The cost/benefit ratio. Gun owners can do the same. Just give up the 'law abiding' bullshit and admit that you only obey the laws you agree with.
Call it civil disobedience and you're wrong--it's only civil disobedience if it's out in the open and you're willing to suffer the consequences of your actions. Too many gun owners aren't willing to do that preferring to hide their illegal behavior.
Be out, be loud, be proud and show yourself. Garner support because the people will see you're right or be 'law abiding' and register your AR/AK.

Not all gun rights activists are neo-Nazi whackjobs, but all the whackjobs are gun rights activists.
