How does this work?

[Jim McCoin]

Im curious why vendors don't ship over 10 round mags to cali. I know they are not legal unless you had them before the cut off date. Why does the vendor care.

Has cali. threatend to prosecute or fine them, our state can hardly keep the lights on or the doors open, just wan't to know how it works.

Curious Jim.

because its a felony?


Importation of "hi caps" is a felony. Same as if Joe Shmoe hops over to Nevada buys some 15 rounders and comes back to Ca.


Importation / Manufacture / Offer to Sale

big no no .

Im refering to the out of state vendor, does he get sued or fined? how long is the cali arm of the law?

Probably long enough to have someone extradited for committing multiple felonies or at least have warrants out for their arrest if they ever set foot in California. Not to mention that DOJ/BATF would probably get involved since it's a firearm specific crime.

Felonies are kinda a big deal.

Just sayin.

California can prosecute out-of-state parties that violate CA laws when the transaction or activity crosses state lines, involves a CA resident, etc.

See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_arm_statute

It's not just gun stuff - CA has been active in jumping on folks selling aftermarket auto parts into CA that are not smog legal per CARB exemption and are not marked "For racing use only."

CA generally doesn't do criminal charges for matters like this but sends a cease-and-desist order, and then files suit for subsequent violations and tries to include charges for cleaning up the situation (enforcement costs, cost of seizing goods, etc.)

Ignore any asshat who says it's legal for a party to hang outside of a given state and ship illegal products into that other state. There definitely will be negative consequences.

that and since its interstate - the FBI would be lovin the situation as well

Typically when a person commits a felony, they don't get fined or sued by the state. They get extradited and then go to jail.

Then he gets to become somebody's ***** (other than the state's that is).

I've seen a couple of places out of state, sell the korean KCI high cap mags to CA residents as rebuild kits. Since they're technically selling them as rebuild kits, would this be illegal or are they barely getting around the law by this?

Even still, that doesn't stop somebody in CA from putting them back together illegally if they really wanted to.

Thank you guy's that's wanted to know.

They are legally selling parts.

It would be a felony to assemble them in California.

In the case of a Corp, who would be the "fallguy". Would they go after the CEO?
