Gun tax law question

[RudyN]

Someone told me that the congress was trying to slide a new law by us. He said that they are talking about mandatory registration of all guns(long and handguns) and then charge us a tax for each one we own. Has anyone else heard this? I am hoping this is a nasty rumor. If not, its time to email my elected officials.

If you feel strongly about your right to "...keep and bear arms..." for hunting, recreation, self-defense etc. you probably should have contacted your elected officials a long time ago and continued to do so on a regular basis rather than waiting for a draconian gun control measure - rumored or otherwise - to gain foothold. There's no time like the present.

while this one is just a rumor,there is indeed a constant attack on our 2nd ammendment rights. Anti-gun activists are at the highest levels of our government. They will stop at nothing to take them from us. Join the NRA if you aren't already a member. Check out the MGO website there is a ton of info on there that will help keep up with the latest attacks on gun owners. Inform yourself and anyone else that will listen.
