| I know that this is a NO NO in California but i just had to ask, is it possible to have a SOUND SUPPRESSOR on your AR15? How about if it's a registered one? |
|
Pretty must outside of being a peace officer/government agent or working in hollywood on a movie (both of which get granted in INSANELY rare cases) no one can have one in California. Let me put it this way, in the big burro shoots I have been to there have been countless ARs, FALs, MP5s, etc with out even a second glance. Someone pulled out a rifle with a fake suppressor on it (it was a barrel extension on a Krinkerplinker of all things) and someone came over to tell us that it was against the law and we had to leave. Even after explaining and demonstrating that it was a fake, he still walked away uneasy. Pretty much if you have a suppressor, get ready to either be arrested or have questions asked. They are simply a no-no, just as bad as full auto, maybe worse. |
You'd vote for someone who wants you to register your guns, turn them into the police, or cut them up into small pieces?

Is that before or after he calls everyone idiots and blows a fuse? |
You'd vote for someone who wants you to register your guns, turn them into the police, or cut them up into small pieces? Whoever said I really want you to reg your guns, turn them into the cops or cut them up? I just said that the latter two are your only legal options if you screwed up and didn't reg. And that those that didn't do it at the right time are idiots (unless they're gonna fight their personal Rambo revolution all at once - but these are usu the ones whining, "Why did they bust me???") And if we manage to reg some new OLL-based AR/AKs s in CA at least we have 40+K new AWs in CA. But that battle was lost a long time ago (reging AWs) - so all we can at least is to try to crowbar the system a bit. Gunowners flopped in not passing RKBA. No, if I were dreaming about being governor... - 16 year olds could buy AR and MP5 parts at Home Depot. - state income tax cut in half; - no children of gov't employees can become gov't employees (i.e., cut the cycle of welfare dependence) - 30% of state employees cut, 10%/year, attrition will do some work - all CA city + stete employee pensions converted to 401K defined contribution like the rest of us have (for those under 50); - state employees' health insurance will have higher deductibles; - abolish DOJ Firearms Division (!!) and Narcotics Div (let the DEA do it, why duplicate?) - fix workers' comp rates and crap lawsuits etc. - police/fire retirement age raised, disability benefits issuance deeply investigated; - redistrict via computer-drawn districts based simply on regional population density; - abolish DMV as useless: clearly drivers' license issuance has no relation to driving skill or validating legal residency; - no benefits for illegal aliens; - any gov't employees asssisting illegal aliens get charged w/'aiding & abetting', etc. - this includes doctors and schoolteachers; Bill Wiese San Jose, CA |
As recently as this week:
From the same thread:
And his opinion of another poster who told someone they should NOT give up their firearm. Hmm, weren't the first shots of the Revolution fired at at Lexington and Concord because the British were going there to CONFISCATE the colonists guns? Some of them DIED to save the firearms:
From March. A statement where he says he hopes they list the OLLs - which he knows would lead to registration:
On the other hand, these guys get it:
Just so you know Bill. I'm just making fun of you. No hard feelings.

I guess you never figured out that he was talking about those knuckleheads who are felons by posessing certain illegal items. If for whatever reason you have one, and you don't want to be another felony statistic if caught with it, you better get rid of it. You can spout all your philosophical reasons why you don't like the laws, but that's the law the way it is now. And unless you want to join Mahatma Ghandhi, Henry David Thoreau and others of that ilk in taking the consequences of civil disobedience, you better get rid of it, and his suggested methods are just about the only things available to you. Of course if you did have that figured out and just felt compelled to not mention it you probably have a great career waiting for you at the LA Times as a "News" writer. |
I might have to give you a write in vote |
Well, I GUESS you missed that last line, eh Pa? 
Of course I know what he's been trying to say. The statements were quoted out of context deliberately. If they hadn't been, how could I yank his chain
