Nearly A Million Rifles Banned By Barack Obama And His Anti-Gun Cronies
Did you know that Barack Obama has banned nearly a million American-made rifles?
Colorado ––(Ammoland.com)- In an executive order the Obama Administration has secretly blocked the re-importation of American made M-1 Garand and Carbine rifles being stored in South Korea.
These rifles were used by the US military during the Korean War and left there after the war was over.
With one stroke of his pen, he by-passed the legislative process and banned nearly a million American made rifles by executive fiat.
That’s why I instructed my staff to prepared a petition and video against Obama’s Historic Rifle Ban.
Watch the video and then sign the petition to President Obama and congressional leaders Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid stating your opposition to the Historic Rifle Ban.
Make no mistake, these rifles were made in America, by Americans and used by American soldiers to defend freedom on foreign shores and are greatly sought after by American shooters and collectors.
Now State Department officials claim these antique, collector rifles could be used to commit crimes.
While the radical anti-gun crowd is giddy with praise for Obama’s latest back-door gun ban, law-abiding citizens across the United States are crying foul.
These outrageous claims are a thinly veiled attempt to distract from Obama’s special interest payback to the radical anti-gun crowd. This desperate pandering must not be allowed to continue.
It has been common practice since the end of World War II to re-import these American-made rifles from the foreign allies they were lent to after the war.
During the Reagan Administration a similar import request for 200,000 Garand rifles was approved.
State Department officials say they are working with South Korea to “dispose” of these American made rifles.
You and I both know that is bureaucratic code for the melting down and destruction of these iconic American made rifles.
On top of banning American citizens from owning these rifles, Obama’s State Department is arranging for the destruction of nearly one million historic, American rifles.
To help dispel some of the myths surrounding this iconic American rifle, Director of Operations Luke O’Dell interviewed M-1 Garand expert Rory Edwards in the Video below.
Let me be clear: at no time in U.S. history has the ownership of any part of this gun been restricted or banned.
These firearms — truly pieces of American history — rightly belong in the hands of U.S. citizens, and Obama has banned nearly one million of them without cause.
P.S. In a secret executive order, President Barack Obama has secretly blocked the re-import of nearly a million American made rifles.
That’s nearly a million historic rifles that Obama doesn’t want in the hands of American citizens like you and me.
Dear Obama , I understand where you are coming from . You should not banned automatic rifles or hand guns though. Instead you should put a higher tax on them . The tax money should then be used too upgrade school security in the United States . Also , what if the borders where over run by immigrants with fire arms . You would then probably be happy some law abiding citizens have guns . I am a legal american citizen with southern American heritage and I have heard of Americans becoming victims of crime along the mexican border due… Read more »

I see the tea baggers live on this site.
Right wing nuts.
Please go away.
Liberals will win again in 2012.
I got one Mr. Obama, notice I refuse to call him president, why don't you come and get it.
Bring them home and give them to the citzens of the boarder states so they can protect themselves since the government will not protect our boarders..
This rifles are a part of our history and should not be destroyed.
These rifles are a part of our history. They are still property of the Army and paid for by the tax payers of our country.The ban is ridiculous. The M1 is not a threat and you know it.
I feel that being a law abiding citizen and I used to carry that rifle most of my military carrier. I see no use in destroying all this military supplies. I think you should let all these excess military weapons be imported to the United States and allow the people of good standing purchase these weapons. You know one day we could be forced to fight on our own soil and it may well be that if we don't have some protection then we may be over run. I think a person should have a right to protect their own… Read more »
I guess Obama feels that it will not be that bad to let the gang bangers kill a few. And the bangers from Mexico that made it across the boarder to do the jobs that Americans won't do. This is OK. But ooooooooono. He needs to stop the really bad long guns that will kill people and be used in all the robberys. God bless America and all the people that stand up..
What executive order number was this? An executive order cannot be "secret", but a part of the public record. Reminds me a lot of an e-mail I received a few years ago about congress passing a secret law. If it's a law, an executive order, or anything else, it would need to be a part of the public record. Sorry, Dudley, but your information checker on this turned out to be a bit of a dud. You missed the major rules of journalism in this article. > WHO: You claim it was President Obama. (No, I voted for the other… Read more »
