#1 This is bizzy work. Nothing will come of it because half of the GA would violate it for a buck. But it will be a nifty excuse for lots of meetings, lunches, travel, stays in 5-star hotels, and maybe even a pot of money to skim.

#2 The reality is this is a renewed attempt against the universal human right of persons to be armed for personal protection. It has zero to do with the claimed objectives.

#3 This is about as worthy of comment as it is substantive.

#4 I hope the UN remembers to send a copy of that treaty to China. I don't know if they have noticed, but every terrorist, insurgent, criminal, murderer in that part of the world has an AK-47 in their hand. And nobody makes em cheaper than china. I seriously doubt that they are the Bulgarian AK's with the milled recievers and chrome lined barrels that we get over here. Prolly more like the stamped reciever with the crappy mild steel barrel that has been made in china, literally by the millions, for every low-life murderer from chechnya to peru.

#5 Right - the intended target of this thing is a guy like me here in Amerikka who wants a new Weatherby hunting rifle, not the maoist guerillas in Nepal. Screw 'em...

#6 No, No, No, the intent here is shakedown.

Siep one, Identify the dealers.
Step two, "License" them.
Step three, Declare "Problem solved, no more Illegal Gun Dealers.
Step four, reap the cash, ignore calls for "Reform"
Step five, "Reform" (Translation fees go up)

Repeat as long as you can get away with it. (20 Years minimum.)
