THE DAILY FUDD: E121: "KEEP IT SIMPLE: A response on YouTube laying out dealing with changing gun laws and ATFn'E regs."

FROM THE MESSAGE I WAS REPLYING TO: "I don't claim to have a good solution for that, but from living in California for years I also know that the path of compliance doesn't work well, they'll keep advancing their infringements till compliance is impossible."

My own approach is securing essential firepower over preserving preference. (All links below go to my own world-renounCed blog--I've been writing about this stuff for years.) 1. Stick to featureless rifle. An official "Militia Rifle": Necessarily it would be rather PC, but held en masse by the population, it would serve the Militia function of untrained civilians. https://catsgunsandnationalsecurity.blogspot.com/2021/02/the-daily-fudd-e19-my-original-fudd.html

2. Simple carry piece. A legitimate CCW carry piece: Ideally 9mm automatics would fit in there, but revolvers would be better than nothing. https://catsgunsandnationalsecurity.blogspot.com/2021/03/the-daily-fudd-e27-revolver-as-iconic.html

Plus, don't forget the iconic element of the .45: https://catsgunsandnationalsecurity.blogspot.com/2021/03/the-daily-fudd-e55-45-iconicism-from.html 3. Decent mainstream home-defense gun, even if manual-action. A "modern blunderbuss": The 1688/89 English Bill of Rights provision for private arms was held to basically guarantee a peasant a blunderbuss to ward off burglars. The PCC and the home-defense shotgun are the modern descendants of that. Of course, I want to max out firepower, but courts and politics might be more considerate of a shotgun. https://catsgunsandnationalsecurity.blogspot.com/2021/03/the-daily-fudd-e43-few-hours-late-more.html (also discussed things like the Henry Axe).

THIS would be a baseline that would satisfy civilian firepower functions: https://catsgunsandnationalsecurity.blogspot.com/2021/04/the-daily-fudd-e78-baseline-region.html THIS, though, is a fun minimalist combo that would be iconic and functional: https://catsgunsandnationalsecurity.blogspot.com/2021/03/the-daily-fudd-e28-fudd-set-that-should.html No, it's not the full intent of 2A. But history also points to RKBA not being all that some make it out to be (please read with open mind): https://catsgunsandnationalsecurity.blogspot.com/2021/02/the-daily-fudd-e-originalist-fudd-ish.html Thank you for the opportunity to lay out some ideas. 2A is about firepower and function, not mere preference and indulgence. Keep it simple.
