We need the same kind of bureaucracy over guns as we have over autos; namely, registration renewals, inspections and insurance companies providing basic liability insurance.

Welcome to Blogcritics "Gun talk"!
I'm switching my choice of personal weapon from the Taurus Judge to the Bond Arms Snake Slayer. Like the Judge, the Snake Slayer takes .410 shotgun loads as well as .45, but since it's a Derringer style (over under) it weighs considerably less (about 20 oz. vs. 32) and is quite flat for better concealment.
Which loads to use is a question, but many writers recommend a load of 7 1/2 birdshot in the first barrel, with a .45 in the second. That way if an aspiring carjacker approaches the birdshot in the face oughta discourage him (or even kill or blind the guy). Experts advise a horizontal waist holster for easy draw or just carrying the Snake Slayer on the seat next to you.
I'm kinda afraid to test fire that Beast for fear of breaking my 75 year old elbow, and would probably await an actual threat. But I can probably test fire with light low-brass loads.
But if any mystery character saunters up to my car he's likely to get a nasty surprise. Maybe he was just trying to sell me a dozen roses. Oh well. I'll plead innocent. I'm at least as innocent as George Zimmerman or Johannes Mehserle.
And if it's a mistake I'll apologize profusely to the family: that should fix it up. Right?
I'm sorry. I was just standing my ground. Sorry.
Thanks for visiting "Gun Talk".

Why apologize? The guy never should have approached you.

Just in case there's any problem getting the gun a guy wants, you may be able to use that "3D Printer". No kidding. That thing makes a prototype from engineering drawings. I saw on TV where they made a complete AK-47 (though they had to add a couple available steel parts), and it actually worked for a few shots before it came apart!
Wow! No more worries about anti-gun laws!
And if you just want to go down to the Mall and off some citizens before you eat a cop bullet, what the heck! You don't need any more than that!
Thanks for visiting "Gun Talk". Come on back, y'all.

I predict that Gabby Giffords new PAC for gun laws will be a turning point in US gun laws.
She's an experienced politician with excellent contacts, and she promises to raise money to counter the blandishments of the NRA.
This may be the biggest threat ever to the NRAs power base.

Assault rifles have no place in the civilian population-period.
