    How long will it take the fruit loops in Californification to ban guns that shoot cartridges .416 or larger like they did with .50 BMG?
    When CA banned the .50 back in 2005, Ronnie Barrett wrote one CA chief of police in regards a department rifle sent to him for repair with this message: “Barrett cannot legally sell any of its products to lawbreakers. Therefore, since California’s passing of AB50 (ban on 50 cal.), the state is not in compliance with the US Constitution’s 2nd and 14th Amendments, and we will not sell nor service any of our products to any government agency of the State of California.”
