98Z5V Posted May 8, 2014 Report Posted May 8, 2014 Yeah - and there was an article not long ago about the backlog. The backlog is so huge that ATF is hiring a bunch of temp workers to try to clear it. I don't think the "backlog" is ever going to be "cleared" - not with what the politicos keep trying to pull.

98Z5V Posted May 9, 2014 Report Posted May 9, 2014 It's never gonna happen, brother, and the law is the law. Specifically, 1934, 1968, and 1986. The 1994 stuff is gone now - Sun-setted. You battle this: 1791 The Bill of Rights, including the Second Amendment -- "A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed." gains final ratification. 1837 Georgia passes a law banning handguns. The law is ruled unconstitutional and thrown out. 1865 In a reaction to emancipation, several southern states adopt "black codes" which, among other things, forbid black persons from possessing firearms. 1871 The National Rifle Association (NRA) is organized around its primary goal of improving American civilians' marksmanship in preparation for war. 1927 Congress passes a law banning the mailing of concealable weapons. 1934 The National Firearms Act of 1934 regulating only fully automatic firearms like sub-machine guns is approved by Congress. 1938 The Federal Firearms Act of 1938 places the first limitations on selling ordinary firearms. Persons selling guns are required to obtain a Federal Firearms License, at an annual cost of $1, and to maintain records of the name and address of persons to whom firearms are sold. Gun sales to persons convicted of violent felonies were prohibited. 1968 The Gun Control Act of 1968 - "...was enacted for the purpose of keeping firearms out of the hands of those not legally entitled to possess them because of age, criminal background, or incompetence." -- Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms The Act regulates imported guns, expands the gun-dealer licensing and record keeping requirements, and places specific limitations on the sale of handguns. The list of persons banned from buying guns is expanded to include persons convicted of any non-business related felony, persons found to be mentally incompetent, and users of illegal drugs. 1972 The Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms is created listing as part of its mission the control of illegal use and sale of firearms and the enforcement of Federal firearms laws. ATF issues firearms licenses and conducts firearms licensee qualification and compliance inspections. 1977 The District of Columbia enacts an anti-handgun law which also requires registration of all rifles and shotguns within the District of Columbia. 1986The Armed Career Criminal Act (Public Law 99-570) increases penalties for possession of firearms by persons not qualified to own them under the Gun Control Act of 1986. The Firearms Owners Protection Act (Public Law 99-308) relaxes some restrictions on gun and ammunition sales and establishes mandatory penalties for use of firearms during the commission of a crime. The Law Enforcement Officers Protection Act (Public Law 99-408) bans possession of "cop killer" bullets capable of penetrating bulletproof clothing. 1989 California bans the possession of semiautomatic assault weapons following the massacre of five children on a Stockton, CA school playground. 1990 The Crime Control Act of 1990 (Public Law 101-647) bans manufacturing and importing semiautomatic assault weapons in the U.S. "Gun-free school zones" are established carrying specific penalties for violations. 1994 The Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act (Public Law 103-159) imposes a five-day waiting period on the purchase of a handgun and requires that local law enforcement agencies conduct background checks on purchasers of handguns. (ATF's Brady Law web site.) The Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act of 1994 (Public Law 103-322) bans all sale, manufacture, importation, or possession of a number of specific types of assault weapons. 1997 The Supreme Court, in the case of Printz v. United States, declares the background check requirement of the Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act unconstitutional. The Florida Supreme Court upholds a jury's $11.5 million verdict against Kmart for selling a gun to and intoxicated man who used the gun to shoot his estranged girlfriend. Major American gun manufacturers voluntarily agree to include child safety trigger devices on all new handguns. 1998 - June A Justice Department report indicates the blocking of some 69,000 handgun sales during 1977 while Brady Bill pre-sale background checks were required. 1998 - July An amendment requiring a trigger lock mechanism to be included with every handgun sold in the U.S. is defeated in the Senate. But, the Senate approves an amendment requiring gun dealers to have trigger locks available for sale and creating federal grants for gun safety and education programs. 1998 - October New Orleans, LA becomes the first US city to file suit against gun makers, firearms trade associations, and gun dealers. The city's suit seeks recovery of costs attributed to gun-related violence. 1998 - November 12 Chicago, IL files a $433 million suit against local gun dealers and makers alleging that oversupplying local markets provided guns to criminals. 1998 - November 17 A negligence suite against gun maker Beretta brought by the family of a 14-year old boy killed by an other boy with a Beretta handgun is dismissed by a California jury. 1998 - November 30 Permanent provisions of the Brady Act go into effect. Gun dealers are now required to initiate a pre-sale criminal background check of all gun buyers through the newly created National Instant Criminal Background Check (NICS) computer system. 1998 - December 1 The NRA files suit in federal court attempting to block the FBI's collection of information on firearm buyers. 1998 - December 5 President Clinton announces that the instant background check system had prevented 400 illegal gun purchases. The claim is called "misleading" by the NRA.1999 - January Civil suits against gun makers seeking to recover costs of gun-related violence are filed in Bridgeport, Connecticut and Miami-Dade County, Florida. 1999 - May 20 By a 51-50 vote, with the tie-breaker vote cast by Vice President Gore, the Senate passes a bill requiring trigger locks on all newly manufactured handguns and extending waiting period and background check requirements to sales of firearms at gun shows. 1999 - August 24 The Los Angeles County, CA Board of Supervisors votes 3 - 2 to ban the the Great Western Gun Show, billed as the "world's largest gun show" from the Pomona, CA fairgrounds where the show had been held for the last 30 years.

Magwa Posted May 9, 2014 Author Report Posted May 9, 2014 Sorry I don't get it we battle ourselves for not staying viligant on this stuff I have no problem with them regulating machine guns and destructive devices and explosives , I do have a problem with them taking a year to allow a law abiding citizen to have hearing protection and that at the very best is all a supressor is it is not silent! it does not make a gun more dangerous! it does not make anyone who uses them more likley to break a law it is only a helping hand for hearing lose a supressor with regular hearing protection is a great way to save your hearing ,I wish I had gotten onboard 40 years ago. so what is the problem? a antiquated system of doing things ,that is the problem and that is all I am saying is their way is 50 years behind the times.... why do you think we e,file our tax returns and get money back instantly???????/ because that system works.... if you posess a CCW permit it takes about 5 min to check you out and if you are a law abiding person with one you should be able to buy the item and pay the tax at the same time done! Ok i can give them a 21 day waiting period no problem still done for law abiding people with no record or no red flags.....!

Rsquared Posted July 11, 2014 Report Posted July 11, 2014 All you can do is sit back and wait now my man. That's the hardest part. Not to bring you down. But "accepted" probably means at least 6 months to go. More or less. But at least you're on your way.
