With the CPC willing to stop the committee from adopting the regulation proposal it appears more and more certain our doom date is October 4th.

With that in mind I wouldn't be surprised if stores restock some handguns during the summer. I highly doubt they wouldn't be able to clear their stock over 3 months.

Couldn't they just do an OIC and call it a day?

Only after the committee approves of the regulation or 30 sitting where the committee does nothing.

How did this work for the AR15 bans? I don't recall any of this drama when that went down.

Thats actually part of the big lawsuit, they didn't follow proper procedures.

The government decided to avoid all that and just do it the legal way this time.

OICs are legal though... The government can issue such OICs legally.

They are, but there is a procedure that needs to be followed. The government can't just use executive action for all its desires.
