Well, lets see...California...

I bought my first handgun in Cali way back in 1968. Only had to wait three days to pick it up. None of this extra baggage tagged on since.

Must be 21 years of age to buy-Check.
Handgun and rifle registration-Check.
Background checks-Check.
Ban on A-s-s-ault rifles.-Check.
Ten day Waiting Periods-Check.
Red Flag law-Check
FBI checks-check.
Only California approved hand guns allowed-Check.
Tax on ammo-Check.
Background check for ammo purchases-Check.
Age limit of 21 for all guns. Check.
Micro-stamping -Check.
Age limit for ammo-Check.
Gun free zone-Check.
Ban on large magazines-Check.
No private individual sales-Check.
No buying out of state and bringing them into California.

At least the California gun laws have resulted in my removing a pistol grip from a rifle. That should make everybody in California much safer.
