Quoted: SB23 went into effect in 2000. If you had an AR or AK type rifle you were suppossed to fill out a card with $25 to DOJ.
From what I have heard compliance was 10% and no one has ever been charged with a violation.
There are more ARs, AK's and guns in Cali than any other state I am willing to bet.

A couple of guys north of LA had their pickup truck break down, and when the towtruck driver saw their rifles, he called the cops. The guys were arrested. Concealed, loaded handguns and banned rifles. Transporting or transferring banned rifles is a felony.

But were they CONVICTED?

The story I saw was linked from this site several months ago. I suspect they haven't gone to trial.
