I own 12 guns, both pistols and rifles. If the state of WI required me to register all of them I would. The guns I have purchased in the past 10 years are so are registered.
Whenever I hear people who are anti-registration because they are not criminals I always wonder if they realize that at one time all guns are sold legally. There isn't a special backdoor sale policy to buy illegally from the factory. Registering guns if nothing else provides a starting point if a gun is found or used illegally. Not saying that you did it, but it might assist in finding out who stole, your gun and how it got to be used in a crime. I really don't see a problem. Sure, the street thug with the 9mm in his pants didn't buy it legally but the guy from whose house he stole it might have and now we have the same person in 2 lists of possible suspects.
In terms of the second ammendment. It is interpreted by many to state that private citizens may own weapons. It does not say that you may own weapons without regulation. Many of the gun owners who whine about regulation seem to forget something... they still own and bear them.
Finally a question for the IL residents. I live just across the border in WI. What do I need to purchase ammo or guns and/or hunt in IL?
