You never sold guns. I have. I have watched gun sales with interest - for decades. I have also profited well from seeing the trends and buying and selling accordingly.
Here IS what your plan would do. I make these educated guesses with a rather large degree of certainty.
Your plan would take months - possibly even years to implement. In the time between now and then - gun sales would SOAR. This time it would not just be AK-47 s and AR15s. It would be every kind of gun imaginable - at high prices. The panic buying would be incredible.
The manufacturers - seeing what is coming would prepare for the event by cranking out as many guns as they could. No vacations at Smith and Wesson. It would look like preparations for a world war.
And guess what? They would still supply guns for YEARS after the ban went into effect - as they would manufacture as many lower receivers as possible before the ban went into effect. See - the lower receiver - the part with the serial number is considered " the gun" and all the rest is just parts. Don' t argue this - it happened during the Clinton ban... They were " ban compliant guns"....
Your plan would flood the market - with high priced guns....
.
good go.....
You conveniently ignored the part where gun makers would be paid to NOT make guns - guaranteed profits for doing nothing. Just imagine - you could shutter your factory and STILL make the same profit, and that profit would increase every year.
I think much of your scenario could be avoided with, ‘Stop making guns today and we’ll give you a billion dollars tomorrow.’

Or you could just click your heels together 3 times and say " there' s no place like home".......
It would be nice - but the real world doesn' t work like that. Legislation takes time.
