Gun Companies Refuse Sales to State Governments with Strict Gun Laws

You folks that don't support the 2nd amendment need to form a line to the left.

@H2O MAN,

In the Heller decision, Scalia stated that gun control was acceptable. Must he line up on the left?

@Advocate,

We currently have gun controls.

Elected officials need to focus on enforcing the laws on the books because
there is no need what so ever to come up with any additional restrictions.

Obama's plan is to ignore the constitution and the 2nd amendment... his plan
is to confiscate gun from law abiding citizens leaving criminals and government
with guns. His government is criminal in nature so it's seems natural to do this.

@H2O MAN,

The objective here is to weaken/destroy the United States and the idea of starting a civil war by abrogating the 2'nd amendment is merely a means. If Obunga thought he could **** the U.S. over sufficiently for his purposes by outlawing hamburgers, he'd do that and if he thought he could accomplish his goals by outlawing abortion or by implementing some other right-wing idea, he'd do that just as quickly and with the same ****-eating grin on his face.

No, just your idiotic reply.

You are ill equipped, why do you even try?

@farmerman,

These companies are not in favor of anarchy just because they refuse to open themselves up to lawsuits. These companies are ensuring that the laws enforced onto it's people are also followed by the government overseeing those people. If you read your 2nd Amendment rights, "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." Does anything in there say that we can not own a machine gun, or anything like that? No, but it is illegal to own them, now they want to take away "Assault Weapons" when the only thing really in common with the military, is the look. When You pull the trigger, only 1 bullet is fired.

You also say that constituted police forces, most police officers are good law-abiding citizens; however, these same police departments both protect and help officers that are abusing their power. Most police officers have very minimal training in firearms, most that become proficient with these weapons, take time to go to the range and practice more. In the end what it comes down to though, is people have a right to defend themselves, and no matter how many cops we have, it takes time for them to respond. The guns we own and try to protect these rights because we need to be able to defend ourselves and others from criminals, without guns we can't do either. The law's being passed will only further the mass shootings, if you look at where most gun involved crimes occur, most are in towns that already have gun bans similar or more severe than current legislation from Obama. If these areas with the highest gun crime rates are in places with existing gun bans, doesn't that show you that punishing law-abiding citizens will just invite more violence?

Do some real research and make a proper statement before just listening to what you hear. Most info you hear from word of mouth is just one side trying to sway you to their opinion, learn the facts for yourself, don't believe the hype. You'll be very surprised as to what you find, I know I was.

@Advocate,

There is nothing wrong with actual gun control, but gun control isn't whats happening. Their just punishing hard-working Americans that have done nothing wrong. They need to enforce and fix the issues with current gun control.

Just a prime example. In Nevada, you don't have to register your weapon (this makes it so the government doesn't know who has what); however, in Clark County (Las Vegas, and surrounding areas) has a registration in place. The goal is to compare current gun crimes with registered weapons, which would solve cases of homicide and such. The program costs us over $2 Million a year for this program; still, instead of solving crimes, it's actually just caused people to register their weapons, and since it's been in place, 0 crimes have been solved by using it. People that use guns for illegal purposes don't register their weapons, they don't buy them legally (most of the time), and they don't care what laws are passed. They need to make laws that pertain to punishing violators, not punish those that will follow the laws.

They didn't discontinue all sales, they discontinued sales of weapons in violation to the laws passed in NY, but kept current customer orders that were pending completion and cancelled all NY government orders.

The NFA has been made law by the USSC not the Constitution so there is precedent

Is this a bad day for reading MP4LIFE?

@gungasnake,

I was reading the comments on the "Police Loophole",99% of those people are ill informed and not too bright, apparently. Barrett is the only manufacturer on the liost. (I dont think SWAT teams use 50 cals in urban assaults)

I imagine that NY is having no problem acquiring replacement guns and new weapons.

OMG.... What will they do without those 114 that have decided to never sell to them again?

NY and other governments can only buy from 131,997 entities with Federal Firearm licenses now. They are obviously going to have a tough time meeting their requirement of 3 competitive bids. </sarcasm>

Serbu Firearms makes guns, including .50 BMG rifles. Someone from the News York Police Department contacted them:

Serbu replied:

XXXX,
Yes, I got the message and tried to return the call but got no answer. I appreciate your interest in our BFG-50A; I’m sure it would be an excellent addition to your department’s arsenal. Unfortunately, we have a policy of selling to state law enforcement agencies only what is allowed to be sold to private citizens in that state. Since the passage of the NY SAFE act, the BFG-50A is considered an assault weapon and as such is no longer available to private citizens in the state of New York. Therefore we have to respectfully decline to supply your department with BFG-50A rifles.

Regards,
Mark Serbu”

. Seems you wish to argue with the NAtional Firerms ACt of 1939? When you quotede the second amendment you also failed to show where it says in there that reasonable controls CANNOT be emplaced .

AS technology continues to develop better ways to kill, you seem to embrace that these newer weapons should automatically be included under the 2A.
I disagree so we wont see this issue from the same reality base.

If you wish to fight the NFA and have it declared unconstitutional then we have a fight. I see the ability to add certain weapons to the NFA, not weaseling out with excuses to make stinger missiles available to kids.

You guys have been mostly silent on how we protect our citizens and kids, youve only repeated the mantra of "more guns, more guns".
