Not at all reasonable. The gun grabbers want to do everything they can to discourage you and make it as difficult as possible to legally purchase weapons. San Francisco no longer has a single solitary gun dealer in their city/county. They passed so many pieces of legislation that were virtually impossible to comply with and involved so much red-tape that they hobbled the last remaining gun dealer who moved out of the city a few years ago.

Many guns are stolen and sold on the black market. So it is virtually impossible to keep track of them. There are also historical and antique guns that are unregistered. My father was a retired police officer. His gun cabinet was stolen about 40 years ago with several guns in it. Handguns and rifles. He had a commemorative issue LAPD pistol with pearl handle worth about $3000 that was in there and was to become mine. I was a little more than upset about that one. My gun cabinet is built-in and bolted to the floor so it is almost impossible for someone to walk off with it. It also offers fire protection up to 3000 degrees F. for at least 30 minutes. No one is going to take mine. But the government has tried many times. During Hurricane Katrina in NewOrleans (2007)? Residents of one community set up a blockade on the bridge leading into their community to prevent l**ters. The Police illegally confiscated their guns. What can you do in such a situation? Protest and get them back later. Unfortunately, law enforcement has a lot of yahoos who think they can also do as they please, and they do not know the laws. The courts reamed them afterward for such f**grant abuse of their power. That is of little consolation after it happens. By the same token, who in their right mind is going to get into a gun battle with the police over something like this? However, if someone came to my home, that would be a different story. Have you ever heard of the ATF v Weaver (Ruby Ridge) many years ago where they raided his cabin and his family was trying to protect their home? If I recall correctly his family was k**led as was an ATF agent. The authorities did not properly identify themselves. I don't remember the details very well because it has been many years since this happened.
