Since the $200 registration tax on NFA weapons was the equivalent of $3800 today, it was very close to a ban. Imagine a $3800 tax on a handgun, alo ng with a yearlong wait for registration today. I'd call it a 99% ban. Now time for a $1,000,000 tax on each 'blog site' (the modern printing press)...just a simple exercise of power to regulate interstate commerce....03Lightningrocks wrote: ↑Tue Sep 17, 2019 12:19 pmThey were not actually banned at that time. They were required to be registered. That was the first step toward banning them.thatguyoverthere wrote: ↑Tue Sep 17, 2019 9:40 am Here's a thought that just hit me. I'm no historian, so an honest question here. And I know it's not an apples-to-apples comparison, but the answer might be of some interest in relation to the current situation: how did it go when fully auto machine guns and short barrel rifles and shotguns were effectively banned with the GCA of 1934?
