[QUOTE="mightymouse, post: 3079061, member: 15253"] Dave--or someone else--may correct me if my interpretation is wrong here, but it is my understanding that while the Second Amendment does indeed confirm a pre-existing right to bear arms, the Federal government retains the ability to regulate the[I] trade[/I] in firearms, much as the FCC does in communications despite existence of the First Amendment. The basis of an individual right like the Second Amendment, and the manner in which the Federal government regulates the trade in firearms are two different arguments in my view. [/QUOTE]
