With all due respect, I have a hard time believing that most gun owners would have the sand to stand up against a government imposed gun ban. There's a virtual gun ban in NYC and in WA DC. I don't recall any uprisings in either of those two jurisdictions.
A phony, demagogued "assault weapons ban" stood unopposed in anything other than a political way for what? 10 years? Something like that.
The point is, the time to "fight the power" is not after the power has been consolidated and centralized. Yet we stand idly by while those very things are happening year in and year out. We argue with each other over whether or not the NRA is worthy of our support. We argue amongst each other whether militias present a positive image for us "law-abiding" gun owners, when the plain truth is, the militias are the only ones trying to prepare in an organized way for exactly the scenario described in the first post in this thread. Yeah, they're fat, out of shape rednecks by and large, but I'd rather have a fat, out of shape redneck who's at least had some cursory training and believes deeply enough in the cause of freedom to participate in organizations that the government consistently tries to quash.
I'd love to believe that us law-abiding Americans have the cajones to band together to fight against a run-amok government, but sorry, I see no evidence of it on any significant scale at all. I think we'd be toast as a free people.

Guns? What guns?
I sold all my guns to an individual some time back.
Records?
I have no records of the sale, as none was required at the time I sold my guns.

Some of us have alot of money invested in our arms,for them to be taken is steeling our investment. I think many years of litagation would take place first.
To me, this thread borders on if not crosses the line regarding obeying the law. I also would be careful about what I put in print in public!
