Isn't this meaningless? Hundreds of thousands of semi-auto long rifles already exist in California. Millions more exist just a state line or two away. Which manufacturers do you sue, since these thing will literally last forever given proper care?
Maybe I'm just jaded now. Sigh....
A major focus is the ghost gun phenomenon. Ghost guns are the sort of thing that will disenfranchise mild/mannered gun owners like me. They’re a constructionist finger hoisted at every sort of firearms regulation. The military term for such a state is “destabilizing”.
If i had my way, ghost guns and no-FFL gun shows would end. In return, it would be nice to see Federal pushback against the most severely restrictive states, establishing some sort of common framework for, say, shall-issue permits for concealed carry, and open carry away from cities and some Federal sites.
And the NRA has devolved from “the gun owners’ union” into a MAGA PAC, cheering on the disassembly of civil gun rights and privileges. The best way to undercut the NRA is to undercut its most secure market: sales to police. The police weapons exemption is a blight upon our laws. Treat them as what they are:
civilians. Subject them to the exact same gun laws as John and Jane Doe.
