Nope, that's not at all what they're clamoring for now. I'm all in favor of extremely thorough background checks, always have been, as are most law-abiding gun owners. But Biden has announced a number of draconian measures he'd like to take, among them: Reinstating the failed 1994 Assault Weapons Ban, which would criminalize half the rifles in my safe and the hundreds of standard-capacity magazines in storage; mandating that all guns manufactured be "smart guns," which I have no idea what that means but supposedly having some sort of fingerprint technology built-in to every firearm grip; limiting the number of firearms and ammunition a person can legally purchase; and worst of all, he's promising to appoint Beto O'Rourke as his "gun czar," and Beto is an open advocate for forcible gun confiscations and raids on the homes of law-abiding citizens. As he put it, "HELL YEAH, WE'RE COMING FOR YOUR AR-15." Or "AR-14," as Joe puts it (there is no such thing as an AR-14).
But, like I said, history has shown that every such measure inevitably fails in America. Bill Clinton famously warns every Democratic presidential candidate against trying to do what he did in 1994, which ended in the Democrats getting destroyed in the congressional mid-terms and in the end the AWB was a massive failure and the Democrat-controlled Congress in 2004 didn't even bother trying to reinstate it.
But I hate history lessons. Back to handjobs and mask mandates on planes.
I went there a few years ago when I started getting into vintage lenses to add to my filmmaking kit. Last couple of trips I didn’t have much free time to hit Nakano and the only used shop I got to check out was Alps near the entrance to Kabukicho.
