"Red Flag Law" Could Take Guns From Those Deemed Dangerous in North Carolina

[500SNW]

That's true nationwide. No matter what the states say, federal law trumps firearms ownership. Muzzle loaders are all good. Modern black powder rifles, which can be converted to centerfire rifles, are not allowed . . .

Oh boy is that a confusing subject. Been there done that when a guy from New Jersey wanted to buy my BP cap & ball revolver. Best I could figure at the time was that in NJ it was considered a firearm-handgun and buyers living in that state needed to obtain a pistol purchase/permit and buy from another resident or an FFL. For me to ship it to a non-FFL private citizen in NJ would be a violation of NJ law and theoretically, if the transaction was discovered, they could issue a warrant for me. Didndoit. A bigger problem is that there are 50 states with their own rules. Here in Ohio, BP guns are considered firearms same as an AR or Glock. Here in Ohio the Mossberg Shockwave is considered an SBS by the State and ALLEGEDLY requires a FEDERAL Tax Stamp to own within state boundaries. Ehh??? How's that possible? I never understood any of this State vs. Federal gun stuff...nor am I passionate enough about it to risk going through the court system to prove my point that Federal Law trumps State Law.

As of now, there is no bill,

Then why are we here?
If we start a thread every time an anti thinks or talks about restricting guns, this forum will be too cluttered to be of any use.

Ideally, we should see nothing here that does not pertain directly to threats to or protection of or expansion of 2nd Amendment RIGHTS.
That means this forum is about PENDING LEGISLATION and responses from legislators or the actions of legislators or about PENDING CHANGES in carry permit laws and issues.
This forum is about ACTION that can and should be taken to protect or advance the cause of freedom.

We have a discussion going nowhere about a proposed threat to propose a threat.
Let's move on.
