That's just conspiracy theory. The government has no appetite for such a thing, not even a tiny bit. The best we could hope for is an extremely well funded voluntary buy-back program. Offer a thousand bucks each no questions asked (and no silly loopholes like turning in empty rocker launcher tubes, and exclusions for newly created weapons) and we could take a huge number of guns off the streets. Would cost a fair amount of money, sure, but at the scale of the federal government as a non-recurring cost it is entirely feasible. Economically, I mean, not politically.
- lotsoweiners 2y agoWow $1000! That sounds like an easy way for me to turn one gun into multiple guns.
- rootusrootus 2y agoPresumably it goes hand in hand with controls on new weapons. I thought that went without saying, but clearly I was mistaken.
