    Juggernaut Immediately Cease Selling and Distributing Unlawful Assault Weapons

    OAKLAND – California Attorney General Rob Bonta today took action to stop Orange County-based firearm manufacturer Juggernaut Tactical (Juggernaut) from selling assault weapons to consumers and distributing them to firearms dealers in the state. The Attorney General sent a cease-and-desist letter to Juggernaut warning the company that its “Featureless Series” of rifles qualify as assault weapons, and are therefore unlawful to possess, manufacture, distribute, transport, import, keep for sale, offer for sale, or display for sale under California law.

    Rule 3 -KEEP YOUR FINGER OFF THE TRIGGER UNTIL YOUR SIGHTS ARE ON THE TARGET

    Rule 4 -BE SURE OF YOUR TARGET AND WHAT IS BEYOND IT

    California’s more than three-decade-old regulation banning assault weapons became law with the passage of the Roberti-Roos Assault Weapons Control Act of 1989. The Act classified specific brands and models of semiautomatic firearms as assault weapons and banned the ownership and transfer of those firearms. In 2000, an amendment to the law took effect, adding a flexible, features-based definition of assault weapons to prevent firearm manufacturers from producing functionally identical firearms to the ones that are prohibited.

    Juggernaut is currently selling on its website a series of rifles that the company designed with the intention of skirting California’s definition of an assault weapon. It claims on its website that the weapons are lawful based on its own incorrect reading of the law. However, the California Department of Justice’s Bureau of Firearms concluded that the manufacturer’s F-9, F-10, and F-15 rifles are all in fact assault weapons under California Penal Code section 30515, subdivision (a)(1)(A).

    In the cease-and-desist letter to Juggernaut, Attorney General Bonta directed the company to immediately stop selling the assault weapons and warned that the continued sale of the firearms could be a felony punishable by up to eight years in prison.

    Attorney General Bonta requested proof of Juggernaut’s intention to comply with the cease-and-desist letter by demonstrating how it would immediately do the following:

    Stop offering for sale on its website the F-9, F-10, and F-15 rifles;
    Cancel all pending purchases of the F-9, F-10, and F-15 rifles from its website;
    Notify anyone who has completed an online purchase of an F-9, F-10, or F-15 rifle and has been delivered the rifle that they are in violation of California law; and
    Retrieve and recover all F-9, F-10, and F-15 rifles already delivered to any California firearms dealer or any other entity that would sell the rifles in California.
    A copy of the bulletin is available here, and the cease-and-desist letter is here.

              Well, we already had a thread about the legality of those and I guess now JT gets to argue the merit of their design in court.

                I posted the entire story, not a snip as it's a press release.

                I don't think normal copyright issues arise as they want the info to be distributed.

                              Just goes to show, just because it's for sale doesn't mean it's legal. Multiple warnings given.

There's no possible way that CGN members marching alongside the Pink Pistols in the SF Pride Parade can do anything to dispel the stereotype that gun owners are conservative bigots clinging to their guns and bibles. Not a single person in the crowd is rational or reachable because the parade's for gay folks and it's in SF.
