They will start with registration and mental screening. But, even that will not stop anyone who's determined to arm himself.
I expect their main focus to be upon making magazine and ammunition unavailable.
Then we'll all be armed with high tech ar-15 clubs.
Mags unavailable YES, Ammunition Unavailable NO.
The thing is at this time we already have enough Firearms, Mags, Ammunition to easily WIN the coming Civil War or Revolution. So anything they do at this time is too little and too late.
Also Firearms are not the only weapon Patriots can use in their fight for freedom.
ANFO and IEDs would make most effective weapons.
The biggest problem with Explosives is they are not selective and have a bad tendency to damage, injure and kill what they were not intended to damage, injure or kill. But they are fully capable of sending the Country into the dark ages.
And if Patriots are forced into using Explosives then the only thing the Liberals would have accomplished is jumping from the Frying Pan into a very hot Fire.
