we'll they already stopped the import of Garands...I guess we will only be able buy US made from now on. Until they make it impossible for companies here to do business. it's a backdoor attack to get guns out of the everyday citizens hands.

That article says the treaty is to target is "illicit trade in conventional weapons that benefits terrorists and rogue agents."
Illicit is defined as illegal. Like many other anit-gun laws, this is designed to outlaw illegal sales. Wow! Really? What a revelation!
I want to play this game too.
My Proclamation.
I decree that from this day forward, all illegal activity is hereby outlawed!

I did not think I could hate a administration more than the Clintons...sadly I was wrong
