Re: Preparing the Contingency Plan
I will probably sell my long arms face to face to the top bidder, during that period of time between when the law is signed and when it takes effect. I figure they could sell for as high as $3000 each at that point. I don't feel like dealing with all the bullshit anymore.

F@ck them and their proposed law. It is unconstitutional.
A Republic, if you can keep it.

Re: Preparing the Contingency Plan
First, I think contingency planning is a good topic.
However, while it is certainly premature to accept that it's over, what do our children's children do, some two generations into the future, when a "phased plasma rifle in the 40 watt range" becomes reality and standard issue in our armed forces? We (civilians) certainly won't be allowed ownership of such things.
Not only that, what other "future weapons" will have been developed that will obsolete our metallic cartridge semi-auto's?
Take a look. http://hight3ch.com/top-10-future-weapons/
Scroll down to the "hungry beast" video. This was actually the premise in the "Bourne Legacy" film. Maybe in two generations they will also have found ways to medically treat people with criminal inclinations.
Just sayin' that sooner or later, technology will probably overtake us.

Re: Preparing the Contingency Plan
First of all, I'd like to point out that Feinstein's proposed ban is not wishful thinking on her part, but rather part of a broader strategy to eventually settle on a new ban that is far less restrictive than the initial proposal yet more restrictive than the '94 ban.
But in the event that all semi-autos are required to be on an NFA registry, I say good for you if you decide not to register your firearms. I would rather sell my firearms to the highest bidder while it's still legal to do so, rather than have my name on a federal registry and pay $200 PER FIREARM in tax stamps. Besides, I live in Philly, where nobody will sign off on NFA items. I'm screwed if Feinstein's NFA plan were to go through. Violating the NFA is not an option for me - I can't afford to risk losing my job, my house, and going to federal prison for failing to pay the NFA tax. Feel free to do so yourself if you think the benefits outweigh the risks.
I respect your preferences, so why can't you respect mine?

Re: Preparing the Contingency Plan
You take a cowardly position and expect me or anyone else to respect you for it? chutzpah...
This quote comes to mind.......
If you love wealth more than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, depart from us in peace. We ask not your counsel nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains rest lightly upon you and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen."
- Samuel Adams
This isn't about your House, your Job, Prison, or even your own Family..That's selfish of you to even think like that..
This is about standing up to a Government that is totally out of control and knocking some teeth out! It's about the kind of Country your kids and grandkids will inherit, it's about honoring the great men who built this country and the sacrifices they made for us, It's about Dignity,Respect,Courage,Honor it's about doing your fucking duty as a free man!
So no.. I can't respect you or your opinion....Last edited by FAL-SHOOTER; December 29th, 2012 at 07:21 PM.

Re: Preparing the Contingency Plan
There is nothing cowardly to sell your guns right now if you want. Some people will say they are going to pry it from my cold dead hands that's until the authorities are standing on your door step. I was at a gun shop and the guy next to me was going off about this and the clerk said what are you going to do if the come for your guns your wife and children may die because you will not give them up. The guy going off said I am single I don't care but most people who have famalies will not put them in that type of situation and do care.
I by no means want to see a ban but the truth of it is it is coming like it or not. The best case scenario I don't want see anything HAPPEN but if it does something similiar as the last ban, assault rifles and magazines banned for future sales and previous ones bought grandfathered in is probably the best we are going to get.
If I had a crystal ball and knew I would get nothing for what I have now, had to register them and couldn't hand them down I would sell them RIGHT NOW. I am not going to jail as a father and married man my family relies on me. I do belong to the NRA and GOA but my family will always come first over anything.
I am sure I will get roasted for this and hear about what happens when SHTF. I would rather worry about SHTF when it happens than worry about the welfare of my family now. JMO
