Sedalia Dave Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 What do you want to bet the weapon making equipment was either a jig for completing an 80% lower and/or one of Defense Distributed's Ghost Gunner boxes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sixgun Sheridan Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 Quote Neighbors were shocked when they heard of the seizure: 'I would never, ever think anybody would be wanting to pack so much in this neighborhood. It scares the wits out of you,' Rabbi Chaim Mentz told ABC. 'What does my next door neighbor have? What does your next door neighbor have?' Pretty much sums up the anti-gun mentality. Not saying laws weren't broken here, but someday we're going to see laws passed limiting how many guns and how much ammunition we're allowed to own., because owning "too many" scares a lot of people. .

Pat Riot Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 The writer makes this sound like having the guns is illegal. The actual reason for the raid isn’t known until nearly the end of the article.

Hardpan Curmudgeon SASS #8967 Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 Two years ago, in Central California: California Department of Justice agents seized over 500 guns from Clovis family; Court ordered them returned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the article: “The arrest of Sheakalee and the gun seizure were highly publicized by the DOJ in a 2015 news release that received widespread media coverage.” Interesting that the only coverage of this story is by the Fresno Bee, Breitbart, and a couple of pro gun news sites. The Fresno Bee is NOT pro gun. https://www.breitbart.com/2nd-amendment/2017/04/05/clovis-family-wins-lawsuit-ca-doj-forced-return-500-guns/amp/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Falcon, SASS # 46139 Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 I despise those that go into another man's house and steal his guns. It's nobody's business how many guns or how much ammunition a man has. I don't go rummaging through anybody's house and I don't expect anyone to rummage through mine. It won't end well.

Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 Most of those would not be illegal anywhere but in California. Have I mentioned how glad I am we finally got out of that state? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was involved in the gun business for about 30 of the 40 years lived there, and I am still amazed at the things that the state will consider illegal even when we had their documents to prove it to be legal. They just don't care and no one has the guts to fight them because of all the other ways they can get to you. Sorry, but like the old umpire said, "I calls 'em way I sees 'em."

Yep, I calls em like I sees em too and there aren’t that many illegal guns there. What’s got people’s pink ones in a knot is they had so many, the horror. Most every gun I’ve perused in the pictures are legal in California, that’s how I sees it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
