Well, my perception of the gun lobby is that a big part of the effort is centralized. At least that's my impression after reading the nytimes article.

I don't have any insight into the gun lobby so I can't tell whether it is any accurate.

I fear the gun argument is further weakened by the fact that civilians can't have big anti-aircraft guns in their backyard pointed towards the sky. I bet I can't operate a decent early warning radar in my backyard without running afoul of some zoning ordinance or another.
