Please hear me out on this.
-Hearing Protection Act gets passed. Within the act is language that states/counties/cities cannot infringe.
-California obliges but takes it a step further by requiring all firearms that are discharged must now have suppressors for the health of it's people and the reduction of sound pollution. They could argue that they are not infringing on the right of people owning firearms, just utilizing them.

Is this not another way to place a financial burden on gun owners to own a firearm?

Any online wannabe lawyers care to clue me in on what I may be missing here?

Pretty sure the repeal of obamacare (assuming it happens) would solidify the outlawing of the govt requiring the purchase of product from private companies.
Even assuming it didn't and they (CA) did, I'm pretty sure it would get shot down by the appeals or supreme court. I'm definitely no expert, but that's how I would see things playing out

Personally I would take the federal preemption part out of the HPA. It sets precedence for a less gun friendly govt in the future.

It also opens the door for a state to take it to SCOTUS and have it overthrown.

I could honestly give 2 fucks about California.  They've been written off for a long time. Best thing that could happen is that they succeed, the US invades and makes it America again.  

I am not a fan of preemption on the federal level for multiple reasons.
