Obama is not going to take away your guns, no matter what Field and Stream says.
"Barack Obama believes the Second Amendment creates an individual right, and he respects the constitutional rights of Americans to bear arms. He will protect the rights of hunters and other law-abiding Americans to purchase, own, transport, and use guns." - factcheck.org
Talk is cheap.
His voting record marks him as a prohibitionist.
Expect gun-grabber judge appointments and gun-grabber executive orders , including import restrictions , if Mr. Obama is elected.
ATFE will do another turn-around , back to harrassment like during the Clinton reign.
But , the smoke and mirrors show just how radioactive the gun prohibition issue has become. Hence the steath approach. Gun Ban Barack Obama
Though I believe Obama will ban assault rifles, bayonet lugs, and high-cap mags, I agree with you that gun confiscation in the US would prove impossible.
I'd bet 1 in 5 would go down with a fight, so they'd have to approach every single gun owning house n America with a SWAT team. That would cost a little more than anyone can afford right now.
They would not wast their time with the SWAT team. martial law would be declared and they would use the military.
Obama is a lyre, He is a far life Dem. Commy. That cant win without cheating and voter fraud. Don't believe anything it says.
IIRC, the original context on barackobama.com said CCW was to be OK for ex-military AND retired police officers.
WTH happened to the ex-military part??????

Obama consistently votes AGAINST our gun rights. Please see www.GunBanObama.com for more information. This was a full page ad taken out by NRA in my Field & Stream and I wanted to spread the word a little farther than Field & Stream is reaching. I know that not every gun owner has a subscription to Field & Stream.
We can take it out of your dead hands, if you prefer.
Hear what one of the richest men in the world have to say about how he pays 17% in taxes while his cleaning lady and secretary have to pay 30% in taxes. Can someone please riddle me why that is okay?
Nothing is stopping him from paying more taxes. He can write a check for more taxes if he wants! Anyone can. He pays 17% because he employs tax lawyers and shelters his money overseas. Even if the rich man tax happened, they still would not pay. Duh.
ex-military AND retired police officers.

there has been a decision out of the department of defense that PTSD for the troops coming home from Iraqconstitutes a mental illness now and that is a disqualifier from purchasing or possessing a firearm................That is being fought in the house and senate as far as I now know//////////////
Some would go door to door to collect them if they could get away with it.

As it has already been pointed out, they would have to send a SWAT team to every gun-owning home in America.
And I am betting ( especially down here in my neck of the woods and other Southern states) that the people would make those SWAT teams very leery of knocking on our doors.
Also, many guns arent registered simply because they have been passed down from family to family. But those same guns are often kept in good working condition.
People get very, very creative when defending their homes.

Do you have tanks? Mortars? Good luck.
