I'm interested in signing but all I get from the link is:
"We the People wish to see the National Firearms Act of 1934 repealed in order to remove regulations on our 2nd amendment rights, increase national economic strength, and provide protection against threats to our national security."

Now I'm not familiar with the 1934 National Firearms Act or what it actually does....anyone care to elaborate? Yes, I could spend the time to research it, but I am busy applying for a new job and have a ton of apps to get in. If you want my signature make it easy for me. ; )

In a nutshell....(and I'll probably mess this up and/or miss something)

It defines, regulates and taxes machine guns, short barrel rifles, short barrel shotguns, silencers, "destructive devices" and "any other weapon".

Here's a link to the ATF

How about not having to pay an additional $200 for a silencer due to the NFA tax stamp.  Or the mountainous amount of paperwork required to purchase one.  Or having to get a CLEO signature for said paperwork. Or...

Correct, this is specifically directed as suppressors.

definitely remove the tax, especially before they adjust it for inflation from 1934.  :yike:

Done been harping on this for years. NFA was unneeded when it passed because Prohibition was already repealed and crime from Machine guns were already on the out.
It at almost 100k now just a couple more thousand and it will make it.
Might while I'm there make a petition to undo Clintons Brady act crap.  :tup:
Might too want to repeal Reagans ban on our country being able to manufacture them as well. Bring in more decent paying Jobs. Manufacturing stuff. Booya! :tup:
I did for those that want here

"When my bow falls, so shall the world. When me heart ceases to pump blood to my body, it will all come crashing down. As a hunter, we are bound by duty, nay, bound by our very soul to this world. When a hunter dies we feel it, we sense it, and the world trembles with sorrow. When I die, so shall the world, from the shock of loosing such a great part of ones soul." Ezekiel, Okeanos Hunter

In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.
