    Yes, you are, but I don't care as I don't know you.

    You are correct, the country is burning down to the ground. Far more than just 2A - over-taxation, over-regulation, no freedom (of assembly, speech, religion and a lot more), etc. Problem is, that most of us will comply in spite of the internet tough guys posturing. Have to figure out how to play the compliance game on all fronts while working on the end game - again, much more than just guns at stake here.

    We no longer have the ability to elect our leaders. The judicial system no longer creates and enforces laws consistent with the Constitution. Tyranny is here!
    Personally, I believe it's time to act locally and ultimately push the state to invoke 10A as I cannot hope to influence things federally.

    OP, you are a firearm owner and one of the reason's why this country is doomed. Instead of doing something positive, you want to know how to comply.

    I have no respect for a gun owner who is so quick to comply with our new "masters." You should be ashamed of yourself, OP. You do get an ignore from me, so welcome to my ignore list.

    Once I again, I can't help but to be dickish on this. I find it very demoralizing for you to take your stance.

    Obama wasn't even able to capitalize on the worst scenario that I personally could imagine- the horrific massacre of Elementary Students. Gun sales are at an all time high, with an ever growing population genuinely believing they need firearms for protection, and this isn't subsiding.

    Instead of seeking better ways to protect your rights, you're here asking how to comply with laws that don't even yet exist. WTF? I guess maybe I should bounce on over to the Diesel forums and see if they can tell me how to convert my 1 ton into an electric pussycat to comply with some imagined green new deal that doesn't yet exist. For as weakly represented as gun owners may be, I'm truly f'd when it comes to owning a diesel.

    Plain and simple -- if it does not have a third pin, it is NOT and cannot be an assault weapon... PERIOD.

    For those who need the tech - the third pin is for the auto sear which is needed for full auto operation.

    You are misconstruing what I am saying. I am actively doing several things to protect my rights on a lot more things than just guns. I hope that all of you internet tough guys are too. Unfortunately, until we do change MANY things as to how we are governed, most of us will comply.

    I'm not going to waste time and effort figuring out what they will "allow" us to own and use and under what conditions they will require.

    When the shit comes to pass, I'll figure out my moves. I bet all of us will end up buying a few "compliant" guns and magazines, as close as possible to the "non compliant" stuff we will surely have squirreled away, so we can keep going to ranges and stay as sharp as we can.

    If you OBEY the left, you are part of the problem. They have been chipping away at the 2nd for years. If they keep it up we will be in for a fight and, complying will no longer be an issue.

Kind of pistol upper/rifle lower...
