I received an e-mail about this this afternoon:

Very Important for you to be aware of a new bill HR 45 introduced into the House. This is the Blair Holt Firearm Licensing & > Record of Sale Act of 2009.

Even gun shop owners didn't know about this because the government is trying to fly it under the radar. To find out about this - go to any government website and type in HR 45 or Google HR 45 Blair Holt Firearm Licensing & Record of Sales Act of 2009. You will get all the information.

Basically this would make it illegal to own a firearm - any rifle with a clip or ANY pistol unless:
1. It is registered,

2. You are fingerprinted,

3. You supply a current Driver's License,

4. You supply your Social Security #,

5. You will submit to a physical & mental evaluation at any time of their choosing,

6. Each update change or ownership through private or public sale must be reported and costs $25,

7. Failure to do so you automatically lose the right to own a firearm and are subject up to a year in jail.

There is a child provision clause on page 16 section 305 stating a child-access provision. Gun must be locked an d inaccessible to any child under 18.

They would have the right to come and inspect that you are storing your gun safely away from accessibility to children and fine is punishable for up to 5 yrs. in prison.

If you think this is a joke - go to the website and take your pick of many options to read this. It is long and lengthy. But, more and more people are becoming aware of this. Pass the word along. Any hunters in your family pass this along.

b]2009-2010 Blair Holt's Firearm Licensing and Record of Sale Act of 2009[/b]

To provide for the implementation of a system of licensing for purchasers of certain firearms and for a record of sale system for those firearms, and for other purposes.

"They" have been trying to get it through apparently a couple of times, but I found out later last night the bill is apparently trapped in committee right now. Hope is stays there and dies, but I suppose they will keep trotting it out year after years, trying to pass it to restrict our gun rights.
