We have 8 states ran by the authoritarians that ban private ownership of silencers. Just think what's going to happen when (not if) the big court strikes down those laws. Now there's 2 cases in Illinois. Morris v Raul And Anderson v Raul If just the Illinois ban is struck down they will buy...

California law as I understand allowed the grandfathering-in of previously-possessed "assault rifles". CA has banned "assault rifle" sales, with some CA cities having their own statutes. Given this situation, to what degree are these laws being enforced? Anybody up on this topic? Me, I've not...

I wasn't aware of California banning what their state government defines as "sniper scopes". Just was reading this. I would like to learn more. Is this law still standing? Looks like the law bans infrared scopes. Says nothing about starlight scopes...

Hi, I'm new to this forum. I'm looking for a semi-automatic 9mm pistol. My maximum budget is 500 dollars but I want to spend 400 or less. I haven't really looked at guns over 400. The best I can find that are legal in California are the Ruger Security 9, SAR B6C, and Beretta APX. The Smith &...

Curious about whether all guns have to be registered with the state in 2022. Is it OK if they're just registered with the feds? Also, how do you register one that was gifted or bought off a relative or something? I have a buddy that has some he's trying to sell. How do you register guns, and...

CA requires ammo to be shipped to an FFL. Can someone with a CA COE and a C&R FFL (type 03) take possession of ammunition directly via an online sale -or- must that transaction occur at another FFL? I called the CA Bureau of Firearms. Their answer was that it had to ship to an FFL. I pointed...

Just received this email from SAF, California settled after two years of litigation. :)

They actually had a members-only day around March 1st, after a year or two of being closed for most rifle and pistol shooting. I think the only work remaining was some cyclone fencing around the property line. They won't open to the public until after the state and local "shelter in place"...

So I've lived in California all of my life (your condolences are appreciated) and I own legal, registered firearms. Luckily I'm in a Pro 2A county. My best friend lives in Alabama and though I hope to be alive another 50 years +, I need to be smart about this and make certain that if I depart...

I tried to get to them through google but failed. Just general newspaper articles that cover mostly red flag law changes. Best with links to the gun laws text. A Czech gun owner interested in knowing how much more restrictive laws are in Cali than here. Thanks in advance.

Hi all - I'm moving to California (reluctantly). Am I correct in understanding that no new handgun models have been available there since they passed a law requiring special forensic markings on the ammo? I was thinking about an H&K VP9 or a Gen 5 Glock 19 (not sure if Gen 5 counts as a new...

Among the gun control provisions passed last year that went into effect at the beginning of this year was a restriction on the sale of ammunition. This is plainly a means for CA to control (and restrict) ammunition sales in the state...

i haven’t seen this posted in many places so i wanted to see what y’all Californians think Little background Basically the maglatch device installs with the firearm disassembled and makes it so your AK Maglatch COMPATIBLE magazines cannot be removed without removing the action of your Ak47. But...

Hello, all. Has anyone found a lead-free .44 Magnum ammunition that will achieve pig-worthy accuracy and reliability in a lever gun, such as the Marlin 1894? I think the main concern is that copper bullets are less dense and therefore longer than lead bullets, so they might not feed reliably in...

It's more than likely that this has been gone over before, but due to recent laws going into effect perhaps the civil preparedness argument is more viable now. Using California as an example; if a state is going to pass laws to cripple the effectiveness (and industry) of certain types of guns it...

. California laws often cite exemptions for loaning guns to immediate family members. Does anyone have insight regarding a roommate or unregistered partner? Assumption the roommate or partner is not prohibited by law to own a firearm. . I own registered handguns in the state and as a...

I have an online friend who is dealing with the consequences of a California 5150 order. I would presume possession of firearms and ammunition are prohibited to persons under the standard 5150 restrictions - no supplemental orders. What about possession of pre-existing already owned...

I thought it prudent to keep a public list of items that prove that not all is lost in California with respect to firearms owners' rights. While CA is definitely not as free as was prior to the 1989 Stockton School Shooting and the avalanche of politically-driven efforts to control guns that has...

Four Gun dealers sue over California law barring window displays At issue is a gun 'display law' and the First Amendment. It is illegal to show handguns or pictures of handguns from the outside . The law isn't new either, it dates back to 1923. However controversial goods and services...

Hi, I need to find a reference to a situation I was sure happened but now can't document. Did not one of the gun control states (NY, CA, MD, CT, etc) have "assault rifle" registration in place based on number of cosmetic features, and then decrease the number of legal features, suddenly...
