Executive Orders by the President do not carry the force of laws passed by Congress - They are just orders/directions to executive branches such as Homeland Security. They cannot contradict existing Federal laws, do not trump state laws and are essentially ignorable by the States themselves. Just look at how the states are passing marijuana laws right and left to understand how laughable Obama's "orders" will be. I think this move will not only challenge the constitutionality of gun laws but will also challenge executive orders themselves.
