back alley, kind of like the Brussels train station loophole. While SIG Sauer has an American factory, isn't still a German or Swiss company?

Supporting UBCs is a mistake without real compromise. See below.

They have founded Americans for Responsible Solutions. Their goal is to expand background checks to gun shows and print and online gun purchases.

The group also supports a ban on assault weapons, high-capacity bullet magazines and reining in gun trafficking.
