It's an important step as it's the first roll back of government intervention in the lives of gun owners. Everyone here is already now looking forward to the next step.
Actually James, would you believe the government rolled back a regulation once before. While it was not a registry, it seems back in the teens you had to have a permit to buy and own a gun. The government repealed the law on the 26 th. of May, 1921. I found this interesting. Of course, it was reintroduced years later as the FAC. [/quote] Ha, learn something new every day. Quebec is threatening to take the federal government to court to stop destruction of the data. Bastards!!

You gotta wonder what good that would do. Once the registry is over, a particular gun could be sold legally x number of times without being registered. What would be the point of out dated records. As it is, there are many guns which do not have any serial number or identification. Sure, they supplied ID stickers if a gun didn't have a serial number, but many people didn't bother putting them on or they have fallen off. So not sure what keeping old records would accomplish. But hey, it's politicians.

I used to go up to a fishing camp on a remote lake in Ontario years ago. The was a Remington 742 rifle sitting there at all times with a loaded magazine next to it. They told me there was problems with bears.
I went up the year after the long gun registration law went into effect and the rifle wasn't there anymore. I asked and was told they still had it of course it just wasn't out in plain sight nor of course had it been registered.

Man as bad as it is here with gun laws I guess we should be happy that we don't have "the least restrictive sporting guns regulations in the world" !
We can buy and sell as unlicensed individuals both "sporting guns" and all the others-handguns as well, among other residents of the same state here without any paperwork or other government intrusion.Its only the the interstate sales that get the paperwork (4473) and NICS call and thats supposed to disappear from any Permanent record.
Registration has always been the first step to confiscation,we should all learn from the lesson in Canada what a long hard road they will have to get rid of the laws that did nothing to stop crime .Most importantly every gun owner should, fight for every gun-not "well I only have "sporting guns" so the black rifle/hand gun bans don't affect me attitude".

Dave, you are absolutely right. Registration is the first step to confiscation. That's what they did 15 years ago to a large proportion of handguns here. While I only own hunting guns, we are all in this together as gun owners. It's not really about guns, it's about property rights and freedoms, at least up here.

I should also add that there are now 6 States including my own that have told the Feds to stuff their gun regs. At this time any firearms made in Arizona and sold to residents in the State of Arizona are exempt from Federal regulation per State law.
BTW: If anyone is interested there's the "Big Sandy" machine gun shoot that open to the public this weekend in Western Arizona.

Jim I don't know if it's true but I heard that Montana told the feds to ram it up their arse too.

Thanks Jim. I will be not only sending this to all of my friends outside of doublegunshop but I will also be talking with my district state representative, who is a personal friend of mine. I suggest that all of you do the same. It's time we take back our country.

I don't understand this post. A friend with a Pal registered a gun just last week. It seems the original poster meant that a bill to scrap the registry was started, but it is still in effect.
