a gasbag bitch but she's turning you into a Christian... you referered to God twice in one post... dissapointing

Just for the record Obama doesn't have enough power to grab his own gun...

True statements. Thankfully, there is ammo back on the shelves. From the time of the election for about a year or more, you couldn't find a box of shells for anything that wasn't pretty much obsolete or black powder. Firearms - you couldn't find anything in semi-auto, especially an AR on a shelf practically anywhere and if you did, the price was double of the norm.

Why? Fear. Fear Sells. And man, did it. Gun and ammo manufacturers had record sales for two years, so much so, that a particular gun dealer I allegedly may or may not have used in the past hired on so many people to ship everything out of their warehouses that they emptied the shelves and could no longer get inventory to restock them. Layoffs ensued and they nearly went bankrupt the following year due simply to fear.

As for me, I have no registered firearms, there is no law that compels me to register them. In fact, I may or may not have any firearms at all. I had one or two at one time, however they were lost in a fire onboard my canoe while transporting them to an undisclosed location.....

IMO at a minimum registration will be necessary.
That way the Death Panels can dispatch the Gun Grabbers to make it safe for the Life Grabbers.

I think KK and Aunty are having a steamy affair.

I can smell the fragrant candles, and hear the sweet whispers of love. Is that Barry White on the rock Ola in the back ground? Aweeee Baby.......

Well there it is right there. Guns don't kill, I can wait a lifetime with a loaded gun on the table in front of me, it ain't going to do anything until SOMEONE pulls the trigger.

Guns kill people just like spoons made Rosy O'Donnell fat.

Actually, if you buy a pistol, there is a record kept. These will show up on a DOL report, or when WSP or other officers pull you over and run your license. Not supposed to be a database, but there most certainly is. This listing is also attached to your CPL electronically. If the states have them, you can most certainly bet that the FED.GOV folks have lists as well.

Been a deputy, and have many friends in the LEO community. This information is being kept to keep them safe. Don't have an issue with that either, but it would be disingenuous to state that there are no registries or lists of who bought what, and when.

I've never bought 35-40 guns in a month, except to sell them through my FFL, but I can only imagine the list of firearms that pops up from the ones legally transferred to me, before the tragic boating accident.

Now that fuuny!!

Dogfish,

I was going to bring that up. I don't pay that close of attention the gun law topic, but an expert down the hall and around a couple corners once told me that the federal gov't. has kept of record - database - of all sales since the 1968 gun law. I didn't know if that included long guns and handgun. Looks like you're saying it is just handguns that are recorded. Is that correct?

Meanwhile I'm still offended that I can't take weapons on a plane.

I am as well. We need to change that and Now!

The state registry specifically lists pistols. All weapons are FED.GOV

Like Dogfish stated the State of Washington records all pistol transfers/sales based on their form FIR-652-001. These forms are required by state law when the transfer is between a licensed dealer and a private individual. It doesn't apply to private party transactions or dealer to dealer transactions. The federal form 4473 applies to all firearms transfered between a dealer and private party.

Additionally, if a dealer sells more than one handgun to a private party the dealer is required to submit a "Report of multiple sale or other disposition of pistols and revolvers" to the ATF. Interstingly this only applies to pistols and revolvers not to frames or receivers, even if they are handgun receivers like a Thompson Contender.

When a State Patrol officer pulls up your data on their computer during a traffic stop, they run your DL#. That triggers the fact that you have a CPL, and attached to that data and readily available to that officer in their car, is a list of pistols that you have purchased that were registered through the process described by RVW.

My private party purchases are not listed, but the one purchased through FFL's are listed, because I use my CPL to avoid any waiting period for hand guns.

A list, readily available to an officer by just keying in your DL#, is in effect, a registry of firearms purchased by an individual. Call it what you want, but I had no choice to avoid "said list" if I wanted a NIB pistol.

Apparently a BJ isn't sex, according to some. So please, enlighten me on just what the definitiion of the word "IS" is.

reg·is·try (rej′is trē)

noun pl. registries -·tries

registration
an office where registers are kept
an official record or list; register
a certificate showing the nationality of a merchant ship as recorded in an official register

DF,

Thanks for the clarification. State list = handguns only. Fed list = all firearms.

FP,

I think what we have is political wordsmithing. Most Americans were opposed to a federal firearms registry, so instead the government has a "database" of firearms purchases. While I appreciate the difference, the database sure gives the gov't. a good idea of who might possess firearms.

Yeah, when ATF shows up at your door, try slamming it. The story you will have to tell will amuse us all.

Handcuffed with a knee in your back---" Can I see your warrant?"

I caught 2 steelhead today. What did you do?

Speaking of SCOTUS decisions.The more KayKay and his illegitimate butt child FishPrince post tends to give me pause to reflect upon the potential merits of abortion.

I sold a phuckk load of guns today....caught a chit load of big dungies over the last few days and booked an appointment to buy a piece of land in AK.

Glad about your success with those 2 fish....

I worked at the bank and signed 4 loans. Travelled to Centralia, picked up my son's bear hide that has been tanned, and now I'm drinking a spiked egg nog. I also got my fat cat banker bonus, first in 3 years. $2,700! (A mere pittance compared to what they usually have been)

Semantics, FP. .GOV maintains and compiles this list of gun owners.

I don't think they'll be knocking down my door any time soon either, as I am a law abiding citizen, but as we have seen in many states across the land, our .GOV folks have legislated firearms that were legal at one point in time to being unlawful to possess with the stroke of a pen. I don't trust the D's, nor the R's. They are all assholes and seldom do they do something for the public good, unless they or their friends can make a buck off of it.
