NRA calling for review

<< < (2/3) > >>

RLMoeller:
Some things I was hearing today before the NRA published that statement make it sounds like they have been negotiating a trade for National Reciprocity.  Unless they have already gotten some sort of agreement it would be odd to announce what they did, how they did.  You don't' negotiate in public and you don't give away what you plan to use for negotiations.    I disagree with that trade and I imagine many here do as well.

DenmanShooter:
The ATF will likely not want to contradict themselves.  So they will either not review or if they do review they will agree with themselves so as not to lose face.  If they reverse themselves it could open the door to all sorts of litigation against THE GOVERNMENT and the ATF themselves.

If they uphold their own decision then it deflates the lawmaker's efforts to ban them.  If they reverse the decision, then no need for legislation.

I doubt this is going anywhere.

I had some similar thoughts

Mntnman:
Well, I read the statement and then emailed them my thoughts. I think it probable that I will be ending my membership with the organization. I think other, smaller organizations better represent my interests.

Gunscribe:
This seems to be the idea at the NRA. It was originally an ATF issue and they should be the ones to address it rather than poorly crafted legislation that could include after market triggers. Not saying I agree, just presenting the thought process at NRA HQ.
