My reaction to most of them is somewhere between "Why hasn't that happened already?" and "Who cares?". The only one I see that could be controversial is 2. Depending on how "unnecessary legal barriers" is defined, what information they decide the states should be making available to the NICS, and where the bar will be set to deny someone a firearm there could be a lot of people who have an issue with it.

#5 could be a LONG time before a perfectly legal owner gets their firearm back.

It already is a long time, my buddy shot himself in 07, his wife wanted his gun back and they still haven't returned it.

Cheap as hell too if you can find it where someone that isn't gouging. Gun is about 200, stocks about 100, and mags are about 20. Put a cheap bushnell red dot for 50 and its fully kitted for what I want...

I highly recommend getting a few Ruger BX-25 Mags (whenever the crazy dies down). They are much better than all those cheap plastic ones.
