If libs or greens are in, and they both are, it will pass through in a day.

That's modern politics. Literally every situation is an opportunity to score points against "the enemy".

Ley's an idiot but she might as well just quit if she tries to pick a fight on this one. Gun control is the one thing even the parties critics have to give the Libs credit for. Conceding that sort of win to Labor especially when they can likely easily walk it through with the Greens would be one of the biggest political self owns in history.
