    Everybody on the range will stop loading their featureless single shot muzzleloaders , and run over to see what the commotion is.

    They will all gather around you and drool and gaze in awe upon our awesome toys that they will never be able to own in their oppressed lives.

    We will be the talk of town, and gun/military rag magazines will seek us out every month for a chance to touch and shoot an AR15, or an AK47.




    We can at least look forward to that right? Just trying to keep positive.

    I will be long gone to a free state by then.

      in 25 years California will be so broke there won't be a state government to regulate anything worth a crap... much less gun laws.

        Who do you know in the state of California that legally currently owns an SKS D model?

        For that matter, can you please provide some documentation that states I can leave any of my RAWs to my son who was six years old when I registered them?

        Honestly. I'm not being a you know what on purpose. Answer these questions for me because I'd really like to have some faith that there is hope for us in this state.
        Separate issues. I lost my SKS-D in that fiasco too BTW.

        RAWs can't be transferred to anyone in CA regardless of age. If they're not banned by name but only by feature remove all the banned features, de-register them, and then transfer them to your son.

        IF the new AW ban is passed the rifles will be configured into whatever configuration keeps them from being an AW, and they will remain unregistered, even if that means a barrel with no gas port, and making them a straight bull bolt action.

            Separate issues, agreed. However the fact remains that the freedom to possess what was once legal to purchase and own was stripped from us.

            My fear is that the government will one day rule that it must step in and save us from ourselves because of the growing numbers of homicides and accidental shootings. Whereby every law abiding citizen will be expected to turn in or sell (out of state) all semiautomatic weapons.

            I imagine wheel guns, lever actions, pumps, and bolts will still be acceptable, but semi's are too similar to military arms.

            Pew, pew, pew, pew will be verboten.

                If some level of government had that information, what would they do with it? How would having that info benefit public safety? How would it benefit law enforcement?

                  He is an anti-gun guy and he said. "Well, you can't eat ammunition". I replied with "When I'm starving to death with a case of ammunition, who's door do you think I am going to knock on?"

                    Yes, but then it's no longer an AR-15 (at least the way I define one). But I get your drift.
