Reader Jim W. mentioned a new 12 gauge shotgun, from Turkey. Unfortunately, because they made it look so much like an AR, and hence cosmetically “non-sporting,” I suspect that it will be reclassified as a “Destructive Device”, and slapped with a $200 transfer tax. After all, they have the precedent of the Korean Daewoo USAS-12. That was done retroactively, because some uneducated bureaucrats don’t understand Latin phrases like “ex post facto.” (See: Clause 3 of Article I, Section 9 of the U.S. Constitution.) And, given the arbitrary and capricious nature of bureaucrats, don’t be surprised if they also implement an import ban, for good measure. Nor should we be surprised if they do the same for Saiga shotguns. Most likely these decrees will come after President Bolt Hold Open (BHO) gets re-elected. Take note that he recently mentioned that he’ll have “more flexibility” after what he sees as his fait accompli re-election. I predict that the gloves will come off, and many new executive orders will be issued.

Be careful! You might put your eye out. (Note the face shield. It is always wise to use eye and ear protection when shooting.)
