Read my private reply to you. Three black clad LEOs that weren’t local Sheriff’s dept. or PD were at my door last night. They have started in Kalifornia. The TV news and papers have not reported any of this that I am aware of.

"CA Compliant" in some instances means you have a rifle which can be restored to its original "assault weapon" configuration in about two minutes.

It's pretty amazing that attaching a three-ounce plastic pistol grip to your rifle could open one up to a felony prison sentence. The courts are moving, but very, very slowly.

What's happening?

How does a gun help against a rocket fired miles away, a drone or airplane flying overhead, or a massive tank driving through your house?

The simple answer to the question is “asymmetric warfare.” Smart fighters don’t put their troops in front of the enemy’s best weapons. They use their best troops against their enemy’s week points, and exploit those weak points mercilessly.

In the hypothetical event that the federal government attempted to impose tyranny upon the citizenry of the United States, it would likely trigger the largest insurgency that the modern world has ever known.

Despite all of our awesome technology, we stink at fighting insurgencies.

We lost in Vietnam. We won the conventional war against the Iraqi military easily, but we didn’t defeat the insurgency. We’re losing Afghanistan, and our leadership has no intention of fighting to win.

All of these insurgencies have been overseas, where the supply lines were long, but relatively well-protected. The producers and supply chain itself were never threatened.

In the event of an American insurgency, it wouldn’t be a straight-up fight of partisans with rifles fighting against regime tanks, helicopters, and drones.

It would be a war where “killing” a fighter jet occurs by assassinating aircraft mechanics, or burning the homes of employees of the companies that make crucial replacement parts. It would be a war where every elected official, government employee, and skilled worker in the supply chain would be a target, every day of their lives.

In short, it would be a nasty, brutish conflict full of atrocities with no battle lines, no rear areas, no retreat, and little chance for government forces to survive over the long term.

As long as the American public outguns the military—and they do by more than 90 million firearms—no sane government would dare turn on the American people. That is the reason it is so important for the citizenry to jealously guard their Second Amendment rights.

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...

The only difference is the Bullet Button, I mean “tool”.
They thought their “Law” would prevent you from removing the Magazine and force you to stop for a few minutes before you could reload.

Then the “tool” was redesigned. LOL

Once they figured that out, they changed the Law again in their attempt to make Patriotic Americans “Overnight Felons”. They never stop, so it’s best to just ignore them.

My Private Collection of Magpuls is somewhere around here...
