Don't overlook that constitutional means aren't much help when the jack-booted thugs with swat gear and automatic weapons show up at o' dark thirty. That was the premise in Unintended Consequences. Henry Bowman didn't start the action, he was illegally targeted.

Re: Review: Unintended Consequences

Reading the book again in the 2012 era when the book is set in the early 90's also shows us the ways our gun culture has made progress in the last two decades. For example, shall issue CHL's and the more commonly accepted notion of self defense with the Castle Doctrine.

When I read it, I was also kicking myself for not picking up a lot of the cool NFA weapons in the pre-1968 era and the pre-Hughes Amendment fiasco.

I remember when you could buy guns inexpensively via mail order. . .
