    Joseph Manton - Master Gunmaker, 1766-1835

    From yesterdays YouTube Rabbit Hole session.

    Joseph Manton. You'll like this one. Brilliant mind, innovative, exquisite firearms.

    British gunsmith who innovated sport shooting, improved weapon quality and paved the way for the modern artillery shell.

    What compelling interest has any level of government in knowing what guns are owned by civilians? (Those owned by government should be inventoried and tracked, for exactly the same reasons computers and desks and chairs are tracked: responsible care of public property.)

    If some level of government had that information, what would they do with it? How would having that info benefit public safety? How would it benefit law enforcement?
