Yes, that's another requirement I would institute. (not enough coffee yet or I wouldn't have forgotten it)

• Passing grade on a test of knowledge of the Constitution.

That wouldn't guarantee that they would respect it but it would eliminate ignorance as an excuse. Publish the results of the whole test so we would know what questions they failed. Before they are elected!

Ammunition sellers in Reno and Las Vegas support this

To buy a $5 box of .22 CA lawmakers want the buyer to pay twenty times that for a background check, fill out forms & pay for laminated license card? At what what point does a government act become unconstitutional? Is it as the trap door opens when you are on the scaffold with a noose around your neck?

Road trip!

Invest a some helper springs for the back of your car or truck. You can bet that California police will be watching those border areas for cars that are loaded with heavy stuff, just like they used to do with moonshine runners.

There will be some real opportunities for big money to made in CA soon.

Many of our founders did will smuggling through their tyrannical governments too.

I thought we are supposedly to run a background check on illegal, since when gun owner is illegal and requires background check.

Well screw that then - we'll take the RV-6.

Now gotta figure out how much 2,000 rounds of 5.56, 2,000 rounds of 45, 2,000 rounds of 9 weighs...
Oughtta be no problem if I leave the wife home!

The inmates are running the asylum in California. Are there any sane people left there except JIMROB?

[BenLurkin]

I remember when I lost my mind.
There was something so pleasant about that place;
Even your emotions have an echo in so much space.

And when you’re out there without care....
Yeah, I was out of touch.
But it wasn’t because I didn’t know enough,
I just knew too much

Does that make me crazy?
Possibly.

[Charles Martel]

Now gotta figure out how much 2,000 rounds of 5.56, 2,000 rounds of 45, 2,000 rounds of 9 weighs...

Multiply accordingly, then tally up and add a bit for packaging weight:

9mm Luger
Hornady 115gr JHP/XTP
Rounds per pound: 38.10
Weight per 100 rounds (lbs): 2.63

.45ACP
230gr Winchester Ball
Rounds per pound: 21.33
Weight per 100 rounds (lbs): 4.69

.223/5.56X45
(milsurp) British Radway Green SS109 63gr
Rounds per pound: 37.21
Weight per 100 rounds (lbs): 2.69

Guesstimate: Roughly 60 lbs. each for the 9mm and 5.56 and close to twice that for the .45. You may need a bit more runway than when your wife is aboard.

The gangsters had better declare they ammunition they picked up in Mexico before reentering California, or they will be BREAKING the LAW! Take THAT, gangbangers! /s;)

We already have to show our FOID license in Ss-Illi-noise to buy ammo.

It was so refreshing to be able to buy ammo right off the shelf when we were in Montana last month. No FOID, no questions asked, and the best part no sales tax.

I so want to move out.
