Search and study and you'll find out why your thought is unfounded in fact. It might be best for you to do a lot more listening than talking for a while based on your apparent level of knowledge. No one is going to spoon feed it to you, you'll have to seek out knowledge on your own.

I'm retired. That's right, retired. I don't want to hear about the cop who stopped you today or how you didn't think you should get a ticket. That just makes me grumpy! -
I will if you care to listen.
Don't assume the worst in people until they show you it. You didnt know if it was illegal, but you thought it could be. You had no faith that the admin here would stop such an act, or the membership would flag an illegal sales thread.
Its like the new member who comes here and "teaches" Calguns about CA laws...as if no one here knows the laws or has experience in the laws. That new member assumes they have knowledge others don't without first investigating that assumption.
I'll also say this, I am one of the guys here who will hold that mirror up to your face. I get crap for it, but when a person sticks their foot in their mouth, I give it a solid push in.

That wasnt the point of my thread. I can care less if someone is trying to sell something they shouldnt be or not. Im just an observant person and was simply expressing a thought and/or concern of the possibility of what my thread was intended for. Then you jump my **** because you think I'm calling someone out or because you think I'm questioning someone's ignorance of the laws? Not so, I'm pretty savy on the laws as I figure many here are as well. Perhaps I should have worded the original post a little differently. I may be somewhat new here, but I don't post to start conflict. I'm the same way with push. Probably why it keeps going back and forthI will if you care to listen.

Jason, i feel that you are over analyzing people a little bit. yes, there is DFG people on here, yes, there is cops on here. they are part of the firearms community as well. whether there personal and political feelings on gun rights/legalities are the same or not.
Diesel: way to be a welcoming member of this forum and treat people the same as you want to be treated. if you were newer to the forum and made posts for whatever reason and someone treated you in the jack *** way you are talking to jason i'm sure you would have more of a social life and would have found something else to do with your spare time a LOOONGG time ago.
bottom line: jason is not the only one on here who posts about conspiracy theories, go search the hunting/fishing section, or how about the second amendment sub forum for people to berate there as well??Comment

You might not be too observant if you thought selling a lower, as an 80% configuration, is illegal. You may not be that "savy" on the CA penal code, either.
Never assume your first guess is the right one when you have unlimited access to the source document. Its not shameful to look it up again and again.
The crusade here on Calguns involves proper understanding of CA law regarding firearms (also, proper understanding of mozzarella sticks being served with marinara). Too often, online warriors push their own understanding without simply checking for themselves.

Ok, I am aware that you can buy or sell an 80% lower the way it is because it is not considered a firearm in it's state. I am aware that you can complete the milling of an 80% and build for YOURSELF without any further legality procedures. I am aware that this is legal as long as you dont intend to sell without taking the proper steps.Not to pry, but...

However I am NOT aware that one could mill, finish, and COMPLETE an 80% lower and sell it without being stamped.(sell as a complete stripped lower) If I'm wrong about that, than I have learned something new. That's why there was a question mark behind it in the OP. That's what I have said. But it's still not the point of my thread.
But like I said, I really don't give a damn. This is just in defense for myself.Last edited by Jason25; 02-11-2013, 8:16 AM.Comment

LOL... people hate seeing themselves in a mirror.
you think I am treating you badly... re-read your first post and tell me how you would react to someone coming at you with that.
There are two things you need to remember about the truth.
1) It sometimes hurts
2) It doesnt care if it hurts
re-read your OP and place the shoe on the other foot. I am sorry you feel threatened by me, but you walked into a room and made that announcement about everyone else in the room and now you are butt hurt over the reaction.
As I said, welcome to Calguns, a diverse COMMUNITY of novice, professional and hobbyist, who will all treat you as you treat them.Last edited by dieselpower; 02-11-2013, 11:11 AM.Comment

negative kind sir, perhaps you need to read the post for what its meant to be and not get so defensive. Was it directed at you?LOL... people hate seeing themselves in a mirror.
