It’s never ending.
One of their latest Laws is turning the “CA Legal” AR-15 into an Assault Weapon. It’s like Magic. One day my AR-15 is sitting in my Gun Safe minding its own business and next day its owner (me) is a wannabe Felon if he doesn’t Register it.
They are the ones that came up with the CA Legal AR-15 design requirements in the first place. They thought they were slick requiring a “tool” to remove the Magazine. Somebody invented a tool, a bullet button, and that was that.
It takes five seconds to switch Magazine’s with a little practice using the Bullet Button. I just love Human ingenuity.
Well, that didn’t sit well with the Liberal Political Elite, so they had to act. Now they want a fixed Magazine that cannot be removed and are blaming the San Bernardino Jihadist Murders for the need to change the Law.
Oh yeah, I heard they also want to do Background Checks on anyone who purchases Ammunition. Now when I go to Vegas to play Poker, I’ll be buying my Ammunition there as well. Nevada can get the Sales Tax Revenue.
Whatever they come up doesn’t matter to me. I will not comply. I guess I’ll become an overnight Felon, so be it.
When they first came up with a Law requiring Registration of Assault Weapons years ago, I complied and Registered my AK-47.
It bugged me so much being on the “Assault Weapon Registry” that I decided to sell the Gun to an out of State Buyer.
When the CA Legal AR was available, I bought one and here we are. These people will never stop. Give an inch, they take a thousand Miles.
This is exactly what will happen on a Nationwide Basis if a Democrat wins the Presidency, no doubt in my mind.
The Weenie Attacks never end.
Move to Pennsylvania. Land of liquor, tattoos, churches and guns. Cost of living is insanely low. You can grow food here right out of the ground — and there’s fuel in it too!
Gun laws are only aimed at honest citizens. Does anyone think that a street hood would be “OMG, another law, better get rid of this gun”...
My local firearms range in San Mateo County, Calif has just closed to public shooting. Coyote Point range is now for use by our local PD/sheriff only.
In the last year that’s three major local public ranges closed; San Francisco at Lake Merced, Chabot Gun Club in the East Bay, and now Coyote Point to the south of San Francisco.
One solution is to break up California into several New States: a highly populated coastal leftist state, a northern more rural state and an inland rural state.
$100 for an AR lower is not bad insurance in CA right now.
It is a lot harder for them to take away a gun that you already have, than it is for them to prevent you from getting a gun you don’t have.
I can always build it up later.
If they say turn ‘em in, that’s what they get, just a lower.
Oh, and I do happen to own a 3-D printer. They gunna take that too?
The founder of the first gun control organization (HANDGUN CONTROL INC, now the Brady Center) speaks his mind...in 1976.
Nelson T. ‘Pete’ Shields
Founder of Handgun Control, Inc.
“I’m convinced that we have to have federal legislation to build on. We’re going to have to take one step at a time, and the first step is necessarily — given the political realities — going to be very modest.
Of course, it’s true that politicians will then go home and say, ‘This is a great law. The problem is solved.’ And it’s also true that such statements will tend to defuse the gun-control issue for a time.
So then we’ll have to strengthen that law, and then again to strengthen that law, and maybe again and again. Right now, though, we’d be satisfied not with half a loaf but with a slice. Our ultimate goal — TOTAL CONTROL of handguns in the United States — is going to take time.
My estimate is from seven to ten years. The problem is to slow down the increasing number of handguns sold in this country. The second problem is to get them all registered. And the final problem is to make the possession of all handguns and all handgun ammunition — except for the military, policemen, licensed security guards, licensed sporting clubs, and licensed gun collectors — TOTALLY ILLEGAL.”
-Pete Shields, Chairman and founder, Handgun Control Inc., “A Reporter At Large: Handguns,” The New Yorker, July 26, 1976, 57-58
“Yes, I’m for an outright ban [on handguns].”
-Pete Shields, Chairman emeritus, Handgun Control, Inc., 60 Minutes interview
HCI, around 1984, came out in favor of a ban on semi-auto rifles and shotguns.
SO, when a gun controller says they ONLY WANT TO REGISTER and CONTROL GUNS, NOT BAN THEM, rest assured they really want to BAN THEM ALL.
Gun grabbers are always quoting cops who say that they need stronger gun laws.
If they were literate enough to do a little reading, they would learn that the Constitution and the Bill of Rights were carefully constructed to prevent the government and in particular the law enforcement entities from abusing the people’s God given rights
So quoting some cop as a reason to pass another abusive law exposes either ignorance or a willful disregard for our Constitution and all it stands for, as the Second Amendment is not the only part of it that is in jeopardy.
I’ve heard that Newsom’s proposed initiative dropped its prohibition on the US Post Office delivering mail - the part prohibiting out of state ammunition purchases. Does anyone have real information on this?
It’s long past time to acknowledge that Liberals are, quite simply, viscerally offended by any people who empower themselves in any way.
