Not for 31 minutes though. Our old school machinist finished an 80% manually on a Bridgeport, the younger guys programmed a 4-axis. The EBRs they built all shoot fine.

Can you legally own one in your fine state?

As many as we want, though neutered with bullet buttons or other means to make the magazine removal require a "tool", and the muzzle device must be a brake and not a flash suppressor.

They're banning everything in this stupid state. I'm surprised they let us have kitchen knives.

I'm sure one of our fine politicians is working on that as we speak.
 
The old school guy has a nephew who was working at Ares Armor at Oceanside when the ATF raided a while back. Ares was doing build parties with the 80%s that ATF didn't like. Nephew escaped (California) and is here now.

So you can have an un-serialled, unregistered "assault rifle" there? That's a surprise.

Yes. For now. I retract the flash suppressor comment from my post above. It's been a while since I looked at the flowchart. Feast your eyes on this: Calguns Flowchart

That flowchart is reason enough to leave the state. Then you have cost of living, earthquakes, etc

The "assault weapon ban" was Federal, and unrelated to the stricter CA laws. I'm looking at Arizona, Nevada, and Utah currently. It's going to be a long 16 years before I can get serious about leaving.

If you have some good friends or family that live in a free state you should buy a little stuff and keep it with them. For sure buy a decent quantity of regular capacity mags while they're super cheap. The odds of legally buying 20+ round mags in 10-20 years anywhere in the US is low. If you already have some you'll probably be OK. Also grab the parts to de-neuter your AR and keep with mags.

Guns will be non existent in that state by then.


Not true....the criminals and black market will be just fine...........liberals keep letting them all out of jail.

Unfortunately we here in Arizona, and throughout the southern border have that issue to contend with as well. Hopefully Trump will get elected, and a wall will be the works.

The majority of voters are really easy to fool.
