Residents can barely legally own guns and go shooting under CA's Draconian laws.
Yeah, that's it.
I'll have to bring that up at the next range board meeting. Or maybe tell my wife who asks how many guns I have, and I have to answer honestly: I don't know. I'd have to count them.
Funny, lots of people fled California in 1992. It was because there was a local recession and they were unemployed, not unarmed. The surf was uncrowded for a short while. Good times for those of us who surf and had a job. My guess is that most of the "sour grapes" posts come from people who had to leave, not who left so they could buy a Streetsweeper (one of the only guns that was actually banned as of 1992).
Now I may well move somewhere else, too, for various reasons of which guns are at least a fitting symbol. But if someone left in 1992, it wasn't because of some gun ban, and the current CCW trend in other states was nonexistent in 1992.
