one of the reasons I am glad to leave this state. In July of 2018 I would be required to register this. we also have a background check every time I buy ammo for anything. Firearms cannot be inherited. the list goes on.

I picked this up a while back. What a hassle but I had always wanted one. It was Commiefornia legal at the time and I have all the paperwork. They could be making it illegal anytime and I don't know if they'll come for it. When my wife retires she wants to move away from here also. Maybe we'll be neighbors!

I have always been a fan of the M1. and when Springfield started building them again It put a smile on my face very nice Edwin.

I am looking at a Springfield XDm pistol for some local IDPA and USPSA match shooting after we move.

Your wife is a smart woman. I can't see an end to California's craziness.
I think taxes will go much much higher.

You turn it in to the cops. and supposedly it gets destroyed.
The Kalifornia government wants disarmament.
It will get much worse when Gavin Newsom is s-elected governor. He has a personal vendetta against all firearms.

I can tell you how some of the weapons gets destroyed. Back in 2009-2011 I was working in the brand new CHP facility on Richards Blvd. and 7th st, downtown Sacramento. It was a 7 mil. HVAC project, which consisted of three remodels of abandoned cannery building, with an addition of a new, fourth building. The fourth building would be a 3 story with a helicopter pad on top. It was built stout, to be able to land a blackhawk copter should the need arise. It was also the "eye" of the CHP, with an LED screen about 40' long by 12' tall. With that, they could see all the happenings around Sacramento and other close areas. Pretty impressive data center.
Anyway, all the rebar required for this fourth building came from confiscated firearms, which were melted and turned into rebar at a facility in Utah.
I remember hearing all the fuss from the project managers and CHP higher ups, about 4 semis loaded full of firearms driving to Utah, accompanied by a bunch of CHP officers. The fuss was that there was flack about the CHP being out of their jurisdiction in Utah, and if the Utah highway patrol would try and get involved. It had to be a non stop caravan, for obvious reasons.

My parents turned in my grandfathers WWII pistons, and his old 12ga shotgun and .22 rifle to the police in one of their programs. Never asked my brother or I if we were interested in them....
