Cali just went to plaid today. They retroactively banned >10-rounders, took away the bullet button, added even more crap to their AWB . . . the whole 9 yards. Naturally someone in the process said standard-cap mags over 10 rounds were "only for killing large numbers of people" or words to that effect.

One more straw in the haystack of reasons I refuse to ever live there.

Gotcha. I knew they were in motion but hadn't heard they had been signed yet. Looks like yesterday was the day.

At least everyone will be safer now.

Don't forget that you also won't be able to buy ammo without a special license and background check in CA pretty soon. And no more online ammo buying- not sure when that little gem kicks in. :mad:

If it wasn't for the Navy, I wouldn't live in this ridiculous state. A bunch of unenforceable reactive measures that do absolutely nothing to make anyone "safer".

Makes it "safer" for the criminals.

What will they blame next when this doesn't stop people from killing each other, bunch of morons in the legislature, if you own a gun in CA might as well sell it now and just buy a sling shot. Maybe this will fix itself if CA has the big one and most of CA slides into the ocean.

I pity the state LEO's who have to enforce this shitstorm legislation. Hopefully wise ones will look away.

Remember, there is an organization that fights the people trying to take away your gun rights - and it just takes 1 more vote on the Supreme Court "to reinterpret" the 2nd Amendment from an individual right to a collective right. And these are the people writing the laws....

For years in Congress, DeGette has been the prime sponsor on a federal ban on high-capacity magazines. But despite the congresswoman’s claim, ammunition magazines can be reloaded with more bullets and can be reused hundreds of times. “These are ammunition, they’re bullets, so the people who have those now, they’re going to shoot them, so if you ban them in the future, the number of these high-capacity magazines is going to decrease dramatically over time because the bullets will have been shot and there won’t be any more available,” she said at Tuesday’s forum, hosted by The Denver Post’s editorial board.

Some are getting angry in CA........

"These are constitutionally-illegitimate laws passed by a patently illegitimate government that had the audacity to attack and criminalize millions of its own people in Stalin-esque fashion,” said Firearms Policy Coalition President Brandon Combs.

Jerry Brown and the California Legislature have openly declared war on gun owners and the Bill of Rights,” continued Combs. “By signing the bills that he did, Governor Brown showed us that he has no respect for the rule of law, reason, or law-abiding people. I submit that he and his ilk deserve the same contempt in return.”

“The government would be wise to remember that there are more California residents with guns than there are government officials to take them away. To coin a phrase, ‘come and take it’,” Combs concluded.

Umm . . . I don't think "to coin a phrase" means what Mr. Combs thinks it means. That phrase was coined before the Roman Empire.

Meanwhile, others in CA are already finding the workarounds within the law. Did some reading this morning and they apparently already have Bullet Button mods to meet the definition. Going featurless was never addressed in the laws, which was always an option, and the single-biggest thing I didn't get with the ban law was that this apparently opens the door to register your rifles as "AWs" again, something that was turned off, even for .mil guys. Now you can register it and still run it in a "normal" configuration as you would in most other states. I know people get weird about registering, but a lot of those people are also the same ones that won't abide by the new law anyway.

My newest SBR. BCM 9" 300 Blackout with an Aimpoint T1, Troy BUIS and a sweet little Streamlight TLR-3 light. I bought all the upper components separately and built it myself thus avoiding having to look at the BCM etchings on their complete uppers. I've been putting off adding a new caliber for the longest time. After lots of research I finally convinced myself that a silenced 300 BLK will make a fine across the room blaster. I have a Silencer Co. Omega can in jail waiting for a stamp. As soon as the Omega gets approved this SBR with can will rest in the corner beside the night stand. Might kill a pig or two with it as well.
