Oh, FFS. 924(c) was enacted in <i>1968</i>. I don&#x27;t think the &quot;anti-gun lobby&quot; (as disingenuous and argument-poisoning a phrasing as &quot;death tax&quot; or &quot;pro life&quot;, if you ask me) was much  of a thing then, and even to the extent it did exist, it certainly wasn&#x27;t anything like the thing that the &quot;Mah cold, dead hands!&quot; crowd reflexively vilifies today.
