However, I can find no fault with this bill (this is from someone who moved away from Cali because of their absurd gun laws). There is NO infringement, and there is ZERO cost to the taxpayer. The program would be paid for by gun manufacturers , not you and me.
Theres a LOT of people here saying this is a horrible idea but no-one is giving any reasons. I understand though. Any gun control idea is immediately thought of by most shooters as "a bad idea by a gun-grabbing commie".
That is the most stupid argument I have ever heard. I don't know of one person who would do nothing if they discovered one of their guns was stolen. You will not be held responsible because there will have been a police report that said your gun was stolen.

RealTruth, you want to know whats really retarded? The fact that some people are so uneducated about firearms that they think armor-piercing ammo, Short barrel shotguns,silencers, exploding ammo and machine guns are illegal, but still think they know enough about gun laws to call other peoples thoughts about them "retarded".

Like I said this is retarded.

You can not build your own barrel. You cant do it. It takes hundreds of thousands of dollars for the equipment needed to make pistol and rifle barrels. It's not something you can do in your basement in your free time with a hacksaw. Your not going to get "stamp" copies anymore than you get serial number copying now.(non-existent)

I had the microscopic edge of my ladies diamond laser-engraved with our names for about 30 bucks, cheap.

Bingo!!!!!! I knew exactly what this new law means, nothing more than another piece of legislation to control arms that only is going to benefit criminals and not law abiding citizens.
More and more the laws to keep citizens unarm are going around the bushes to make it more expensive and difficult to obtain a gun by lawful meanings.
Criminals will always are going to get their guns.
You are so right Realtruth I would kiss you.

Can't you just order from companies over seas like Sako or Sig? Even if it managed to pass not only in Cali, but in the rest of the U.S. as well, couldn't we just cross over to Canada, buy the firearm we want and "smuggle" it back across the border?

What a bunch of morons. Why are always getting away with taking away our rights and saying it will help. This is only going to hurt the average man, not the criminal.
