You never said where in Kalifornia you're moving to. Its a big state after all and attitudes vary wildly depending on where you are. I lived there for 35 years until I moved here. 34 in the Los Angeles area and 1 up in the Bay area. Those two cities are vastly different in terms of attitude of the populace. LEO attitude is about the same though. Rural central California is fairly firearm friendly with many counties practically shall issue.T Bone wrote:Heartland Patriot wrote:Skiprr wrote:I spent 10 years in California.
Beautiful coastline; beautiful national/state parks.
Worst state government and laws imaginable.
My commiserations to you.
You'll pry the cold, dead finger from my gun before I ever again live in California.
I've mentioned this before, but I spent two tours in Norcal at the behest of Uncle Sam while in the USAF...those two periods of five years I spent (with a two year "break" in between ) put me in the exact frame of mind you have about it. Beautiful place...terrible laws.
On terrible laws.... I am bringing most of my firearms with me and leaving my Class 3 stuff behind in storage.... The problem with the laws in California are just crazy. I can bring my HK MR556 if I install a "Bullet Button" Mag release but my Sig Mosquito .22 with threaded barrel is illegal.
It takes skill not to be an accidental felon!
For all the stupid laws there are a lot of grandfathered "assault rifles" and over 10 round magazines. No one asks any questions at the ranges I've been to.
