== Argument ==
According to [[Gun politics in the United States|gun rights]] activist [[Neal Knox]], the Nazi gun control hypothesis was first suggested in a 1992 book by Jay Simkin and [[Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership]] (JPFO) founder [[Aaron S. Zelman]]. In it, they compared the German gun laws of 1928 and 1938, and the U.S. Congressional hearings preceding the [[Gun Control Act of 1968]].<ref name=Knox2009p286>{{cite book |last=Knox |first=Neal |year=2009 |title=The Gun Rights War: Dispatches from the Front Lines 1966 - 2000 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=dA3pGSYG2yIC&pg=PA286 |publisher=MacFarlane |location=Phoenix, Arizona |page=286 |isbn=9780976863304 |access-date=2016-10-04 |archive-date=2018-04-18 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180418122401/https://books.google.com/books?id=dA3pGSYG2yIC&pg=PA286 |url-status=live }}</ref>{{sfn|Winkler|2011|p=339}} Supporters of the Nazi gun control argument point to a request by U.S. senator [[Thomas J.

Regarding the "Nazi gun control theory", anthropologist Abigail Kohn wrote in her 2004 book:<ref name=Kohn2004p187/><blockquote>Such counterfactual arguments are problematic because they reinvent the past to imagine a possible future. In fact, Jews were not well-armed and were not able to adequately defend themselves against Nazi aggression. Thus, reimagining a past in which they were and did does not provide a legitimate basis for arguments about what might have followed.</blockquote>

== Argument ==
According to [[Gun politics in the United States|gun rights]] activist [[Neal Knox]], the Nazi gun control hypothesis was first suggested in a 1992 book by Jay Simkin and [[Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership]] (JPFO) founder [[Aaron S. Zelman]]. In it, they compared the German gun laws of 1928 and 1938, and the U.S. Congressional hearings preceding the [[Gun Control Act of 1968]].<ref name=Knox2009p286>{{cite book |last=Knox |first=Neal |year=2009 |title=The Gun Rights War: Dispatches from the Front Lines 1966 - 2000 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=dA3pGSYG2yIC&pg=PA286 |publisher=MacFarlane |location=Phoenix, Arizona |page=286 |isbn=9780976863304 |access-date=2016-10-04 |archive-date=2018-04-18 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180418122401/https://books.google.com/books?id=dA3pGSYG2yIC&pg=PA286 |url-status=live }}</ref>{{sfn|Winkler|2011|p=339}} Supporters of the Nazi gun control argument point to a request by U.S. senator [[Thomas J.

Dodd was a prosecutor during the post-war [[Nuremberg trials]] of Nazi war criminals, and as a senator he sponsored gun control bills that led to creation of the 1968 U.S. law.

Regarding the "Nazi gun control theory", anthropologist Abigail Kohn wrote in her 2004 book:<ref name=Kohn2004p187/><blockquote>Such counterfactual arguments are problematic because they reinvent the past to imagine a possible future.
