[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You know how many times these gun shops been broken into and guns stolen. They need to close them all down.[/quote]

So where do I - a non criminal - buy my guns after you’ve shut down the shops because your police won’t control criminals?

I mean, as long as we’re eliminating each other’s rights, can we also close polling places because I don’t like the outcome of local elections? You’re cool with that in exchange for closing gun stores, right? Tit for tat, and all….[/quote]

How many guns does a non-criminal like you need?[/quote]

I [i]collect[/i] guns. Just like some people collect stamps or beanie babies or pointless Masters degrees. I enjoy it.

The guns I choose to collect are already expensive, and get more expensive each year, so it’s also a stable asset that continually appreciates.

But in order to purchase them, they MUST be purchased through an FFL. But you want to shut down FFL’s.

So where does that leave me? [/quote]

You register as a collector.[/quote]

I already AM a designated collector with the state of Maryland.

That just means I can purchase multiple guns at time, rather than the current one-per-month that most Maryland residents are limited to. I registered as a designated collector because I frequently acquire multiple guns estate sales, where keeping a specific lot of guns together as part of their own collection is vital to maintaining the collective value of them as a set.

But even as a collector, I still need to go through a dealer to transfer them to me. If there are no gun dealers left because they’ve all been sued by a punitive AG, that’s a serious problem. Not just for me as a collector, but for ANY person who wants to acquire a gun legally and above board.

If you close gun dealers, you will basically force all gun transactions underground. Is that really the solution you want? Because then there’s no records, no background checks, no waiting periods, nothing. I don’t we’d be better served in that world that some of you seem to want to create by shutting down gun stores.
