keeping their AR-15 rifles Hollie McKay By Hollie McKay Published August 23, 2017 Fox News A California 'featureless' rifle with fixed stock, no pistol grip, muzzle brake, maximum 10-round capacity magazines.

A California 'featureless' rifle with fixed stock, no pistol grip, muzzle brake, maximum 10-round capacity magazines. It has a regular magazine catch. NRA/CMP competition rules were modified in 2017 to accommodate rifles like these from restrictive law states. It seems California lawmakers’ efforts to force rifle owners to register their personal details, or resort to cumbersome reloading or giving up their arms altogether, may have missed the mark.
Although months behind schedule, the State of California’s Department of Justice (DOJ) this week opened up its online registration for gun owners to enroll their bullet-button toting AR-15 rifles – now deemed to be “assault weapons” – in line with a controversial set of sweeping gun control laws signed into state law last year.
But gunmakers and owners say they already have come up with creative workarounds to be legally compliant but avoid giving the government even more personal information.
“The registration is seen by many as a trap to purge the owner since they ask for very specific information about acquisition of the original rifle that most owners don’t have or remember,” Steven Lieberman, a California-based attorney and founder of firearms training company Artemis Defense, told Fox News. “As a result, the ‘guesstimate’ as most would, they are potentially committing perjury.”

CA restrictions on the 2nd Amendment are Civil Rights violations.
Where is the Justice Department?
“Californians will undoubtably comply with this new blatantly illegal BULLSH*T “law” just about as well as their east coast friends have complied there, at about a 2 or 3 percent level only”
Sooo, when Kalifornia secedes, presumably kicks out the US military, confiscates private guns, they’re going to be in a fine pickle, lol! Can’t wait...
“’featureless’ rifle with fixed stock, no pistol grip, muzzle brake, maximum 10-round capacity magazines. It has a regular magazine catch”
Geez, wouldn’t it just be easier to move to a new state?
“I have a “featureless” AR with a Thordsen stock and I shoot better with it than with a standard AR Pistol Grip and Collapsable Stock.”
I have a Ruger Mini-14 Ranch with bull barrel (original barrel sucks) that is another option. Shoots great and with the bull holds a tight pattern. Magazines can be bought in 5, 10, 20, 40 round capacity. Can squeeze off rounds as fast as a AR-15.
“Geez, wouldn’t it just be easier to move to a new state?”
Ummm, Texas is full. Might give out passes to allow Kali refugees to drive through to Arkansas though....
What about reloading? Do you show ID for black powder? sheesh
My Dragoon still gets Fed properly.
If you price in the cost of moving, this may be cheaper.
(Not to say that if offered a job in a lower cost of living, lower tax red state/2A state it shouldn't be a consideration.)
Ah yes, “registration”, the step just prior to CONFISCATION.
California leaving USA is a wet dream of most other Americans yes. But chances of that happening seem very remote. Imho I think it’s extremely difficult for a state to leave USA. Been there, tried that before. USA will most likely keep all 57 states for a long long time.
.just drive 45 minutes to RI and buy ammo
Remember...this is Wal*Mart. Buy a T-shirt while you’re there. Legal Shmegal. It reminds me of driving to PA to get the good fireworks and lighting them off with the Police Chief on the 4th.
“Just do what we do here in CT, where you have to show your CC permit to buy ammo...just drive 45 minutes to RI and buy ammo at the Wal*Mart just over the line.”
Stores and gun shows in Reno do brisk business in ammo. Last show I was in line to buy a case behind a guy with a hand truck getting STACKS of cases. Either he was a father of several diverse teen daughters... who liked to wear gold chains (white guy). Or he was a pimp with some hoe’s in tow.
understood and agreed.
i was only thinking about the legal difficulties of secession, at least since the result of the 1860’s
in Californication’s case, though, not only do many Cali political hacks want secession.....but so much of the rest of the country would sing Halleleujah of Cali did secede...
that politically it would be perceived as a WIN-WIN by many
“i was only thinking about the legal difficulties of secession”.
Yup, you’re right. Those pro secessionists who say “well, economically, we would be the 5th largest country in the world if a separate country” are assuming everything would remain the same after secession. The fact is not much of anything would remain the same. And, most change would affect the new country of California negatively. It’s not even a given that the northern half of California would agree to secession. It might decide to break off and remain a state. One thing for sure, all bets would be off once the game is started....
