Gov. Jerry Brown on Friday signed six gun-control bills into law, including a requirement that ammunition purchasers undergo background checks. The governor vetoed five other measures, including an expansion of the use of restraining orders to take guns from people deemed to be dangerous.
“My goal in signing these bills is to enhance public safety by tightening our existing laws in a responsible and focused manner, while protecting the rights of law-abiding gun owners,” Brown wrote in a message. Brown approved bills that would ban the sale of semiautomatic rifles equipped with bullet buttons allowing the ammunition magazines to be easily detached and replaced.
Bills the governor signed will:
— Require an ID and background check to purchase ammunition and create a new state database of ammunition owners— Ban possession of ammunition magazines that hold more than 10 bullets.
— Restrict the loaning of guns without background checks to close family members.

They keep electing stupid people and wonder why they get fucked? The Bullet Button was a Gun Control mandate for God’s sake!
Silver lining: Who else needs more proof that Gun Control Activists and Government is coming for our guns?
On other news, we should be seeing a glut of cheap magazines for sale soon.
And whomever comes up with the way to load an AR-15 with stripper clips or other device via the ejection port, is gonna make a bundle.
From what I can read out of the People’s Republic, it’s almost as if there’s a legislated California and a “real” one. It may legally be required to get an environmental impact study to replace a broken washing machine, say, but nobody actually does it. The Coastal Enclaves are full of these doctrinaire leftists that demand all this insane bullshit, but when out in the east, it just doesn’t work that way.
I wonder if there’s any chance that the insanity will be summarily ignored? Background check on Ammo? Lawsuits to follow in 3..2..1.
The state deserves to collapse.
pretty sure there will be lawsuits, costly and drawn out… but then we will have to face the 9th, always a crapshoot. Even when we win there, somehow some libtard asshat chief judge gets his balls in a wringer and demands to have a stacked court hear the case and we lose! It’s frelled up!
Mostly, those of us away from the corrosive (but unfortunately, not toxic) effects of the salt infused coastal air, will practice Irish politics and just ignore the new rules because we often have sensible sheriffs to watch the backs of the good guys.
Eventually, the state will collapse, it is inevitable… it will, in all likelihood, cause the great collapse that will implode America as we know it.
SS… misused the phrase… please substitute “Irish Democracy” for “Irish politics”
We’re right on your heals in CT with the state supreme Court and 2nd circuit bending us over, don’t slow down or we might over take ya 😉

^^ Poe’s Law?
Congratulations, Governor Moonbeam! You just created millions of new outlaws with your Malum Prohibitum Absurdum laws!
Not seeing the problem here – looks like a business opportunity for people in the bordering states.
Agree with Alan, I wish I had a shop in Tahoe right now… sigh
Reno or Carson City would be a nice base…
DPMS had a design way back in the day, for a AR pattern rifle with a 10 round magazine permanently fixed into the mag well. The rear take-down pin had a ring through it for easy removal.
The gun was supposed to be fired, the bolt hold open pushed, the upper receiver opened, and the magazine top loaded.
I’m thinking DPMS might need to bring back that design.
They keep saying that the bullet button makes magazine swaps faster. NO! It does the exact opposite. It’s sole function is to make it a pain to change magazine in compliance with the law. It follows the antis thinking when they want to ban magazines over 10 rounds just so there are more “pauses” during shooting. Well, they got their pauses that they wanted, and did that stop the gun banners?
