    Which would work in the most fantastic manner ever. I can just see the criminals with unregistered firearms lining up to turn their weapons into the Fed too.

    Not trying to change subject.

    Anyways, also know that the AR platform is endless when it comes to modification. Whether it be mechanical or aesthetic, the sky is the limit.

    I think you'd be surprised. The cops said a huge percentage of those guns in LA were unregistered - it was an amnesty, "no questions asked" event. Keep in mind a lot of those unregistered firearms started out as legal gun sales but were traded/lost/stolen along the way. Cut off the supply of new weapons, buy back existing weapons, and you at least lower the number of available mass shooting devices out there.

    There is obviously no perfect solution to the problem so it will be interesting what pieces and parts being thrown out by gun control advocates and gun rights groups will be welded into a policy.
