Youre pretending this doesnt add additional restrictions.

It defines terms for a law that already imposes those restrictions.

And I never said or implied anything about "adding additional restrictions", just that a private party likely would not violate the rule by selling one personal firearm for a profit (assuming some things, like that he didn't buy the firearm and treat it like it was an investment to make a profit in the first place, which has always violated this law).

This rule doesn't have anything to do with that question, so I can't answer it.


Correct, because the language seems to change the entire field of who can sell relics, antiques, muzzle loaders and black powder guns.

So as long as I don’t sell the gun for more than I paid for it I’m good?

As long as the gubment doesnt see any other "flags" which point to commercial activity youre fine.

I'm sure this EO was done to help us poor gunowners and the ambiguity will work in our favor.

My comments weren't judging the law. They were an objective analysis of what that law is, not its propriety or goodness/evilness.
Dude. This is some AggieHank level 'I didn't say what I said' weaseling.

No. I even posted a disclaimer on page 3

quote:

Also, just to clarify for the boomers and dullards, me explaining how this law works and how regulations work isn't an endorsement of the law itself. I'm not personally in favor of these laws. However, they do exist so it's possible to dislike the laws while still understanding how they apply in reality, which is what I am doing.

There is a lot of work to do with disinformation dissemination like we saw in OP (and the source used in OP), which is used to create emotional triggers (anger, fear, etc.) in boomers and dullards. I'm trying to help them come back to a rational reality.

Yet, youre claiming it does nothing but clarify.

Sounds like advocacy.

I used to think he did this shite on purpose, today I am starting to believe he really has some massive blind spots.

How?

"This regulation clarifies and defines terms".

Explain to me how that above quote is in any way advocacy.

I know.

The problem is you claim to:
quote:

explaining how this law works
while ignoring the practaclities of how the government conducts it's buisness.

It's a bit like saying "The patriot act is fine, it's never going to be used for US citizens, the no-fly list will never be abused, and FISA will never be misused. It's right there in the law!"

Next up, you'll tell us the ACA made medical care more affordable.

Youre literally arguing that this doesnt change anything.

I never said nor implied this, however.

In fact I even gave my personal opinion that I didn't like the law.

quote:

I never made any predictions about future behaviors, either.

I did go through one hypothetical with someone melting, which is what led to the disclaimer actually, just to explain how presumptions work because he was confused about how this works.

You literally argued the law was limited.

You left that part out. Now you're expanding the discussion beyond selling a gun for profit.

Try again.

Even Stevie Wonder can see that won't be the case.

Actually, I argued how the post he replied to was limited.

Discussion = this thread, not the law/reg being discussed.

My favorite is making suppressors an NFA item. You would think less noise would benefit society.

I still dont get the stupidity of the pistol brace rule.
