There has been a good deal of talk about trying to craft EOs on gun control that cannot be reversed -- which should be effectively impossible. Another area they plan on focusing on are what are called "ghost guns" which are firearms assembled from separate parts and effectively untraceable. Ironically, this is becoming a favorite tactic among leftists. For instance, Willem Van Spronsen used such a rifle while firebombing an ICE facility near Tacoma, Washington (and spouting AOC's rhetoric almost verbatim) and it appears to be something that antifa in his area also does. Fortunately it jammed and when he tried to use it to kill police as they arrived on the scene.

"Ghost guns" have been around probably longer than any of us have been alive and are impossible to regulate. You can make a simple one-shot zip gun using common household items, and with the advent of 3D printers, such guns are becoming more sophisticated and reliable.Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd
But I'd rather be a fool in the eyes of man

Controlling access to hand made weapons is just going to get harder and harder. I see licensing in the future for 3-d printers and AI driven fail safes like on Star Trek (they can't use replicators to create weapons) with fairly stiff penalties for hacking around them - especially if such hacks were used to generate weapons.Last edited by oxmixmudd; 04-08-2021, 09:43 AM.My brethren, do not hold your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of personal favoritism.

Funny how "gun control" means making it harder for honest, law abiding citizens to exercise their protected right to bear arms while doing jack spit to stop Chicago gangbangers from gunning each other down in the street.Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd
