I'll be emphasising that as well as there not being a clear path for unregistered guns to get on the list easily so they exclude a whole sector by keeping them in the grey

Also I would point out that they are skating on thin ice already in terms of keeping us inside the tent - as best I have found out the estimate is that the confiscation got 15 to 20 percent of the semiautos out there so with their clampdown on us legal FAL owners then they are are creating a black market
Whatever one's views may be on that they are probably political so i will ask you to keep them to yourselves but still note that if they say that they want better gun legislation then creating a black market is not doing what it says on the tin

I would invite them to make FAL usage easier for qualified people and also reinforce the promise laid down back in the Thorp report that Licensing should be taken away from the Police

Which I think the buy back and the registration has and is adding too
