It should worry people that “being responsible” is seen as synonymous with “obey government.”

“Not understanding that at all. Are we really seeing firearms manufacturers lining up to support government regulation of firearms?”

I know of two examples, there are probably more.

1 – Bill Ruger, magazine capacity.

2 – S&W – The infamous ‘Hillary Hole’ in revolvers…

Well-stated Ms. Stevens!

I must seriously question the intentions and agenda of anyone (most especially a government) who wants me weaker and dependent on them.

Hush,

“Out of my cold, dead hands….”

I stopped using that phrase ever since seeing the first “Men in Black” movie.

“What kind of Americans—and gun owners—would we be if we gave up?”
Pathetic losers is what we would be which is why any true patriot will fight endlessly.
Doing nothing is of no value and only helps the left. If you are not fighting the left,then you are really not in the fight and the left has no concern for those who do nothing. Doing noting is just one less the left has to deal with. If you truly believe in the 2A then you will get off your ass and do what you can to help fight the left.

Today the left wants the AR15s and magazines holding >10 rounds.
Tomorrow they’ll want other long guns.
The next day they will want semi-auto pistols of any kind.
Then the rhetoric will proclaim that there really is no need to have any thing remotely close to a gun and then take what ever is left.

They are not and will not ever be satisfied which is why POTG should not give up anything or budge even a tad.
Rather POTG should remain strong and refuse to give in or be swayed by their arguments of foolishness.

“….is the divisive nature of the firearms industry also at fault?”

Not understanding that at all. Are we really seeing firearms manufacturers lining up to support government regulation of firearms? Are firearms and parts makers really ‘divided’ on gun regulation?

I get that there are Fudds and liberal gun owners (my brother among them) who think some infringements on the 2A are ‘reasonable’, but that is civilian, not industry.

Maybe I am out of the loop.
