RINOS, might happen...
name me 10 republican Senators that would vote for this.

I'll give you 3, 4 at best...Collins, Romney, Toomey and MAYBE Murkowski

and i'd bet at a minumum Steve Daines (MT) is a no...if so that makes 11 republican votes needed.

I didn't read the entire bill but according to the article it involves background checks. That's a long way from the gestapo coming to get my guns. "THEY" have been coming for my guns my entire life according to the other gunowners I talk to. I still have all of mine and have never had a problem purchasing one. I do have a problem finding ammo to hunt with because apparently the world is ending and some folks want to bury it in their bunkers.

From the Fox News story:

"Certainly hundreds of thousands -- maybe millions -- of people walking the streets today because we passed [the 1994 Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act] would be dead," Schumer, who authored the Brady Act requiring background checks on all U.S. firearm buyers, said during the briefing.

If that many lives were saved by the Brady Bill, I would not be surprised if this bill results in a negative number of firearm deaths.

You're right, it's a long way, but it's the first step.

This is unenforceable without a federal registry, that would be step 2. As for step 3, take a look at Australia and now more recently Canada...

I don't like the sky is falling attitude either but you give an inch and they take a mile. This will not do anything but cause us issues. The nuts and felons will continue to get guns the way they currently do... through illegal means and methods.

If it passes any firearms sold prior to the passage of this would in essence be untrackable without enacting some type of registry.
Any firearms sold after, they’re going to know exactly where it’s at, and it better be there.

Then you better read it. It will force all private gun sales to a FFL to complete a 4473.

Yup. Totally unenforceable without a searchable registry of every firearm in the country. It's not "common sense" it's lunacy.
