Five 2A laws that should be passed

Five Fast Gun Reforms President Trump Will Sign Into Law

1. Ending gun-free zones on military bases
2. National concealed carry reciprocity
3. Legalizing silencers
4. NICS background check reform
5. All import of collectible historic firearms

Obviously, the national concealed carry reciprocity would be huge, but legalizing silencers could be interesting. The hearing protection bill that was proposed a while back gets rid of the $200 tax stamp and would preempt state laws. Basically, it would make them legal in NY.

after his inauguration we need to start hammering the NRA, and elected officials to push for this legislation. The hearing protection act is something that needs to happen, along with the other items you listed. Also, we need a way to secure the 2a from attacks at the state level, we need to somehow make it so that the state cannot violate the 2a as NY and other states have done.

That will be a huge fight, just because we have a rep majority, and Trump as the pres doesnt mean the reps in the house and senate are going to go for this stuff. they will be wheeling and dealing with the dems in congress still.

it will take a lot of emailing and calling. we get a little break until after the new year, but then its game on!

No, we need to start hammering them NOW and have legislation ready to introduce on Jan 21st (or whatever). It needs to be part of the first 100 day wave of legislation.

How about NO assault weapon bans too.

 

[Phauxtoe]

how about we get rid of these arbitrary Judicial Restrictions too!

NY bullshit at its finest!

If you're gonna remove the $200 tax stamp from silencers you may as well get rid of the stamps all together (SBRs, SBS, full auto etc)

Three states OK stricter gun laws in Election Day referenda

California, Washington and Nevada all approved stricter gun laws, from banning certain ammunition sales to requiring background checks on private gun sales. Maine shot down an attempt to require background checks on private purchases.

The California measure makes it illegal to possess ammunition magazines that hold more than 10 rounds. It also requires background checks for anyone purchasing ammunition and lays out a process by which convicted felons’ firearms are seized.

“It was a repudiation of the National Rifle Assn. and the gun lobby. They lost badly,” California Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom told the Los Angeles Times. “It’s a very important initiative because I think it’s the beginning of a national debate on relinquishment and ammunition background checks that will I think will have a very significant impact on reducing gun violence in this country.”

In Washington, voters approved a measure that allows police and family to petition a judge to restrict gun ownership of people thought to be a danger to themselves or to others, the Seattle Times reported.

Nevada voters OK’d expanding background checks for all private gun sales and transfers.

Joe Duffy, who headed the campaign in support of Nevada’s proposed new gun laws told the Las Vegas Review Journal that the newly approved law is a “common-sense measure that can save lives while respecting the rights of law-abiding gun owners.”

Maine voters rejected a measure similar to the one in Nevada. Gun rights advocates celebrated their victory, calling it a “great night for the people of Maine.”

Yeah, but even if the whole silencer thing goes through, we still can't have threaded barrels here.

That's a good point, although I don't see them doing anything right now. But that doesn't mean we shouldn't try.

What about ending gun free zones everywhere there is not a safe perimeter?
Or should we continue to treat defenseless people and children of lesser value than fellow travelers in airports?
