Remember the good ol’ days when they wanted to ban sawed off shotguns and pistols because they weren’t “military” type weapons?

And now they want to go after guns that look like military weapons.

>>Remember the good ol’ days<<

I was a college freshman when I ordered an Argentinian Luger through The local newspaper for the outrageous price of $40. It arrived the next week in a brown paper bag. I still think I paid too much.
Should have bought the new $120 Browning Hipower made in Belgium.

Back in 1989 Neal Knox of Gun Week Magazine read and found the first California AW ban act also banned the lever action rifles.
California caught so much hell over it that the lever action part was removed and the act shelved. (I said to friends...”Get ready! Something bad is going to happen!”)

Then the state released seven time loser Pat Purdy from a mental institution, allowed him to buy an AK47/s in violation of Federal laws, and allowed him to buy a handgun, passing the waiting period.

He then went and shot up the Stockton school yard, killing several kids, then killed himself.

The shelved act was pulled out and passed before opposition could be mounted against it.
