While Cullerton and Madigan are measuring their d!cks to see
which carry bill they're going to screw us w/, The CA Senate is trying to ram
ammunition registration/fees, semi-auto bans and mag bans up the dark holes of Californistan subjects.
Ammunition purchasers would submit their information and a $50 fee to
the state Department of Justice which would maintain a list of qualified
buyers that would be checked by ammo stores. Purchasers would have to
show their driver's license or other ID at the time they buy bullets....
The Senate also approved a bill that would outlaw the sale, purchase
and manufacture in California of semiautomatic rifles that can accept
detachable magazines. SB 374 also would require those who own such
weapons to register them with the state.
Other measures approved by the Senate would ban the possession of
ammunition magazines capable of holding more than 10 bullets, and
regulate mechanisms, called “bullet buttons,” that allow the quick
replacement of ammunition magazines on semiautomatic rifles.
And THAT my friends, is why membership in the
ISRA and
NRA is so important. CA doesn't have a Todd Vandermyde.

As cruel as it sounds, I hope all those laws and even more restrictive get passed. The nastier they are, the faster they will get taken to SCOTUS for disassemble.
The problem with California is that the Nanny State keeps getting elected and most people do not give two craps.
Seems like the 2nd Amendment equivalent of taxing newsprint.
Sounds like a business opportunity to me. I wonder how much ammo I can load into the car?
No Todd Vandermyde, but they do have a Chuck Michel! http://michellawyers.com/

Better yet, they have Gene Hoffman of CalGuns. He and they are the masters of political guerrilla warfare in Kalifornia.
The Calguns' Peruta case in front of the 9th will likely not only clean up California's spotty may-issue but will crack open Hawai'i's "may issue in name only" permitting system. IL had no carry available law, HI has never issued a permit as I understand it. A good ruling in Peruta takes the population centers of California out of the "anti" camp by default and leaves the "may-issues" isolated in the East as the outliers they are.
A favorable ruling on Peruta will buttress the fight in IL by providing a Circuit ruling in support of Posner's, as currently it stands alone among the Cicuits as enshrining "bear" as a meaningful part of the right.
