I am now compelled to remind all folks here that the inevitable gun/ammo discussion path is happening...I've already had to edit this thread once. Please don't make me lock it.
Don't jump on my case about this, and don't call me a "gun banner" - I'm life member of the NRA and ACLU. I'll defend your right to free speech with my guns, if needed. Just not here.
That out of the way....
1. It's not a BAN - so don't call it that. It's a severe restriction, but it's not a ban.
2. Laws can change. Typing about a law you don't like in this forum is entertainment. If you actually want to change the laws, you have to take the time and expend the energy to participate in the ugly mess that is, was and always will be politics. Writing letters, making phone calls, all of that stuff.
3. In a representative democracy, nobody gets all of what they want from the political process, but everybody at least gets some. The alternative is where some get all of what they want and the rest get none.
SO....
Assuming you're in CA, and assuming you have/want a handgun, getting ammo legally is going to be an issue from now on.
Stop [censored] about it.
First of all - to the members in CA -
a. What have you heard about how legal handgun ammo purchasing will be handled? Do you have more, accurate information?
b. Assuming that these restrictions stay in place, has anyone discussed how the role of the FFL dealer affects purchasing?
c. Are clubs and other organizations subject to this law?
Let's get some facts, and assuming that the law is in place, let's get some discussion on how/why this affects your personal preparedness.
If you want to talk about the politics of this law, by all means, do so. Elsewhere. Here, we discuss logistics and planning only.
