The erosion of gun rights has been scary enough in Massachusetts the past decade. Today I'm only allowed to choose from a handful of manufacturer's who are willing to bend over backwards to meet the state's "safety" requirements. No more Kimbers, no more Springfields, etc. No more new mags over 10 rounds. Heck, I can't even buy ammo mail order anymore. And all this occurred in spite of gun-friendly Republican governors over the last 20 (?) years.
So what's going to happen when Patrick takes office? Within a year or two the Dem's will either ban everything or make it so tough for manufacturer's that there'll be nothing left to buy. I predict the following new legislation in short order:
- Magazines limited to three rounds.
- No barrels shorter than 6".
- No polymer frames.
- No night sights.
- No scopes
- No rail-mounted lights
- No laser grips
- No calibers larger than 9mm
- No semi-auto rifles of any kind
- No more than one purchase per year per household
- No firearm sales at gun shows
- No ammo sales at gun shows
- No people at gun shows
- No gun shows
So I figure now's the time to seriously consider purchasing anything on your wish list. If you wait much longer you won't be allowed to own it, never mind buy it.
