saying they would pay you $5,000 for each AR you own. A "buy back"

hypothetical of course

would you sell them back to the Government?

You can’t sell them back to the government because they never owned them.

Yes, I’d go to the crazy gun dealer in alverado and buy all the cheap ARs they had in stock. Sell the to the gov @ $5000 each, then buy what I wanted.

If you knew my Etrace success rate you wouldn't be worried about this anyway.

Hypothetically, I hope you've bought everything you want because you won't want to buy anymore once that ransom has come out

If there’s not a ban on them, I could make a fortune buying $400 DPMS rifles, then selling them to the govt for $5000, pocketing $4600, which I would reinvest in more DPMS rifles, which I would then sell to the government. Eventually the government will be out of money.... oh wait....

If they were going to “buy back” my rifle mandatorily, its boogaloo time.


The secret to a long life is to try not to shorten it.

If the gov offered $5k each, the ones in the stores would suddenly also be worth $5k+ each.

Glad someone spelled out a free market economy. You could only sell what you had at that moment, and you wouldn’t want to buy any more.

Yes, Sir. At an insanely inflated price. But then, that's the Government.

Beto said that the nice folks in Texas were actually offering to give him their AR's.
Apparently, he keeps hearing "Come and Take It." grin
