He is throwing his sheeple a bone, pesky Congress he will show them who's boss. It's this BS that drove me to do some shopping that I otherwise would not have done and am glad I did.

I had one of the Blue Sky Imports M1s from Korea. Gun was good enough, but barrel was like a sewer pipe, and its crown showed a lot of uncontrolled cleaning rod action. Replaced barrel, all was OK. Original barrel is tied to my cot for use as a stretcher lever to set up the cot. It's fate could have been worse, I use other bad surplus rifle barrels for ground rods for electric fences.

This action of today is an out-of-the-blue event. There has been some news for about a year about the State Department holding up a shipment of M1s from Korea and back-and-forth comments about that deal. But to come up with and announce an almost-total ban on import of previously lended US guns, is a bigger thing.

Zero has to appear to be a strong leader to some audience. Too bad for all, that this audience is such a small one. I'll take "petty distractions" for $20, Alex.

I get the sense that concern is low on their list. They are doing stuff because they are being allowed to get away with it.

Maybe he'll take a walk in the rose garden....and change his mind.
