Another example of Democrat idiocy. The transfer of these old M1911A1s to the CMP was actually established two or three years ago, under Obama, but it somehow just didn't happen. This new act basically requires it to take place. As it should. The Democrats, of course, weep and wail and rend garments over releasing all these weapons of war onto the streets. Aside from the fact that an M1911A1 only holds 8 rounds, compared to however many thousand rounds a Glock holds, these things are collector guns and they'll be sold at collector prices, all through legitimate channels. The average street thug or Islamist terrorist isn't going to spend $1,000 and up for an antique firearm with a limited capacity when he can buy a Glock on any street corner for a couple of hundred dollars -- off paper.
