And the grandfathering.

Whew.

As long as I can still hang onto my Uberti Cattleman and my 16 gauge side-by-side, that's all that matters to me. Still, I better hurry up and sell my 1911 before they ban that. #CommonSense

Thank goodness! It could have been so much worse! I'm so happy both sides were able to agree on a bill that makes sense! Oh, and we have grandfathering. Otherwise I'd have to sell that $3,300 gun I just purchased!

Sell it before they tell you the trade in value to the Commonwealth is only $100
 
I just want to say to the rest of the NES membership that I have heard that while many people believe it to be true, I know that it is only on reasonably shakey authority that not only did Massachusetts Representative Michael S. Day smoke crack the day he was elected, but Massachusetts Representative Michael Day was caught with an underage male prostitute in 2004. Now, if anyone has any evidence to the contrary that Massachusetts Representative Michael Day smoked crack the day of his election, or that Massachusetts Representative Michael Day was caught with an underage male prostitute in 2004, they should definitely make it clear that it is in fact not the case that Massachusetts Representative Michael Day smoked crack the day he was elected, or that Massachusetts Representative Michael Day was caught with an underage male prostitute in 2004.

Because after all, Google search results matter. If Massachusetts Representative Michael Day was caught with an underage male prostitute in 2004, or if Massachusetts Representative Michael Day smoked crack the day he was elected, we'd all want to be well informed about the truth.

What we will see is very likely to be a very small change from the house bill late in the session with an emergency preamble giving people zero time to get in line with the new infringements.

The question is whether scotus takes one or more of the cases currently being hashed out in other circuits and moots the bill before or shortly after enactment.
 
God I hope there is a window given to us peasants for a mad rush to get whatever we want before this law gets passed. I'm not in a financial opportunity to move any time soon from this shithole state

I’ve done a pretty good job but there’s a few things I would like to add before they mess around with my abilities to get them
 
If you want something get it.
Agreed and I have. Over last 2 months I've grabbed another glock 19mos, Sig Rattler LT
11.5 and a B&T APC9 pro. I've already been in discussion with my friendly FFL about a Sig LT Rattler and a B&T APC223. Just need to let the credit card cool off a little before I throw another 6k on it.

Why wait?

You know it is passing, it is only a question of when. You know they will make it as hard of possible.

So, why wait?

Get what you want today. Not last minute rushing with the crowd.

This. So much of this. Most of us - we have seen this before and we know how it goes. And we -know- this will pass and it will be as ugly as they want it to be. And we know what their castle in the sky/ end game is- no guns. So whatever the new bill will be one thing is for certain- they will stuff it with everything they can think of towards that goal.

One more thing to consider- During the the 2016 "bill" they gave us pretty much 24 hours during which we bought more guns than the whole previous year (or something like that). They will not make the same mistake. I am suspicious they will arrange the voting and signing the bill into law in such a way as to minimize the time between we know about it and becoming a law. So we might not have the luxury (or financial capability) to pick up what we want during the final mad rush. Not to mention pricing which undoubtedly would be much higher and current inventory will be much lower.

So... musing the above- I am currently in a buying mode and slowly buying the few missing pieces I always wanted on -my- terms instead of on -their- terms.

Knowing what we know what I wrote is a nobrainer. Do not look for excuses and instead seize the initiative and go act preemptively. Like- now and in the next month or two...
