I am apparently the owner of an assault rifle

[Leanwolf]

CLEAN97GTI " ... I think this is an uninformed employee following a misguided policy. "

I'd bet you could make book on that.

Obviously the guy was a Californian transplant (yeah, I'm making an assumption, but probably a good one)

Actually, that's a bad assumption.

The CA Governor specifically vetoed that bill.

A better assumption would have been NY as ,noted above, they have some sort of 5 round max rifle law

 

[Ivy Mike]

Wait...... A shop in NV called that an assault weapon. NV??!?!??!

I hope for your sake they are equally as ignorant about the Fender P-bass too.

The p-bass needs a fair amount of work but the basics are there. I had one guy here ask me about a selling price and a couple locals from another board ask. I may just get some cash for it and see what kind of deal they will make on the Fender.

I'm not saying it because his "policy" was more accurate there, more that he's in Nevada (adjacent) and has a distorted perception of firearms and fixation on "Assault Weapons" . Many Californians aren't aware of the rim-fire exemptions, am I right?

And no this isn't my only .22 rifle. Since every thread is worthless without pics, here is a shot of the harem.

Top to bottom(or right to left since my uploader is goofy)
Marlin Model 39 (not 39a)
Browning BL-22
Savage Stevens made Sears .22 marked as a Ranger with an ancient 4x Weaver scope. This thing is more accurate than the ruger.
The Ruger 10-22 carbine with cheapo Tasco scope.

The pawn shops here in Las Vegas are probably overstocked with guns that won't sell due to the fact they price everything at full retail price no matter what condition it is in.

Vegas? No, it's predatory pricing, common considering the customer base who regularly needs their services.

There's one born every minute.

Are they all Vegas "pawn shop bargains" ? Nice stable, but where ya gonna get your ammo, with all the .22 LR "shortage" ?

 

[danez71]

Well.... I guess the proximity of NV to CA would/could give validity to the assumption. I didn't think of that.

But... rimfires are exempt from the CA AWB "features list" (folding stocks, mag out side the grip, flash suppressors, etc). And tube fed rifles are exempt from the >10 round ban because those darn cowboy shooters said they wouldn't fight the ban as long as they exempted their guns. I only know of a couple >10 round rim fire tube fed rifle.

As far as Californians being un-aware, I'd venture to say that most everyone in CA that has an interest in guns IS aware of the rimfire rules.

And all of the anti's wish there wasn't any exemptions because they are trying to save the children from all of the mass murders caused by gangs of rimfires roaming the streets and killing the innocent children while giving a free pass to all of the safe LEO's that fired well over 100 rounds into a blue Honda Ridgline with a 50+ and 70+ year little Asian women inside because they Mistakenly thought it was a grey Nissan Titan with a large Male African American ex-cop inside during their search for Dorner.

But I digressed and didn't mean to derail the thread. In short, proximity of NV to CA worthy of the assumption but IMO 2A Californians are pretty well knowledgeable and wouldn't mistakenly classify a 10/22 as an AW (unless they were actually antis of course).

 

[justice06rr]

Did you're 10/22 have one of those scary Black Assault rifle stock kits and an illegal high-cap mag???

Those are indeed very evil. lol

 

[Blackstone]

Yep it's black (or very dark brown?), definitely an assault rifle.

I guess I should buy it since I've been looking for a 10-22 receiver.

Why not an American Fender? I always thought they sounded better.

That was a Nevada pawn shop employee who gave that advice?

I.....assault rifle.

Who knows ? Personally, I'd like to get off the musical instruments, and get back to guns !

 

[astra600]

There may not be assault rifles in Nevada, but there sure as heck are privately owned machine guns, suppressors and AOW.

 

[SilentStalker]

So, my bolt gun is an assault rifle because it uses 5-10 round AI mags? I would love for them to have told me that if I had taken one if to trade lmao. We would have had a little schooling session. This is getting ridiculous and I too am tired of hearing such assault rifle crap...its really getting on my nerves.

 

[Ivy Mike]

Yes it was. Two in fact. The lady I talked to initially and the other lady who walked over when I started asking the first girl if she knew what she was talking about.
Both of them confirmed it. If that is the policy of the privately owned business, so be it. It's just a stupid policy. I'll sell the Ruger to someone who will actually use it and buy the bass in cash.

This was the Superpawn/CashAmerica on North Durango drive just a couple blocks south of Centennial hospital.

 

[Ivy Mike]

They are all hand me downs except the Ruger. My grandfather left me the Marlin when he died. My dad gave me the Browning when he retired and moved to MO. The Savage came from my other grandfather when he moved to AZ.

 

[Ivy Mike]

I won't get into the argument about Jap Fenders being better made instruments which is why you only see Mexicans, Americans and Squiers these days.

 

[tarakian]

10/22 is not an "assault weapon" subject to registration in NY unless it has an additional "evil feature"; pistol grip, thumb hole stock, flash suppressor, collapsible stock. Mag limit is 10 rounds, not 5, unless used for hunting certain game. Though there is some debate on the 7 round (in a 10 round limit) and whether the judge's ruling throwing that particular bit of nonsense out applies to the whole state. I think Raggedy Andy his own self said that it does, but I don't believe anything he says.

 

[Wishoot]

"Assault Rifle"???

I suppose that depends on what you're assaulting.

Shame on you, squirrel assaulter ! How did you fix them, and how did they taste ?
