NFA Ban Repeal
Sign Now
To: US Congress
I have done extensive research into the National Firearms Act of 1934. My results indicate that it has no use except, to keep law abiding citizens from owning automatic weapons and short barreled weapons. This is acomplished by requiring payment of a high user tax and complicated application forms.
The liberals in Congress are of the assumption that the machinegun ban of 1986 will lessen crime. It is their opinion that criminals will not be able to obtain fully automatic weapons. This view has been proven to be incorrect several times. 99.99\% of all automatic weapons used in crime are converted illegally. The N.F.A. of 1934 made the manufacture of a machinegun illegal, without prior approval of the ATF and payment of the use tax.
The machinegun ban of 1986 made it illegal for the ATF to collect the tax on the production of a new machinegun for private use. This eliminated any new (legal) machineguns from entering into the market. This law had 2 effects:
1. It hurt the law abiding citizen by driving up the price of legal machineguns
2. It created a hugh market for the illegal machineguns that criminals prefer to use.
Based on the above results, the honest citizens of this country would be safer if all restrictions on firearms ownership were removed

The short barreled nonsense alone is reason enough to repeal this short-sighted, outdated impediment of liberty and states' tenth anendment. There was no basis 75 years ago, and none today!

Though i do think that the NFA of 1986 is completly unjust, there should in fact be some restrictions. But hell, if i want to take a file and make my bushmaster full auto, then thats my damn right under the 2nd amendment

I believe you should lift the ban on the manufacturing of NFA firearms and allow them under the current registation conditions. This would be the best of both worlds; it would dramatically reduce prices of NFA items for law abiding citizens and at the sam

The 1986 machine gun ban is absolutely absurd because it prevents law-abiding citizens from buying brand new machine guns. The machine gun ban prevents many gun enthusiasts from purchasing the machine guns of their choice.
