Really, I stopped by Discount Gun Mart to pick up some targets.  Sitting in the display case was a compact 9mm based on the 1911 frame - ParaUSA Para Carry 9.  The compact pistol caught my eye as filling a niche that I was looking for.  While I didn’t walk out with the semi-auto, I did place a down payment and filled out the necessary background check paperwork. After the 10-day California waiting period, I had the Para Carry 9 in my possession.  First things first was a good cleaning.  Then, it was finding the opportunity for some shooting time.  That is where life became interesting.

The California Assembly recently passed a ban on traditional ammunition containing lead that may result in a complete ban on all hunting ammunition.

Assembly Bill 711, which would outlaw the use of lead for hunting in California, passed the State Assembly on May 22^nd by a vote of 44-21.  In a twist that presents a threat to all hunting, passage of AB 771 by the California Senate could stop all hunting with rifles as the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) may consider alternative rifle ammunition as “cop killer bullets” triggering a ban on those as well.

Your state Legislators MUST hear your OPPOSITION to these anti-gun bills.

This week has been hard for law-abiding gun owners in California.  Several egregious anti-gun bills have passed their legislative chamber of origin.

The fight to stop these bills is not over yet.

Please continue to call AND e-mail your state legislators urging them to OPPOSE the anti-gun legislation below that will do nothing to reduce violent crime in California or prevent criminal access to or misuse of firearms.  Contact information for your state legislators can be found here.

Also, don’t forget to forward this alert to your family, friends and fellow gun owners in California, because this fight is going to take everyone’s help across California if the Second Amendment is going to survive!
