    want honest opinions.....

    is it too late for buying a california legal AR style rifle? considering what happened in aurora, colorado recently, along with SB248, and the very real possibility that our Dear Leader may get re-elected this fall, i am torn over whether to buy my first AR, or not.....please advise.

      Is it too late right now? No, go to your local shop and buy one.

        get one if you want one, not because you're afraid you won't be able to get one later

        if you want one, get it. being on Calguns, you'll be better informed by paying attention here than most gun owners IMO

            If you want one, buy it. Even if some sort of legislation is passed, confiscations are unlikely. It will be hard to get one is all.

                It is easier for tha gubmint to prevent you from getting something, than to take what you already have. Not saying they can't do both, but ask someone who wanted to buy a listed lower in 2002.

                      I don't get the impression that Obama or Romney will push for more gun laws, or at least restrictions as it pertains to AR15's. Both seem to realize that the CO shooting has more to do with the mental state of the individual than gun laws. I am more worried about SB249 and how it specifically attacks California owners though.

                        Not on the black market or for criminals.

                        In fact, after they are banned or heavily restricted, we might be able to get a group discount from the local gangs.

                          already have the cute dog, ahren. burbur, i think you have made the best argument so far- it will probably be awhile before the jack-booted thugs come knocking on our doors...guess i need to put a few guns up for sale & start looking for the best deal on a Ruger SR556.....
