Zack Space sponsors needed gun legislation

A bill being co-sponsored by our congressman, Zack Space, will, according to NRA, "make it easier for lawful gun owners and dealers to comply with federal law and regulations, while ensuring those who break the law are punished accordingly."

It also "serves as a vital step toward modernizing and improving BATFE’s overall operations," said the NRA.

I once spent countless man-hours retrieving from BATFE a family heirloom gun that had been stolen from me, even long after the case had been resolved in court. Bureaucrats working there seemed obstinate and out of anybody's control. Long story that involved years'-long effort, a thick file of correspondence, and finally the return of my by-then rust-spotted gun.

The new bill is H.R. 4900 - "Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives Reform and Firearms Modernization Act of 2007.” The NRA put out a news release on it today at this link.
