Gun control by executive order

As part of the "sanctions" against Russia, the Pres. has banned importation of Russian-made AK-47's and Saiga rifles and shotguns.  Perhaps this move is really motivated by a perceived need for sanctions and not Obama's gun control ideas.  We probably will never know.  The  use of sanctions, and esp. the use of sanctions relevant to constitutional rights, need more congressional control.

    Congress allowed much of their powers to be usurped by an ever-expanding dictatorial bureaucracy. The treasury department gives the president a free hand in driving foreign policy with economic sanctions.
