    Hey guys, (and acouple gals I see!)
    New here, wanted to introduce myself - I'm a MinuteMan, w/ S.O.S. and C.C.I.R. Curio and Relic liscensed. Been shooting for years but have gotten very political over the past 3. Seems like protecting our gun rights falls right in line w/ defending the country from illegal invasion - just seems like you can't do one w/out the other!
    I got to speak to a DOJ field agent the other day. According to him, the DOJ will not make a ruling now or in the forseeable future as tho the legality of whether or not an OLL is an assault rifle - assuming it has been completed. It is completely up to local law enf. and ultimately the court to determine a weapons status based on interpretation of the law - SO YOU BETTER HAVE A GOOD LAWYER! "the capacity to accept" is again ambigous so the DOJ is leaving that up to local law enf.
    Furthermore, there is no record kept of these OLL's. There is no way or desire for the DOJ at present to know what citizen purchased which lower or how many. As long as the finished rifle is configured properly(SB 23), we should be good. I just pieced my AR and am now working on an AK lower.
    This is probably not news to you all and I apologize if you've all heard this before!
    I'm actually tryin to find out if it is legal to carry a pistol in a thigh holster in public. I heard your goodtogo if it is not loaded, someone else said it CAN be loaded - Anybody know for sure???

            Wow, such hostility towards someone trying to save the country!

            I believe "why" is not part of the Constitution. I'm assuming you aren't familiar enough w/ the law to answer the Q???
            What exactly about the MinuteMen makes you ???

              Droping in to say Hi. Name's Miguel but I perffer to go by Mike-O. I've been intrested in firearms for a couple years now, which lead me to pickup Airsoft as a hobby (Own a G&G RK103, member of Russian Federation Military airsoft group) and started really learning about guns these past 2 years. I'm deeply in love with both the AK and most H&K's (G3's, MP5's,416,HK33's, etc.) Hope to be here and learn more, specifically laws about owning AK's. Hope to build and have my first gun which will be an AK type CA legal of course. Im new to guns in general and hope to learn much from you all.

              Live out here in the OC, so cal, the city of Santa Ana. I do believe I'm minutes away from J&J armory.

                Hi from New York

                Hi guys,
                I retired from watchmaking and have some more free time to read the forums and learn even more about guns.

                I may even do some post of my own.
                I like to hunt whitetails and bears the most, but I have done some other hunting out west.

                I will see you in the forums
                All the best

                  New meat here. Long time THR/TFL member. Live in Bakersfield CA. Mid 50's single male. When not overworking myself, I shoot, hunt and go off-roading. Spend lots of time in deserts and mountains. I live in a county that is extremely liberal in issuing CCW's. Have had mine about 7 years.

                      Greetings,
                      I'm here to learn more than anything. I've had a couple built OLLs and now waiting for the Magpul Masada (fingers crossed).

                        hello everyone. CDJ here from Imperial County, CA. I shoot competition at my local club [I.V. Rifle and Pistol Assn., Inc]

                        I'll be looking for the shotgunners mostly, but have some questions on the gun laws. Mainly about the why's/how's of owning other than Bolt type competition rifles.

                        Thanks for having me. I'll pobably get more than I give--but I'll contibute all I can.

                        Cordially

                              Hello All!!!!

                              Hello everyone!!
                              I stumbled upon this site from another gun forum. I have lately been wondering if there was a site for California gun owners and low and behold I found one. I have been following the controversy about the new AB1471 bill which now seems like it is full of holes.

                                Hi Everyone,

                                Newby joining up. I've always been interested in firearm-related issues (as a gun owner and shooter myself, finally getting around to joining! I found this place from a posting on the BARF (Bay Area Riders Forum) board, and am using the same name at both places. I am an attorney, but I specialize in patent litigation and intelectual property, so I am probably not much help when it comes to 2nd amendment and gun laws -- although I will contribute what I can!
