I'm as scared of the liberal anti gun fanatics as any one, but I've been researching on the NRA website for a while and I haven't seen any alerts to any national legislation. The HR45 bill has been beat to death on serveral popular progun sites to the point that the administrator usually locks the thread after posting a link to all the other threads covering the same subject(the bill is over 5 years old and has been shot down several times). The gun shops are telling everyone that the sky is falling and you better buy your guns now, even at Wallmart, they are low on ammo. But when you go to the NRA's website, there is only a few state laws concerning guns that are being posted for review. I have to trust teh NRA to separate teh fact from fiction on the emails and anti gun scares I hear. I personally believe that the anti gun rights groups are going to keep trying, and I don't want to take gun ownership for granted, but for the most part, what we are hearing lately has been some creative marketing by gun manufactures and gun dealers to boost sales. I went inot a gun shop teh other day and overheard a salesman telling a customer that before long, you won't be able to buy new fangled high capicity, high power hand guns like the 1911 he was holding. I just looked at him, the elevated price tag on the Springfield he was holding, and turned and left, with my money.
