What many people overlook, is that reclassifying a firearm can greatly devalue a firearm, which is taking money out of the pockets of firearms owners. Once a firearm is reclassified to prohibited, it greatly reduces the number of potential buyers, so the demand falls, and the value falls with it. The owners paid their hard earned money to purchase their firearms, and the government even collected sales tax for the sale, but now the owner will be able to recover less of his investment should he decide to sell the firearms, or should he die and his estate inherit the firearms. The government has effectively taken money out of some firearms owners pockets, every time they prohibit a firearm.
