The ATF has stated their intention to require all pistol-based firearms to be registered as NFA items. 


The ATF has stated their intention to require all pistol-based firearms to be registered as NFA items. Millions of gun owners who previously owned these without needing to register them have vowed not to register. How does will this play out for ATF?

From an avid reader of our blog:

It may take a couple of years, but if it gets to SCOTUS, it most likely will end the way West Virginia vs. EPA did this year, with the court saying that bureaucracy and the SCOTUS is not a law-making body and reminding Congress, again, that if they want a law THEY have to pass it, not dump it off into bureaucratic “Regulations.”

Is it going to take correcting laws by the Executive Branch on a case-by-case basis, or will they eventually get the message and start fixing things voluntarily BEFORE the Court steps in?
