You didn't answer the question. How would you do it? How would you physically take possession of an estimated 250 million guns in the hands of upwards of 80 million people. Ask politely? As I said there is no force on this earth that could accomplish this. There is no politician, including third term Obama,
who would be dumb enough to suggest it. No police or military leader would be dumb enough to attempt it either. The logistics are impossible. Maybe you know something no one else knows. Again, how would you do it?

I could see an unlikely but possible scenario of economic collapse(which will happened if we dont change course, could be 10, 20 years) leading to widespread unrest and with the wrong politican like BHO or worse in office, perhaps lucky enough to have a majority and shoving some wild anti gun legislation down our throats

In a country that is in an economic collapse, explain exactly what 'some wild anti gun legislation' would or could accomplish. It would make no sense and be even harder to do. There would be other pressing problems other than turning a large portion of the population, armed at that, against the government. Again, not a chance.

Then suddenly, any citizen caught with a firearm after so and so date is a felon.All depends on timing and how tyrannical said leader is willing to be. Don't say things like this won't happen, they have, Lincoln and civil war are prime example.

Your view of American history is as slanted as your view of current events.
