Now when I think of it, this could take a very interesting and unintended turn.

Many of the companies that make parts must also be capable of making guns. I could probably do that even with the modest equipment I have in my shop. If these companies are forced to have a manufacturing license, there's nothing stopping them from making the whole gun, instead of just making parts. So now all of a sudden, Obama may be facing the fact that he not only forced a lot of small gunsmiths out of business, but he also encouraged the larger gun part companies to start producing complete firearms.

I can't see how this decision would help his agenda, and (as usual) it's not very well thought out either. For example: There's not such a great demand for threaded barrels that it can't be covered by the companies that opt to get their manufacturing license, so all he's doing is to shift the production from one company to another. The end result will be mass confusion and unemployment, plus more business for those who have a manufacturing license.

It all makes me wonder what this executive order was supposed to fix in the first place. Is it the war on terror again, or is it just the usual war on the citizens?

Obama was probably only interested in building his popularity with the ignorant leftists and moron Congressmen who staged the "sit-in" in the capitol a week or so ago. Political posturing just as we've watched for seven and a half years.
