Spurred by outrage over recent mass shootings, California lawmakers on Thursday sent Gov. Jerry Brown a sweeping package of gun control bills, including a ban on the sale of semi-automatic rifles with detachable magazines, background checks for those buying ammunition and new restrictions on homemade firearms.
The flood of bills was introduced in response to the December terrorist attack in San Bernardino that killed 14 people at a holiday party, but momentum for action swelled after the June 12 mass shooting at an Orlando, Fla., nightclub that killed 49 people.
“The killer sprayed that nightclub with bullets,” Senate President Pro Tem Kevin de León (D-Los Angeles) said during the floor debate Thursday. “How could someone filled with so much hate have such easy access to ammunition?”
The bills sent to the governor include:
Ammunition sales: Requires an ID and background check to purchase ammunition and creates a new state database of ammunition owners
Large ammunition clips: Bans possession of ammunition magazines that hold more than 10 bullets.
Bullet buttons: Two proposals would strengthen California’s assault weapon law by outlawing a small buttonhole used for quickly swapping out ammunition magazines
Limit on gun loans: A new restriction on loaning guns without background checks.
Stolen gun reporting: Stolen or lost guns would have to reported within five days.
False gun reporting: A new punishment for falsely reporting guns as stolen
Ghost guns: Homemade “ghost guns” would need to be registered and there would be new limits on selling them
Long gun limits: Only one rifle or shotgun could be purchased per month
Gun research: Urges Congress to lift the prohibition against publicly funded scientific research on the causes of gun violence and its effects on public health
Gun restraining orders: Bans a person subject to a “gun violence restraining order” from having any firearms or ammunition while the order is in effect
Gun theft: Clarifies that theft of a firearm is grand theft and is punishable as a felony

It is now up to Gov. Brown to stop the goose stepping Progressive Legislature from applying an even greater stranglehold on the citizens of California. There is only a slight hope that will happen.
As an example of the malfeasance that is the hallmark of their reign, two of the measures, AB 450 and AB 466, resulted from "gut and amend" strategies that seek to hide their actions from the public.
To explain, in a gut and amend offensive, an unrelated bill that has passed out of committee is selected, and it's entire contents erased, with the controversial contents of a bill the people have rejected inserted. This way, the public can be caught unaware, and the Progressives can move forward unopposed. It's the same method they used to become the first government in the world to regulate CO2.
So what happens to everyone that already owns larger magazines and push button releases etc, are they supposed to turn them all in? Will they be compensated? Isn't this confiscation?

It remains to be seen what the ramifications are in total.

My guess is one of them will be an NRA-sponsored lawsuit.
The ammunition registry might be a problem.
I'm sure terrorists, gangs and general criminals will obey these laws to the letter!
the main purpose of this idiocy is to drive lots of GOP voters out of California, assuring the scumbag Democrats will have almost guaranteed election wins for the next 50 years. Its idiotic and these are nothing more than gun owner harassment bills. There is a reason why California lost the Olympic shooting trials 25 years ago
we gun owners have to stop discussing those idiotic bans in terms of the facade of crime control. The low wattage garment soiling hysteric won't spend any time really examining the issues-it will choose "public safety" all the time. So we have to tell people what these laws are about-punishing people who don't vote democrat
So what happens to everyone that already owns larger magazines and push button releases etc, are they supposed to turn them all in? Will they be compensated? Isn't this confiscation?

It is illegal to posses large magazines..............so yall better get rid of them.......
I would not be surprised if local law enforcement would have a program for turning in such items.......
I doubt one will be compensated.......
Call it what you will.....but it is legal........
GOP voters should leave California. Stop supporting a failed state, move elsewhere and watch from the sidelines as it continues to disintegrate.
