    How Going Featureless Under New Gun Laws Will Help Avoid Personal Injuries.

    Here is an article that discusses how fixed magazine laws and registration can lead to an explosion, and serious injuries to hands and fingers and civil rights abuses.

    A very interesting article which leads to another set of intended or unintended consequence. People injured by aftermarket fixed magazine devices will be able to seek redress in the courts against the manufacturer of the fixed magazine device, driving them out of business. Then to "protect gun owners" the State of California rifle safety roster will be established.
    If you find yourself in a fair fight, you're doing it all wrong.

      Easy to see where this is headed, as the above poster mentions.

        Very difficult to read article. It seems to be all over the place with laws, malfunctions and options.
        The American Republic will endure until the day Congress discovers that it can bribe the public with the public's money.

          No, the restriction is on a pattern of rifle. There is no state law that insists anyone needs to buy or modify a rifle with a potentially unsafe fixed magazine device. That such devices exist is a response by gun owners and manufacturers who want to continue using otherwise banned rifles.

          This is the essential flaw with this sort of reasoning (which we have seen here many times before), and why it would be so easy to shoot down by any thoughtful gun control advocate: if gun owners choose to install potentially dangerous mechanisms on their rifles in an attempt to get around the law, you can't blame the Legislature for that.

          There seem to be a lot of people on Calguns these days who believe the original bullet button was some kind of legal requirement. It was nothing of the sort; it was a device that allowed the legal transfer and use of AR-15s in the wake of a court decision that suggested an "AR-15" ban was unsupportably vague.

          There is nothing inherently unsafe in the design of a Mini-14, or a Saiga, or an M14, or in any of the many other centerfire rifles with detachable magazines that do not have prohibited features that would otherwise define them as statutory "assault weapons."
