Stupid me, I replied to the wrong person, meant for the original reply to be in response to Brendon and I was actually saying the same as you did. Then did not look back when you responsed to me. Sorry for the misunderstanding.
 
Again, no problem.

You should see me, in real life.

Inserted a word into the reading of the Lesson Sunday.And omitted the correct word.
 
Obtaining it is a background check, although the record of the sale is them kept in a gun registry by the government.
Canada had a registry and canned it because it was a waste of money. they have a small number of gun owners. why would we not want to learn from their experience?
All laws present enforcement problems for those who done want to follow them
no, it doesn’t present a problem at all. I know a fellow who drove for years without insurance and possibly a drivers license. he only spoke about it when he got the insurance. i asked him didn’t it concern him. he said no, he considered it a cost savings.

I knew a fellow who is into drugs and did time in jail, quite often, he considered it 3 hots and a cot. I believe he was suicidal but I can’t reach him. He seems to be doing better since he got out this time. He has only been out about 2 months. Please pray for R to be released from his addiction. He is a good man when not in the grasp of the drug, but aren’t they all…
And I would point out, the seller would rarely have any interest in not reporting the sale, as that gun would for ever be linked to him.
If it was linked to them in the first place. All they have to do is say is it was stolen.

They discontinued registry of non-restricted long-guns, hunting rifles and shotguns that are not semi-automatic.

I would certainly say that non-semi automatic rifles and 3-round semi-auto shotguns (eg Remington 1100) do not need to be registered.

They would need a police report of the theft.

BTW: as you point out, gun ownership in Canada is not that wide spread compared to Switzerland. So it does seem like the Swiss model is more applicable to us. Have the Swiss had a problem with cost overruns on their registry?
 
You might want to ask New Orleans residents about “temporarily” confiscating all weapons.

Thanks, no.

why, there is no requirement and who is to say it is a traceable gun in the first place?
Have the Swiss had a problem with cost overruns on their registry?
can’t say, I don’t follow Swiss gun laws
To record the serial numbers and the owners. To create a database to track the guns.
if only 4% responded to a mandatory law to turn in mags, how many do you think will turn in the entire gun?
The only reference is “those who live by the sword, will die by the sword.”
no, there is a reference to sell your cloak and go buy a sword in a different gospel. many people want to combine these, but one is from Luke and one is from Mathew. One is talking about when he sent the disciples out to preach and the other is in reference to aggression.
and punish the person.
we don’t enforce the laws on the books now, so what good are more laws. you want something done. preach to have the prosecutors stop dropping the gun charges for easy convictions.
 
Third, test fire results do not provide accurate data for law enforcement.
Exactly, ‘test firing’ only shows that the firearm works. Ballistic fingerprinting ( the matching of a round to a gun) only works for shots fired recently from the firearm. The very act of firing a shot changes the finger print, as does a good cleaning. Very similar to the police trying to match tire tread marks left at the scene of a crime. The tread will be substantially different if the car has another 6 months and 3000 miles on it.

And of course, if the person purchased a new barrel after the ‘test firing’ any ballistic fingerprinting is meaningless. ( just as if the person had purchased a new set of tires for their car)
 
I had not thought of such restrictions on all ammo sales, but since we were starting from the Swiss model, I figured we should be complete on the description.
why would ammo not be available on the black market? Not only that, but used ammo can ( and commonly is) reloaded.
 
Thank God for great Christian warriors like Charles Martel and John III Sobieski!
 
Sorry, don’t know if you said, but do you have access to a shooting range? Many ranges here in the U.S. rent firearms by the hour or day. And they all host classes. Again, if you can convince your wife to take a class with you, it might start to overcome her resistance to firearms. Even if she refuses, you can go. Over time, if she sees you have a recreational activity that you enjoy, she may decide to share it.
 
In California, the DOJ already has a record of who owns what firearm. The FBI can easily access this information as well. And now there is microstamping. Further registering of guns is redundant and unnecessary.
