Got a unusual question here. If martial law is declared in your county or wherever you live due to civil unrest, natural disaster, etc. ... Do you still have to abide by federal firearms laws or can you say '****-it' and use/protect yourself with the krazy things the gov't tells you not to do.

sawed-off shotguns
silenced weapons
convert weapons to fully-automatic -

I mean if it is martial law, then it is a war-zone, right? Anything goes?

The answer is, there will be far too many people to actually control and the government will be busy with the nut jobs.

Or, of course, they might just arrest everyone in mass amounts and to hell with you.

That's why I've got emergency supplies at my house 'cause I ain't leavin'

Scary is right, Ed. You must know a lot of folks in the military too.

rogerxd45 · 08-17-2007, 11:10 PM

it seems like there are more laws with sevier punishments so i would say
no
however the abilty to get away with it would be far greater
