A California gun shop sees sales of firearms that use bullet buttons to swap magazines sky rocket as new gun laws that will ban those types of weapons looms.

Christopher Lapinski, the operations manager at Last Stand Readiness & Tactical in Sacramento, told Fox 40 Sacramento that he’s seeing more people coming in to buy the gun before the law takes effect.

"The whole anti-gun movement, taking guns from citizens, literally has everyone and their grandmother buying firearms before they can't get them anymore because they want to be able to be protected," Lapinski said.

Bullet Buttons and going featureless will buy a few years.

I thought there would be no grandfathering? The new mag ban doesn’t allow it.

States like CA, NY, NJ are steamrolling our 2A rights, but an HRC SCOTUS will back these states up.

Jihadists are rolling over with laughter as they clutch their fully auto AK-47s.

The magazine eject button is surrounded by a plastic sleeve so your finger can’t get in there. You need a bullet to poke it.

I feel dirty now thinking about this dreck.

For certain rifles to be legal in California, they have to have fixed magazines, ie: you have to use a tool to remove them. The Bullet Button allows shooters to press the tip of a .556 round into the mag release and release the magazine. This has been accepted as complying with the law.

One of the many reasons I relocated to the Great State of Texas 4.5 yrs ago.

May God help my birth-state.

So what happens to preexisting old large mags?

I would agree but jokes are supposed to be humorous.

Thanks.

I would never imagine that a state in the U.S. would go to that extreme. Of course people will figure out a way to get around most idiotic laws.

Turn them in, destroy, send or sale out of state. Current legal hi-cap pre-existing mags cannot be sold or transferred in state.

Banned and subject to confiscation.

Pray for the Free Californians.

Maybe they escape and prosper elsewhere.

CA is done.

Same thing as after the first "assualt weapon" registration laws decades ago: most are stashed away.

Some day I will try and find out just what % of owners actually did "register" back then. I sent mine out of state for safe keeping.

I do remember hearing a police call on the scanner some time after that period, and the dispatcher telling the responding cops that there was an assault weapon registered to that address. The cops were using the registration info, regardless of the bleating of politicians.

No grandfathering but “possession is __% of the law” ?
