They’re not “high capacity”, they’re standard capacity. 30 rounds is the standard magazine for an AR-15.

I prefer the 20 round magazines.

What’s to stop anyone in California from going out of state and buying as many magazines as he wants, bringing them back, and if ever questioned, saying he got them during the time the law was lifted.

Can’t imagine it’s any different than NYS, anything I want I just ship to my PA. address 20 miles away and no problem.

True. Kill somebody with a single shot rifle. They’re as dead as if you did it with a m16 and you’re in heap big trouble. Bad people do bad things. I intend to be ready. Period. Don’t intend to use it, but I want it around Incase company shows up.

I read that over a million high capacity mags were sold in that one week in California.

I’ve a couple of 100 round drums, and a couple of 200 round drums. But, the majority of my mags are 50 rounds. And yes, I am in CA.

They also had Gatling guns and anyone could buy one.

“Shoot outs over tater tots, parking place, forced off a wave at Mavericks, no ketchup at the drive through. Just like anyplace that allows those weapons of destruction.”

BS, BS, and more BS.

Do you realize that according to the FBI online data banks that feet, elbows, and fists kill people way more often than all long guns combined in this country every year.

If you don’t know that then you are intentionally ignorant.

sorry if I offended you. I live in cali. way the hell north where the pot grows, the emerald triangle, and where they filmed murder mountain.

We are not into the pot or the violence but we live in the middle of it.

This is a very well armed and polite society but all of cali’s gun laws are usually ignored privately and publicly.

I’ve always felt if you knew everyone is armed it makes you safer. I go out with my wife to a show or dinner, I hope everyone is carrying. I believe there’s less likelihood of issues that way. Look at mass shootings, the azzholes pick the soft targets. I don’t chose to be one of them and hope those around me feel the same. Just my opinion.

God Bless Both Of You.

I was in Fremont for work this past week. Today was a day off, so I hiked Diablo Mountain. Good workout and very impressive sites. Awesome scenery.

Saw a lady drive her car into a ditch on the mountainside and all I could think was, it's a good thing she didn't do that on the other side of the road !!! (long way down)

The Wild Wild West also had Gatling guns, to be fair.

In fact, the Gatling gun even predates metallic cartridges; the original design used reloadable cylinders containing ball, powder and a percussion cap.

Well, you are wrong! So-called six shooters in the western movies could be fired eighteen times and you never saw anyone reloading.

Hi-cap Colt Peacemakers? Yep, they had ‘em!

Gatling guns...invented by a doctor! :-)

A wee bit difficult to conceal though....
