rofl what a joke in a country with the second amendment that states congress shall not enact anylaw limiting our rights to own guns....we can even get air soft guns....what a joke...if their was ever a time for armed rebellion the time is now.....how can the govt destroy 2 businesses....no wonder we are such a crap country....
anytime law enforcement or the govt infringes on our rights we have the right and duty to resist even if that means killing them....they have no right to tell us what firearms we can and cant have, and if and when they do...they are gonna get killed...i dont care how many cops come to infringe on my rights. Historically only the slave class was not allowed to own weapons of any kind....this is what they are trying to do with the american people...the sad thing is americans are so stupid that they dont even see it coming.
Easy there, there's more rules and regulations to this here country than the few printed on the bill of rights. As others said, the weapons could of contained too much of a hazardous material form their manufacturing process, could of been manufactured without the permission and consent of the patent holders of the product in this country, or could of been shipped into this country intentionally or unintentionally mislabeled to try and skirt around customs and import regulations. All of which are just causes (either by the rights of some or the will "of the people" as a whole) to get the firearms immediately confiscated by customs. Just like we have the rights to own and bear arms in this country, we've also made it a right for local manufacturers and inventors to not be put out of business by cheap and/or unsafe ripoff imports.
Speaking of historicaly, I might be mistaken, but I believe there have been stern regulations in place to curb foreign firearm imports ever since large manufacturers (ie: Winchester, Smith and Weston, etc.) lobbyed for it back in their glory days of the late 1800s.
