Oh sweet baby jesus <| sep |> I ' m sure there is something they could do that doesn ' t infringe too much on our constitutional rights . I ' ve never had to buy a gun before , I ' ve had all mine gifted to me and I ' m not a CCW permit holder so I ' m not sure what the process is exactly . The problem us gun owners have with regulations is that most of the time the people proposing them are very anti gun ie Clinton and their supporters are not gun owners therefore they know little about gun safety and gun laws . Also we ' ve seen California has abused its gun registry and we aren ' t willing to be put on a list to exercise our constitutional rights which could potentially and probably will be abused . Gun owners by and large , except for most open carriers probably , are willing to accept some regulations that make sense , but banning assault weapons and extended magazines aren ' t going to help anything that much . And the fact that these things are proposed so often shows that the left doesn ' t actually want to address the issue in a way which preserves our rights but instead is willing to take away our rights because of their preconceived notions that guns are inherintely bad .
