"This bill would, commencing July 1, 2013, and with certain
exceptions, prohibit any person from importing, making, selling,
loaning, transferring, or possessing any conversion kit, as defined,
designed solely and exclusively to convert certain
firearms with a fixed magazine into firearms with the capacity to
accept a detachable magazine and other features making the firearm an
assault weapon and would make violations subject to criminal
penalties."
After listening to the audio of the hearing and reading this again, I think Yee et al, really have no clue what he is after. I think he is out to ban the magnetic button and the bullet button and seem to think they are one and the same. I don't think he has even seen one, outside that of the local CBS SF affiliate that covered this. He calls it "magbutton", which I think many of use are assuming as the magnetic tool that are selling to bypass the bullet button. But I am now under the impression that he is referring to the mag, as in magazine button - bullet button, that allows the fixed magazine of a AR style semi-automatic rifle to release a magazine so it can be replaced with another. Maybe we can send the man one of the commerative ones in the Stop SB249 site...Last edited by XD40SUBBIE; 07-03-2012, 1:36 PM.Comment

After listening to the entire committee hearing, I can now understand why California is on the verge of financial collapse. First, the committee was completely unprofessional; starting late and making jokes about a bromance and someone's MENSA traits (or lack thereof). Second, most of the committee members don't seem to really care what is in the bill, only that it is anti-gun so it's good enough to pass. Third, it was painfully obvious that Yee and his little Brady munchkin are clearly going after the bullet button and virtually all semiautomatic rifles. The Brady munchkin was at least honest about what she wants, while Yee is either (1) too stupid to understand the issue or (2) a flat out liar. The intent seems to pass a bill that is so vague that the CA DOJ can interpret it any way they want and pass rules banning whole classes of firearms. While it made for good theater for one committee member to express the need for the DOJ to be involved, since they are the "experts", I think they are already involved behind the scenes and will not emerge from behind the curtain until the bill has been passed and signed."When you get the (men) to the range, you just get the men. But when you bring the (women) to the range, you get the (whole family). And that's what's going to save our 2nd Amendment."--Dianna Liedorff

Who says they're gonna BUY them back? They've already shown that they don't care about the Constitution. What makes you think they'll follow it and buy back legally purchased property?Comment

Is there any difference law wise between the mag magnet and other items like the Freelock mini kit that you can unscrew when your out of state? Doesn't Yee realize if someone really wanted to keep their AR-15 in an illegal state wouldn't they just install the original magazine release? I have a hard time believing someone is going to install a bullet button and then go rob a bank with their mag magnet.sigpicComment

They know what they are after, they just have no intelligent way of getting after it. But apparently, considering the intelligence of most of the committee and the supporters of this bill, it won't matter. The vagueness is written so AG/DOJ "experts" can define it for them (us)."When you get the (men) to the range, you just get the men. But when you bring the (women) to the range, you get the (whole family). And that's what's going to save our 2nd Amendment."--Dianna Liedorff

I must admit I am no legal scholar or claim to entirely understand California's Legislative procedures. However, At what point if any can the oposition in these hearings force Yee to clearly define "conversion Kit". Or since he verbaly clarified the intent as anti-Magmagnet, can the AB still be ammended to specify only the use of a Mag Magnet as the offence?
.
See arguments in opposition:
The only other way to cause a bill's author to amend any bill is attacking all of his bills. This gives he or she pause to appropriate resources to the most treasured of the bills. Much of what you see in these committees is already decided prior, as you'll often see some on the committee leave or fail to show. But they vote without the testimony later, showing that a committee hearing was a mere formality. All of these bill hustlers are trading favors and votes, so it might very well upset the whole process to give every single bill of theirs the gauntlet.Comment

Yee has been very clear in the past that he wants anything resembling an assault rifle (legal today or not) to be illegal in the future. He's said he sees no reason for people to own them and that they are a danger to public safety.
The vague language of this bill as it stands (and is open to DOJ interpretation) is dangerous. As others have said, it's a stepping stone to outright bans of entire classes of weapons.Comment

Sorry everybody about the ''the less guns the better'' part I've been cut & pasting it all over the web! Don't forget your Facebook and Google+ friends. I got people who don't even own guns to sign it.
SB 249 will next be considered by the Assembly Appropriations CommitteeLast edited by Slick209; 07-03-2012, 1:57 PM.Comment

10,000,000 x $8.99 each = $89.9 million dollars. There is no way this would survive the public media outcry to curb government waste!Last edited by darthnugget; 07-03-2012, 2:20 PM.Since we can never hope to understand why we're here, if there's even anything to understand, the individual should choose a goal and pursue it wholeheartedly, despite the certainty of death and the meaninglessness of action.
