Yeah, that’s what so many don’t get. There’s no due process. No grandfathering. No buyback.But that's just it. There is nothing to stop Trump or another POTUS from 'banning' something by executive fiat. Simply direct the interim ATF director to re interpret a rule. Easy peasy Japanesey. The Elmers and statist bootlicks will go along, as usual.
Complete circumvention of due process via wrongful redefining of what makes a machine gun a machine gun. What’s to stop them later from banning all semi-auto’s? A simple belt loop or rubber band turns your black semi-auto sporting rifle, into a blood thirsty, full-auto, mass murder device.
That’s just too much power to be in the hands of common folk.
