Ditto for spare ammunition.

I've been going to gun shows off and on for over 30 years with my dad and we are both laughing our butts off at the frenzied stupidity. I mean, sweet baby J....they learned nothing from 2008 either when then got fleeced.
I agree.......

2 weeks before Sandy Hook i was looking into Ar-10's but that ended that day... I'll wait, I got other semi autos with plenty of 7.62x39......

I was wanting to reach out a little further, but it can wait, and i got a bolt gun in 7.62 x 51 anyway.

But if double the money is the key thing then SELL NOW!

No law will ever stop murder, does that mean we should have no laws?

That sucks. Just one more reason I left California. Imagine the headache that causes people in the central valley or other rural parts of the state, where the closest gun store can be 50 or more miles away. Two 100+ round trips just to buy something? Stupid, idiotic California nonsense.

I can (and have) walked into a gun store here in Nevada, and walked out in under an hour with as many guns as I can afford. No Brady Tax, either. As it should be.

There is no law against murder. The current law only spells out punishment.

Same logic applies to illegal gun ownership. If you buy a gun illegally, you get punishment. Buy all you want.

The problem is not about buying but about enforce the punishment. As it stands, your precious government doesn't even enforce the current background check law.

See post #6.

Well then I also support stronger prosecution to better crack down on violators of universal background checks.
