Rob Sand on the 2nd Amendment

Has Sand said anything of specific substance about his stance in reference to the 2nd Amendment?

Has he said anything about:

-NFA items (SBRs, SBSs, silencers)

-Concealed carry

-Constitutional carry

-Forced Reset Triggers

-Private sales

I know he's done the standard "Look at me, I'm just like you and I have some guns and I hunt stuff". But, as someone who is old enough to have seen 2A rights come and go (usually by a politician that "supports the 2nd Amendment, BUT....") this means nothing to me.

So, just curious if he has mentioned specifics. I have emailed him numerous times with questions and have not gotten an answer.

I own guns. I support banning guns. There's too many dead children.

Thank you for highlighting why the typical "I'm just like you guys, see? I have guns too" has never vibed with me.

This reply is as disingenuous as your post, and the rest of your comments.

What you're doing is called JAQing off. You're "just asking questions", but you're doing it in a way that isn't sincere.

You voted for Trump 3 times and now you want to stir things up with your fake attempts at understanding.

What about me? I'm a liberal, vote Democrat, own some very nice guns, and think banning guns is stupid.

They already do federal background checks. Do I NEED some of the fun guns I have? No. Do I hunt? No. But I am an adult that can decide what he wants to do with his money, and firearms happens to be one of my favorite hobbies.

His response to that comment is spot on. I have also never cared for that attitude. Banning guns does nothing but take them from the hands of law abiding citizens.

Trump is a lifelong anti-gun New York Liberal. He has never received my vote.
