    Beating California's Tough Gun Laws

    My wife and I finally had enough so we packed up our "Stuff" and emigrated to America. We will leave others to enjoy the Utopia of California.

    Our new digs are in Nevada and it's like waking up on vacation every day.

    The local range is $2 all day and you can back your vehicle up to your shooting station. They have a pistol and rifle range with targets to 300 yards. There are some strict rules, see #3 Below:

    [IMG][/IMG]

    Now that all my toys are in Nevada do I have to deregister them in California? All my weapons purchased as a FFL-03 are registered with the CA DOJ and of course the guns I purchased through a FFL-01 were run through the DROS system.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.

    Congratulations. They wanted you to leave, too. When they are bleeding so much red, they will put on an exit tax like New Jersey has.

    We got out ahead of exit tax idea, however we are probably facing a 10% California Capital Gains tax from the sale of our house.

    Congrats! I left the "Empire" state for the great state of TX in 1975 and never looked back. That was before I had a clue, but it all worked out...

    Love the bullet holes in the sign...seeing the mountains, I know about where you settled in relation to where you were. Just enough to be clear. Yes, Cali is nice but enough would be enough. Lots of us think about it too...believe me.
    Regards, Jim

    I have to say it looks stunning were you have moved to, both the scenery and the range rules!

    Happy days...

    Thanks everyone. This area is dominated by California Expats, hard to find a native from Nevada.

    Went by the Senior center to check on Medicare options. While waiting we were looking at the BB that listed the classes offered, one that stood out was CCW, we've arrived! The lady in charge of the center that day packs as do a sizable number of folks. That's in addition to the open carry.
