"Thought you needed some kind of documentation before you get them ? Are they really completely unregistered , documented or anything then or is this a state by state thing ? As for criminals , if owning a gun instantly marked you out as a criminal then some would reconsider as for the rest , some incentive to hand them over and a stiff punishment if they do not . Press I do not think would be a problem , pro-gun extremists always seem worse than anti-gun ones as far as the media is concerend ( worst you can say about the antis is that they are living in some dream world and are a little naive , compared to the worst sterotype of red-neck , shotgun totin ' gun nut is not really a comparison ) . More importantly you would n't instigate the gun ban unless a significant majority were in favour in which case the press ( national at least ) would be more likely to be on your side . Attempting a gun ban on a country that does n't want it on the whole is undemocratic and just asking for trouble anyway-regardless of any moral consideration you are playing right inot the hand sof the pro-gunner 's worst fears of government bullying ."
"Sure , , , ,I have more than a few that was purchased from a individual , , , ,no registration , license , no paperwork.I hand him the money and he hands me the gun.All legal and absolutley no paper trail . As far as guns purchased from a licensed dealer , all that is documented is the info for a background check , And by law that info must be destroyed within , I think 90 days . Kind of puts a snag in the whole confiscation idea , ,ehhhh ?"
