Anyone think this'll happen

Potential Executive Order banning private gun sales. If you are looking for a gun purchase, better get it done quickly.

To him I say..... GLWS. Though I'm sure some members here (BOS requiring FFL wannabes) will be 100% fine with this.
Notice how he states only 12% bought form stores implying 88% bought from private individuals. Yep, they definitely weren't stolen. What a putz...

• Require criminal background checks for all gun sales:
Right now, federally licensedfirearms dealers are required to run background checks on those buying guns, but studies
estimate that nearly 40 percent of all gun sales are made by private sellers who are exempt
from this requirement. A national survey of inmates found that only 12 percent of those who
used a gun in a crime acquired it from a retail store or pawn shop, where a background check
should have been run. Congress should pass legislation that goes beyond just closing the “gun
show loophole” to require background checks for all firearm sales, with limited, common-sense
exceptions for cases like certain transfers between family members and temporary transfers for
hunting and sporting purposes.
• Call on licensed dealers and private sellers to do their part through executive
action:
Private sellers can already choose to sell their guns through licensed dealers so the dealer can
run a background check on the buyer, and the Administration is calling on them to do so. The
Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) will send an open letter to licensed
dealers giving them guidance on how best to facilitate these checks.

Are they going to ask for this one now? I thought the current narrative cops are bad? They are so hard to keep up with what they want, always changing their minds

• Help communities across the country keep 15,000 cops on the street:

So does this mean that folks are doing a drive by with a Mosin?

• Eliminate restrictions that force the ATF to authorize importation of dangerous
  weapons simply because of their age:
  ATF is required to authorize the importation of
  certain “curio or relic” firearms, and outdated regulations include all firearms manufactured more
  than 50 years ago in the definition of “curio or relic.” But today, firearms manufactured more than
  50 years ago include large numbers of semiautomatic military-surplus rifles, some of which are
  easily convertible into machine guns or otherwise appealing for use in crime. Congress should
  get rid of restrictions that prevent ATF from changing this definition, enabling ATF to ensure
  that firearms imported as curios or relics are actually of interest as collectibles, rather than letting
  these rules be used as a way to acquire fully functional and powerful military weapons
