Quote:* End of the Clinton AWB in 2004 (10 year term, an example of where a gun control measure has been repealed or extinguished)The 1994 AWB was not repealed. It expired. If it had not had a set term, it would almost certainly still be in effect.
Quote:* Heller Supreme Court Decision, affirming the individual's right to keep and bear arms.Minor victory. It reaffirmed the ruling that there is no right to carry concealed.
The other changes you cited are noteworthy achievements, though.
