ive given this a lot of thought as it has become clear that Biden was going to be president. First, there is good evidence we have more new gun owners than we did prior to covid. I have to believe they purchased them because they saw the need and hopefully still do enough to pressure their reps not to sign on to any new gun laws. Second, there are moderate democrat gun owners that have moderate democrat representatives to buck any new legislation. no legislation was passed after sandy hook and if there was an event you imagine could have got something done that was it but nothing. so who is going to advocate for their reps to go along with new restrictions in a vacuum? the only people that used guns on wednesday were the cops and one of them shot an unarmed woman. good luck getting something passed.
third, assuming the worst, gun confiscation by executive order, state legislatures and governors could tell the feds to pound sand and would eventually sue them, off to the scotus we go. a scotus President Trump has altered for a generation to a more conservative side. lastly, i have to believe local law enforcement and sherrifs/deputies would disobey such obvious unconstitutional orders and the ones that dont, well i wont cry over breaking some eggs to make an omelet . there are just way more of us than there are of them and the fed combined it would be disastrous and it would all have to fail and then you could see civil war with arms instead of this cold war of information we seem to be in currently.
TL;DR there are lots of "breakers" between the feds and them attempting a full scale gun confiscation/civil war. So lets just be vigilant we have been here before so dont freak out....yet
