    Where is a .30 Carbine with 10 round magazine NOT legal?

    In California: 1. Mag laws are generally decoupled from gun laws. [Certain specific exceptions to this though in relation to fixed magazines etc.] Just do NOT ship in over-10-round magazines into California! An "ordinary"-looking M1 Carbine with plain stock and no flash hider is NOT a...

    Can H.O.A.s Ban Guns?

    That Marine that lost his house because the HOA payments weren't paid? His friggin' idiot wife didn't make the monthly payments. It shouldn't have even been mentioned, it was irrelevant - same thing happens with water and gas bills. That sign? In most HOAs (more likely townhouse/condo...

    will be driving to CA, can i take a handgun in car

    While the .pdf document is correct, cpilieri's other advice above has some issues. I really wish non-Californians would not post advice on CA gunlaw matters and defer to those who are "on the ground" here. This is why I don't post in MA or MD or NY or NJ forums: what I know I probably...

    Castle Doctrine in California

    Shadow_7D above is incorrect; this is the general result of listening to cops. CA's 'castle doctrine' is not case law: a reasonably implementation is codified in 198.5PC et seq. Bill Wiese San Jose

    Post-McDonald: Will the NRA take on the NFA?

    I cannot understand the clamor for charging into NFA until various other RKBA issues are addressed first so there's an "equal plane" nationwide. Let's get handguns and AW issues sorted out on a national basis first - why worry about full-autos when folks in CA can't have pistol grips on their...

    It's 2010, and it's Time to Get Rid of the 1986 Machine Gun Ban

    Clamoring for MGs when we have a ton of gun freedoms to restore in various areas of the country - when it's still hard to get a handgun in DC or NYC even after Heller - are unwise and can throw off current litigation. The only reason Heller got thru is because Anthony Kennedy was worried...

    Help-bought a gun online in CA.

    NavyLT, You are correct, though that isn't significant for this particular matter. Really, "PPT vs. regular transfer" is only an issue for non-Rostered handguns. I will confirm that CFLC does not apply for indvidual-> CA FFL shipment, only FFL-> CA FFL shipment. Bill Wiese San Jose CA

    California assault weapons owners.

    Well,that's because a lotta GB sellers are idiots with an inadvertent yet plain pro-gun-control agenda. We have plenty of national distributors shipping in non-AW black rifles to CA now, plus intermediary FFLs that will acquire firearms to transfer into CA from recalcitrant FFLs - so nobody...

    California assault weapons owners.

    Somewhat untrue/overdramatic. Those individuals had a chance to register them as AWs after Roberti-Roos promulgation. They didn't, and ended up in possession of illegal AWs. There was even a 2nd 'amensty' reg period in early 90s (92? 94? can't remember) where they could've. The...

    Is it legal to sell a stripped lower to a Cali resident?

    It's interesting there were 3 non-helpful responses from non-Californians before the correct answers appeared from folks in the know. This is why I don't write about Massachusetts or Maryland gun matters. Bill Wiese San Jose CA

    Will we ever get to have fully auto weapons?

    Nobody rational is saying FA next. Post-incorporation, we still have work to do to get rational gun rights for all across the country. We still have to take down AW laws, CA's Roster, and other arbitrary blocks to ordinary gun ownership & acquisition. We have to allow someone from State X to...

    Help: Is it Legal to ship SKS 20rnd Tapco and Monte Carlo Stock to CA?

    1. It is legal to ship the stock to CA. 2. It is not legal to ship an assembled hicap mag to CA to regular folk. 3. It is legal to separate hicap magazine into partss for the purposes of shipping replacement parts into CA or for those who wish to build legal...

    Paso Robles Police Chief / stolen handgun not registered

    There's likely some handwaving btwn spousal transfer issue contrasted with community property concept. There's enough grey area there that it might be defendable - if it's "yours" already, why do you have to repaper it (regardless of whom it's already papered to). In any case, it's more...

    Trouble in NY Microstamping

    I hope you have some bright NRA/NYSRA leg. liaisons, and not just 'jhardworking volunteers'. You need a friendly (or even publicly 'unfriendly') party to mark up that bill such that, even if it passes, it's unimplementable. The best way to do that is to ensure that proprietary or licensed...

    Overall length of SBR's (AR-15, etc.)

    We absolutely do NOT need NFA (esp MG/suppressor) cases coming up, clouding matters, until Heller is really locked down, and RKBA is fully incorporated across US. Remember, the reason why we have Heller (5-4, I remind you) is because we got Kennedy and Gura stayed away from "ultra evil guns"...

    Flying out of LAX with handgun with Southwest

    I've flown Southwest out of San Jose and Alaska/Horizon out of San Jose and SFO without problems. From what I hear Alaska & Southwest are the most gun-friendly airlines. Some tips.... 1. Make sure the gun is unloaded! (Duh, but...) 2. Rarely, the counter girl may ask to see the gun - ask...

    Nordyke vs. King: Bad decision?

    Crebralfix, You and your 'legal sources' are wrong. Nordyke indeed got us incorporation of RKBA - that is, the 2nd Am. applies at the state level as well. It was *not* dicta. The case flow hinged on making a decision on whether 2nd/RKBA rights were violated, and the 9th first had to find if...

    Truck Gun in California?

    Unless I'm way off, you're gonna have to navigate carefully around schools if you're travelling with an accessible unlocked long gun. And I believe 'school' includes private schools as well. (Unsure how 'daycare' factors in, but if it's something like Montessori, that gets murky.) You...

    California- Carry from Car to Motel Room?

    It is important to note that residency is not required by the above cite. The very fact that a person lawfully acquired a hicap magazine (and thus lawfully possessed it) within CA on or before 12/31/1999 is sufficient for that same person to reimport it into CA. Thus the following situations...
