the safe act went into effect immediately but the California act let's you keep buying rifles until some deadline?

What I want to know is if the ARs that can still be bought until 12-31-16 will be able to have detachable 10 round mags since BB are outlawed after that time. SB23 from 1-1-2000 said no more registered AWs after that deadline to register was up. I would hate to buy a couple lowers that can't be configured with detachable mags.

View Quote We have till 12/31/2016 to buy BB rifles, then we have till 12/31/2017 (?) to register them. All CA laws take effect January 1 of the next year unless specifically written into the bill as a different date. Next year we can still buy: -Featureless rifles -Bullet Button Version 2 rifles -22 rifles on an AR lower By registering though we should be able to have rifles in normal configuration. Bullet Button free. But they will be registered, and we have to have our paper work for them, and follow AW transportation laws and and more BS I'm sure I'm forgetting... |

Don't do any of it. Why should WE pay $35 to have our guns registered for these stupid liberals? They can go kill themselves.

View Quote So, just to be sure, if we chose to register them, can we configure them as normal AR-15's with normal detachable mags (regular mag release), flash hiders, pistol grips, collapsible (adjustable) stocks and can we then use our pre-existing high cap mags in them? Edited to delete the high cap magazine issue from the question. |

With SB 1446 signed it basically bans all legally owned magazines with greater capacity of 10 rnds. Unless you are LEO or under the exemption, we are f'd on our legally on property. Govt confiscation is Bullsh@t!!! |

You will get different opinions on that issue. My opinion is a RAW is a RAW and you can't make a RAW more of a RAW by changing a feature. it either is or it is not. So based on that. Ill register a few and once i have the registration n proof back from DOJ they will have standard magazine releases. |

View Quote This thread is the first I've heard of a requirement/option to register a rifle as an assault weapon, hence the questions. This actually sounds like a small benefit to participation in competitive shooting - conventional reloading technique. One option for dealing with this for self defense purposes is to gang together some 10 rounders and use a standard mag release to facilitate switching. |

There's so much bs floating around. You must possess before 1 Jan 2017 and then register before 1 Jan 2018. Registration going to be online. IANAL but my view is there going to be a few options to stay legal: Register as AW install standard mag release and any and all other evil features. Give up being able for heirs to inherit in California. Dissassemble and retain as a stripped lower or retain stripped lowers that were never assembled without registering. New BB Reloaded without registering. Featureless and keep standard mag release without registering. Remove from state. |

It's time to buy and since it's only a state level panic prices haven't spiked yet.

Turning in your high caps makes about as much sense as swearing you will never break the speed limit again. The violation for both are simple infractions, the speeding ticket costs more.

With the exception of motorcycle cops most the officer no show resulting in dismissal on those infractions. Especially because they are tried in traffic court after all the traffic cases are finished. |

Went into Turner's the other day. They haven't taken the AR's down and the place was packed.
So yeah they're still buying. |

As a citizen you have very few rights in a civil procedure. Criminals have access to a trial by their peers, that's why this law was written in this fashion. Michigan cities have "code compliance officers" that comb neighborhoods looking for damaged shingles and peeling paint and they write tickets. The fine imposed is not allowed to be challenged with a jury trial. Many times they are willing to negotiate a reduced fine if you fix the issue immediately. Challenging the ticket virtually guarantees a $230.00 fine. This is a work around by the government to impose restrictions or command compliance without the headache and expense of actually prosecuting a person. Every year Governors and Mayors have national conventions where they share new ideas on how to force their citizens into "shaping up" for the good of the community. While this may allow them to force compliance on minor annoyances and reduce blight, it runs roughshod over individual liberty. |

I have questions concerning a possible sale to a CA resident.
I have been approached by numerous CA guys about purchasing a AR-10 that I have for sale in the EE. I've told them sorry but it's not a CA compliant firearm and that was the end of it. I've had a recent contact that wants me to ship the upper to his address in CA and the lower to a FFL in NV for modification into a compliant lower. The AR has a fixed stock, 18" barrel with BattleComp muzzle device, pistol grip and no bullet button. Question 1: Can I legally ship the upper with the BattleComp to him in CA? Question 2: Is it legal, It seems logical that it would be, for me to ship the lower to a FFL in NV so they can make it CA compliant and then they can make the transfer to the buyer's FFL in CA? Question 3: The sale includes 2 - 10 rd mags. Is this legal as well? I'd really like to see some serious responses to this as I'd like to sell this rifle. I also hate that you CA guys have to go through all this BS. |
