Will you sell your ivory grips before the ban?

[fat tom]

For those of you with multiple pairs of ivories,what will you do? Sell them now? Keep them on guns that you will never sell,but leave to friends or family members? Ignore the law and sell them later (I don't guess too many will admit to this publicly,wouldn't be real smart I guess). Any other ideas as to what to do with them?
f.t.

I don't know what you are talking about. This ain't the place to talk!

I hadn't given the issue much thought, but your post prompted me to look for more related info. I found a page with relevant links covering both current and proposed regulations, along with pointer toward advocacy groups. The info is locate on a reputable ivory dealer's web site. I've bought from them previously, but have no affiliation (past or present) beyond that of customer. Just passing along the info.

Ivory comes from many sources....

Since this is an Executive Order, all you have to do is wait until we get a President with some common sense to issue a new Executive Order overturning this one.

So I peeled all of these off and pitched em in the camp fire.

So, makes me ponder what you folks are going to do when they make your guns illegal.

Congress can overturn this type of nonsense.
If they have the stones, and act soon enough.

I'm so honest I sold my elephant. Took a beating on it, too.

And I sold my walrus, Chumley. hated to get rid of the little feller, but the law's the law.

Look at it this way: fish is a lot more expensive than Purina Elephant Chow.

If I ever had any, they would have been lost in a tragic boating accident.......

 

[Minnehaha]

Does this mean that I am in danger of being stopped and brought in for questioning because these micarta grips look like antique ivory.

Take a lesson from Prohibition. Demand for booze dropped and law enforcement had nothing to do.
