Any effect would be a good effect, even in you completely halted the manufacture of certain types of guns and cut off selling them to people, thats something that could be done. There are a million ways we could do something to improve control and regulation.

I personally think that things like no waiting period gun show sales should be forbidden, and ammunition should not be saleable without demostrated proof of gun ownership in that exact caliber.

The crazy relative would have to travel nearly 300 miles to get to my house...no chance of that happening.

As for demonstratable proof of ownership of a certain caliber gun, are you suggesting that you show up at the place of ammunition sale with your firearm?? That begging for more problems...

300 miles.... not that far for someone who who really cares....

(just a joke, hope you never have to deal with crazy relatives unless you want to)

Just bring your registration and insurance card. Easy, schmeasy.

Aren't you placing a lot of trust in the fact that you don't think that would happen? 300 miles is no big deal, 5 hour drive.

I'm sure mrs Lanza had absolutely no conception that such a thing would happen either, but it did.

I'm suggesting that proof of ownership be presented to buy ammunition. A gun regitration in your name with the correct firearm listed. Also, I would ban internet sales of ammunition shipped to individuals. Everything must happen in person, and an original document displayed, I'm thinking along the lines of using a drivers license to buy alchohol, that level of bother, which is not much.
Everything would have to match up though, no discrepencies, addresses accurate, weapon accurate, ect. Special ammunition could be ordered, but only shipped to a gun store, followed by the same process of verifying you actually legally own the weapon that the rounds will work with.

Why is it the same people who want voter ID laws as so against gun ID laws?
