1. So what if American firearm companies stop selling to kalifornia agencies? Foreign companies will step right in. Can anyone say Beretta?? Walther?? Heckler & Koch?? and how can we forget Der-GLOCK-enshpiel??? I hardly think we would have very much luck in getting those foreign companies to not sell in kalifornia just because we have a bunch of kooks running it. Besides, most of those companies are headquartered in places that are a lot more restrictive to their citizens as far as private gun ownership is concerned so what would they care?? Boycotts like this rarely work.
2. I agree that complying to ka standards will make all guns more expensive. The auto industry dropped their pants and took it a couple decades ago and now every car in the USA confirms to the kalifornia standard and cars are much more expensive because of it.
If I ran the Kimber company I would not want to do business in Kalifornia. Since gun ownership is so difficult, the market wouldn't be that big anyway so why bother? I would go where I was wanted and concentrate on those areas and if those foreign gun makers are dumb enough to incur the costs of complying with the KA rules, more power to them. I'll be perfectly content to stay profitable in the states that want me.
