Why would he release numbers and embarrass himself - quite sure It Is less than 20%+/-.
There's quite a few states that have had similar results - did they actually believe every single person who owns the "Outlaw Guns" would register them - Why !
The Guvnor and Pres. said that most of the ones out there have passed through many hands. Legal hands - legally purchased - bought and resold. Good Luck with finding all those rifles !
I would imagine if a target shooter bought one from his friend in 2011- who bought it from a friend in 2000 - who bought it from and so on - who's gonna come forward now and register it - its like buying a chance at being arrested - its stupid.
Once again they have created a stupid law that wont save life's - wont stop criminals and only affects law abiding Americans.
Does anyone actually believe a criminal is carrying around his "Assault Weapon" registration form.
Will every law abiding citizen have to carry his registration form every time he goes target shooting ? -
Maybe they can issue "Grandfathered weapons carry permits" - you know - charge a small fee for a carry permit so if your stopped on the way to or from target practice - or when a Law Enforcement guy just happens to stop by the range !
Remember Katrina - - - They declared a state of emergency and went out confiscating fire arms door to door ! So what level of Government can declare a "State of Emergency" -
