    the new ammunition law

    gents,

    when does the new ammunition law go into effect?
    does it forbid F2F sales of ammunition as well?

    Face to face will be like a firearm sale. At a dealed with a background check.

        Can't the NRA sue to stop this law or is in done? Like ammo restrictions would stop any recent mass shooters?

          Im sure there will be a suit the question is will the courts uphold the laws of the united states.

            Thanks don.

            at least that gives the collector community a good amount of time to stock up!

                So are you allowed to give ammo to your family members, including kids? How does this impact firearms training and youth shooting leagues? Can instructors give students ammo of do they have to bring their own? How are LEOs and retired LEOs impacted by this?

                      I hope all the big gun and ammo companies stop selling to law enforcement in CA as well!

                        Gov. Brown signed it today.

                        Kinda surprised. He's been rather pragmatic till now with his veto of the really dumb gun bills put up. there was one a few years back which basically would've turned all of our collections illegal, and was sensibly vetoed.

                        the banning the bullet button is interesting too; does this require then that all those ARs and AKs out there have to have their mags permanently affixed to the receivers? might be a good time to become a gunsmith if that's the case, there'll be a lot of work coming your way!

                        But back to your question Bryanv790; what the gun control movement is doing to impose their agenda is rather similar in tactics to what the anti-abortion movement is doing to limit abortions: attack from the fringes, since the frontal assaults always fail.

                        Banning guns outright never wins or gains any traction because of the legal precedents in the courts and the interpretation of the 2nd amendment after District of Columbia v. Heller in 2008, not to mention the incredible strength of the gun lobby/nra in influencing votes.

                        As such, the forces at work trying to pass gun control legislation have to put up barriers to entry, and try to nip away at it from the fringes. Cant ban AWs? Ok we'll ban mags. Impose waiting periods. Ban f2f sales. Impose checks. We'll make it prohibitively expensive. We'll make it so hard to open a gun store, fewer people will do it. This sort of thing.

                        If you cant ban something, legislate it so heavily and make it so expensive that people quit wanting to do it. It worked with smoking, after all.

                          If we could push this right here we might be on to something

                            More reason to take my vacations out of state and make occasional stops.

                            I'm a 3rd gen CA resident, but the middle of America looks better everyday. If I find work elsewhere, adios amigos.
