Bill introduced to implement backdoor gun registration in Hawaii

Senate Bill 2170 has passed to the House and is awaiting hearing in two committees. SB 2170 would PROHIBIT the sale of ammunition unless the purchaser can prove the firearm for which the ammunition is being purchased is registered. This will require retroactive registration of all long-guns in Hawaii and necessitate the creation of a new bureaucracy to track ammunition sales.

This one came from the NRA-ILA; thanks. You can use their site to contact your representatives about this bill.

From the description here, I assume that Hawaii already has handgun registration, and this bill requires that purchasers of ammunition prove that the gun is registered, thus requiring long guns to be registered if you want to shoot them. Underhanded, sneaky, and pointless.
