Let's say a million. Where will they get the men? Per treaty they use Military from other countries for peace keeping duties, do you think other nations will gut their military for such a purpose ? Lets say they get their million, how long do you think it will take those men to cover every house in the US? Our major metropolitan cities have as many as 13 million people in them then we have farmers and ranchers living well out of town sometimes in places that could easily be missed.

Who's going to feed these million men, where do they get their transportation, who cleans their uniforms, medical care, gas, tires, vehicle maintenance, transportation of millions of tons of confiscated weapons ( to where?), how do they destroy them, how many will it take just to do the research to find who has guns, etc?

When I was in the 2nd Armored Division at Ft. Hood, TX we took the entire division (approximately 25,000 soldiers and their vehicles) to the field for a month long exercise, at the end of the month when I brought my Company back to the Garrison they were still trying to get all the Division's supplies to the field. Working night and day for 30 days we had only moved 1/3 of the Division's supplies to the field (approximately 6 miles), how the Hell could you do it with one million over 2 thousand miles?

For those of you that will say that we would use our own military, National Guard, police, etc. you must remember that those people are the major owners of home weapons and will most probably not gives up their weapons much less look for ours!

How many peace keepers will they lose when they encounter street gangs, motorcycle gangs (Hells Angels, etc.) and civilians that fight for their guns (me and Jim Wahl). When that happens how long would it be before that country would pull it's troops out to avoid any more deaths?

Nope, my guns are safe simply because of the logistics of such an undertaking and because no Senator is stupid enough to go against the armed citizens of this country.

PS can you imagine being a foreign soldier going into Dallas/Ft. Worth and trying to get citizens guns?
Jim you are missing the point. No un soldier or cop is going to kick your door in. This thing is very subtle. It will start with all guns of any kind being registered. Some states have that already. Then you will have to prove how and when you use them individually. They will make you turn in the excess (you won't need 20 guns to hunt for a deer etc.) Then little by little they will ban certain types of guns.(you don't need a Judge pistol to shoot targets.) Then there won't be that many legal guns, first they will tax the hell out of them then they will take the rest away. They will do this under the guise of complying with the un.
Anyone on here the fishes in saltwater will know about regulation creep. They start off with a bag and size limit everyone can live with. Then they reduce the numbers till you can't keep any.
