You would only get through a few of them before sweeping gun reform laws were past

sweeping gun reform laws

Except it was a printed gun. Might need sweeping printer reform laws too.

That’s a chance we’ll have to take.

Prohibition has worked really well in the US before.

It would take a lot longer than two months for people run out of not-yet-confiscated firearms or ammo, though (decades, probably), so effectively it doesn’t matter that much if they suddenly ban them, and I’d be thrilled with that outcome.

I mean what difference does it make if you murder someone or murder them with a banned weapon? The result of getting caught is being totally fucked either way.
