More stupid ideas from the left coast. Are they so stupid as to not know online sales must go to an FFL???? The igornance of these people is amazing. Too bad they can't just float away. You think they have any idea just how worthless they really are.??

OUCH! Remember that the they you are referring to may be gun owners
who don't want any of these new laws to pass.
Sacramento is on a rampage against guns,ammo and gun owners.
We know who the problem party is, we just seem to have no power to stop them.

I think JR was referring to those who support these types of bills or those who sit on the sidelines and do not actively oppose it.
I'm sure he was not referring to gun owners who are NRA members/those who actively oppose new anti-gun bills.

This new round is scary even by Cali standards:
-- classify ALL semi auto centerfire rifles with detachable magazine as "assault weapons", which means no more rifles above 22 with detachable mags sold in Cali, period. Bill also requires registration of all existing such weapons with the state.
It was written to be a registry of all firearms and owners but was changed and I don't think a separate bill is out there for the complete registry, but I'm not 100%.
-- Ban of any magazine over 10 rounds, no grandfathering so all existing mags over 10 rounds to be confiscated. Also changes definitions so all the mags that were crimped to only allow 10 rounds but are long enough for more are also now "high capacity". if it could even theoretically hold more than 10 rounds, it's toast.
Your options to get rid of the mags are to: take them out of state, sell to a FFL, destroy it, surrender it to the state.
-- licensing of all ammo sellers, background checks of all ammo purchases
-- construct database to track all ammo purchases
The best part is all of these things are directed at guns that are the least dangerous of all the possible categories out there. I bet more people in Cali are killed every year by derringers than all semi auto rifles combined by a multiple.

These are not "new" proposals, they have been floating around this legislative year. Since the Cal. legislature is controlled by democrats with a 2/3 majority in both houses some of this **** is likely to pass. I think the ones that make currently legally possessed weapons and magazines illegal are unlikely to pass and if they do they are very likely to be overturned in court. Never the less the liberal / socialist wing of California will keep going at our rights, one slice at a time, until we get the political will to throw the bums out.

It must be exciting for California shooters and shooting competitors living in these days of rapid and extensive firearms related change is State laws.
Looks like the CA Assembly passed many of the new gun bills today, including banning all semi automatic rifles that accept detachable magazines.
Now up to the governor to sign into law.
California lawmakers pass expanded semi-automatic weapons ban

Well, I for one have written Governor Moon Beam respectfully requesting he veto any and all gun control legislation that crosses his desk. Hopefully many more of the millions of legal gun owner in CA are doing the same. I am stuck in the state until such time as I get a transfer out or I retire and pull up stakes, until then I have to keep trying to fight the millions of idiots who populate a couple relatively small areas of this state and screw everything up for the rest of the normal folks.

California Assembly could do more productive things,
say FIGURE OUT HOW TO GET THE STATES BUTT OUT OF DEBT.

NY already passed a similar Bill, but it's being challenged by at least 4 lawsuits.The NRA, NYSRPA, and GOA are involved in a few of them. From what I'm hearing the state has been trying to dial back some of the provisions, but the lawyers are going full steam ahead, no compromise no surrender.
There's even a strong new challenge to the century old Sullivan law which made NYS a "may issue" state.
