I like the idea of a case by case assessment. I feel like they should have already been doing this in the background and questioning people with sus armouries.

But I strongly disagree with the removal of the class system. I know it will get abused and some yahoo will successfully argue they need a semi auto rifle for some stupid reason and get it without having to go through the current class C license requirements.

Our class system is very effective and shouldn't be watered down because of this.

Edit: basically, in the list of tools, keep the classes, they are very good but might need some updating to put more in class C.
