Question is whether ATF has authority under admin procedures act. I don’t think they do. Ooops.
“If the court accepts the gun lobby argument that federal law allows for straw purchases of guns, the felons, domestic abusers and the dangerously mentally ill will be able to easily circumvent the Brady background check system to obtain guns from licensed dealers”
I’m pretty sure that law is already easily circumvented by just ignoring it and making the straw purchases anyway…
SHHH! They’ll hear you….
When it comes to the constitution the justices need to examine the intent of the authors because it is very hard to change the constitution. But laws should be enforced as written. The court can simply send it back to Congress and say, ‘fix this.’ As long as felons are prohibited from possessing firearm it should be a crime to supply a felon with one, but I don’t see the harm in buying a gun for someone who isn’t prohibited. Not that minding your own business and not harming anyone else has ever kept the government off your back before.
So, when I get a great deal on an internet gun sale, with full intention of selling it later, I’m not the “Actual Buyer?”
I believe that if you aren’t intending to use it yourself that would make you an unlicenced dealer. If you take it to the range once you’d be selling a used gun though.
Was Choda boy there with his c0ck rocket?
That source article could have been written by the Bradys. Absolutely hideous. The Constitutional issue is whether the Executive branch can extend a law passed by the Legislature. I do like that someone out there in liberal land is worried about threats to those notable milestones of attacks on liberty such as the GCA. Let them squirm.
It only took the police 30 minutes to arrive at Sootch00’s house when he called for assistance when he discovered his house was burglarized.

I remember a story like this one frome Texas only with a better ending. Some crooks broke into a house with 2 kid in it and left with more holes than God gave them. if memory serves me right the 14 year old buy used his cop father’s ar to defend him and his sister
Want one…
Calling 911 hoping the police will stop an attack, is like calling your insurance company hoping they’ll prevent your car from crashing.
Law Enforcement is an incident response service. We’d make some headway as a nation if the average voter understood that.
I’m surprised the troopers didn’t shoot the dog when they got there. I also have a dog named Chunk. In all seriousness, I’m glad the kids and dog are ok, despite the total lack of assistance from the authorities. I’m guessing it is quite the wakeup call for that family.
You mean to tell me in the bastion of peace that is now CT after they passed those gun laws, there are still criminals?!?! I say Balderdash 🙂
They probably came from NYC, since it’s so hard to get a gun there.
Have you seen how very overweight most police are, and the 7/11’s and the donut shops give free coffee and donuts… No body gives me anything for free, and the pay for todays police is way too high … I know in PA. the police (Pa. state) would not answer a lot of calls , from gangs, fights, break in’s , vandalism , drunks, and yes they made sure to be 45 min’s or more to come??????????
I’d put my Benelli Nova against either one of these any day. Loser buys the scotch.
Nova here too. Bought as a tactical and then changed barrels to a 24″ for 3 gun. The 870 and 500’s I fondled prior to the nova purchase never felt as nice.
I didnt honestly know mossberg made guns in TX, but man I love some Remington 870s and 1187s. Grew up shooting two shotguns: a Browning Citori and a Rem 870. I still love shooting the citori but I got a new Supermag 870 before bird season (never ever even bought a 3.5 inch shell) in camo of course and am loving it for the most part. Some weird stickiness in the action at first, but other than that, it was quite the bird slayer this year.
I own both a 500 and an 870 and can tell you without a doubt that the 870 was BUILT better with(seemingly) better metals and a finer fit and finish. The metal on the 870 shows much less wear than on the 500 and has seen quite a bit more use over the years. I also had to replace the safety on the 500 while doing nothing at all(ever) to the 870.
That being said, Those are the only two I have access to which is no where near large enough to be a representative sample. The 870 is a 70’s era L.E. top folder(metal) and the 500 was bought new about 10 years ago so that may make some difference as well.
I can also state without a doubt that the 870 top folder would make a HORRIBLE boat oar.
I thought it was OK.
Going through a bunch of pistols before finding out what they liked best. Makes sense.
I used to do the same thing. Then I realized I like them all.
I stayed at a Hyatt last weekend. I wasn’t aware of their “policy.” But, even if I was… I am free to ignore it. And, so I do.
Someone should stick that thing up his nose.
Boy, if they only knew what I had in my car during the day, on my “range days” (Friday) When I went straight from school to the range. PTR 91, AK, 10/22s, hundreds of rounds, dozens of mags. Those were the days when I wasn’t taking anyone with me after school.
If ya keep voting in stupid, evil libtards (democrats), this is what ya get.
