CA's New Microstamping Law Is A Slow-Motion Gun Ban

Californians could see the number of handguns available for sale in the state dwindle even further,

Absolutely we should bring any and all measures against 2A to the court.

Many other states sat by idly when NY and CA stripped the rights of their citizens slowly -- until it came to Virginia. Until Texas started turning purple. Until... until... until...

Fighting the anti-2Aers needs to done proactively. Not when it's "too late."

We should be fighting for laws that reinforce 2A, not restore it after the fact.

"Not only have new handgun models not been approved for sale in the state since 2012, but about half of the handguns that were on the state’s roster of approved handguns have been removed in the years since. Every time a manufacturer made a small design tweak to an existing model, California’s Department of Justice claimed it was an entirely new model subject to the microstamping provisions, and removed the handgun from the state’s roster."

Wow! I had no idea Cali was THAT bad. I'd be furious knowing that you're not allowed to buy anything new that comes out.

Sounds like a great case now that "Weekend at Ruthie's" has finally come to an end.

This is the one and only reason why Glock is still making and selling Gen 3 Glocks.

And its even worse than it seems on the surface.. a company had to submit their gun to California for them to approve it to be out on the list.

So let's take a Gen 3 Glock 19 for example, your regular no frills black G19... it gets approved (as it did in real life) but say at the same time Glock released a Gen 3 G19 but in FDE, its the exact same gun just not black... well if they wanted to sell it in California Glock would have to send them a model to test..... even though its the exact same gun....

Also... the no new handgun being approved for California since 2012 isn't true.

Franklin Armory has claimed that they got an AR15 pistol added to the list (it a bolt action AR) actually I think they have 2 or 3 models...

Also also Chiappa makes a California compliant handgun ....... aka newly added handgun post 2012

Perfect. Keep it up. Hope NY jumps on too. Keep building up the rights violations. When it gets to SCOTUS it’s not going to go like it used to. Those days are over. There will be huge rulings coming to restore us to our former glory. 6-3 conservative majority. Most of those will go by the strict original text. They might have gotten Roberts to sway before but now he cannot save them any longer. They will also vote to hear more of these cases now that they know they will have the numbers to control the outcome. They did us a favor by not hearing these cases previously. We just couldn’t see it at the time.

I hope your right but I'm not going to hold my breath while waiting

Assuming we still have 9 justices in February.

It's hard to overstate just how much is on the line this election.
