Sorry, didn't want to say anything about a state I haven't been to yet. But since you're saying it, it's okay

This also goes for AR style rifles as well.

"evil features" are: pistol grip, collapsible stock, fore grip, et al.

Please refer to the link below for questions on owning assault rifles and hand guns in California.

Legal to sell and legal to own are two different things.

"please do not construe what I have told you as legal advice, I am not a lawyer"

10 round magazine. Yeah, that's a lot safer That is still ten huge rounds heading towards you from a distance

BTW, the "evil features" part makes me laugh every time I read about it

You aren't missing anything except the Pacific. Too many people are too up tight about too much stuff. Seeing what other states have access to and seeing what we're limited to is really frustrating.

California is an odd place. The center-east is pretty normal, but everything is controlled by the 5-10 western-most miles of California due to population. I swear that 5 mile strip has absolutely -0- clue what is going on in the rest of the world. If you ask them, they think everyone is running around in General Lee type cars with no catalytic converters shooting out the windows while drinking natty-lite.

When they head inland it's like they're expecting an Amish Day festival to occur before their eyes while they drink red wine and sample local cheese. It FEELS so condescending on weekends around these parts.

I will admit your area is one of the few places I like about this State, lol.

And really, the Pacific by Cali is ALWAYS cold thanks to that lovely current going by. Now, you go to Okinawa or Hawaii, THAT is some beautiful ocean there!

My mom is Okinawan. I visited there about 20 years ago and you're totally right

Awesome I was stationed there for a couple years, loved it! Definitely some of the most beautiful beaches I've ever seen!

Well - thanks for your service

That's how my dad met my mom, lol. He was a radar operator and she worked in the kitchen.

I remember those beautiful blue waters. I never did go swimming though. My dad says he loved scubba diving there.

Can't own a gun there though, to my understanding; I guess it could be worse for me as a Californian, lol.

We can hunt on sundays here. i am surprised that's a law.

Yea, It is pretty ridiculous. Every time I hear or have to say the phrase "evil features" i just have to and

Like 10 rounds is any less dangerous than 30 rounds. But I guess it's better than 0 rounds right? lol.

My girlfriend's boss bought himself a Barret M107 for x-mas last year. Damn, what a bada$$ gun. I have come to find out he has over 200 guns. I don't have own any myself.

Please tell me "evil features" isn't actual legal language out there.

How the hell is an inanimate object evil? Somehow, I have apparently allowed a room full of evil into my own home. How could I have let my guard down?! HOW!!!!!
