Thank you so much! I'd love to check it out, but I realized it's Sunday, and I'm flying out for work, just not sure what time yet! I might be there.

Looking at the Mark 7, or the newer Genesys (not yet available but by the time I get everything setup, it should be).

Question, can you come and watch? I've never shot clays, but find it interesting, and would like to watch. So is it possible, and do you need tickets/

This is the kind of thing that I have seen a lot of going on. They get a government contract or sold off to another government and the general population doesn't get decent ammo. Thus another part of why I think I would like to deliver something to the community to make sure that it is good, quality, and try to be as competitive to the price as possible. From what I'm seeing, it sounds like there is some trepidation because of price. I can't promise to beat all prices, often that is outside of my control, especially before getting everything established.. But I can focus on quality. Not super expensive to break into the industry, I need to get the FFL first, and that isn't too hard, just a lot of paperwork, but even that is manageable. Thanks for the feedback, from everyone, not making any promises yet, there is a lot of work to be done first, but I'm working on it.

I'm considering, already started the paperwork with the government, to get my FFL and authorized to manufacture and sell ammo. The question is, do you think people are willing to buy locally made Ammo? I know price will always be an issue, but my goal is to build quality ammo and make a little profit. I have read that a lot of the big name ammo companies have been purchased by the Chinese and thus looking to start another American only Ammo company. Any thoughts?

Exactly how I feel. I never sell anything, only buy, so I never have to worry about it being used by someone illegally. But I buy, collect, and have them. But I don't trust the government and I don't want there to be a way to have it tracked.

20 years ago, in Commifornia, my oldest son was suspended for biting his sandwich into the shape of a gun. WTF? He was in 1st grade at the time, and oddly at the time we had no guns at all. BTW, he was suspended a few years later for bringing a weapon to school, Hot Sauce. I kid you not.

Vegas is a bit of a haul, especially with 10+ people.

I often shoot out at Raahague’s in Riverside. They don’t really care what you shoot as long as it isn’t obvious. Also if I was going to go, I was planning on buying a few CA compliant guns to keep here in CA.

I wanted my family to come to TN but they wanted to come to CA. Go figure. But the one thing that they really wanted to do they can’t. I’m in South Orange County. I have reached out to GOA and see what they say, maybe their lawyers can find out some work around… maybe bring it to court? The guy at the range said I could go get a CA ID, similar to the DL but just can’t drive with it. I have all the paperwork to do so, but he also said that he has heard of people that do this and buy guns in different states, have gotten flagged by the ATF. I would love to get out of CA all together, but we have multiple properties we manage here, and my son lives here, so for now, we are going to hold on to the property.

Went to the local gun shop, turns out you can’t even buy long guns in CA without being a resident. You can’t buy AMMO without being a resident! This seems to be unconstitutional. I own homes in CA and TN, but my primary residence is in TN. So why should I be forced to give up my 2nd amendment rights in CA?

They aren’t very experienced, and yes, I’ll definitely get a 22. But I’m also going to probably pick up something bigger as they like that as well the last time they were here. I do like the Henry Lever actions, those are nice. Thanks for the suggestions. BTW, can’t really easily sell them, CA laws are really stupid.

I’m stuck for the next two months in a gun unfriendly place. I have a vacation home here. My family from over seas are coming to visit for the first time in almost 10 years. Last time they were here, I had my whole gun collection here and we went shooting, they had a blast. Of course, out of everything they want to do when here, is to go shooting! No guns allowed in their country This time, everything has been moved to TN. I can’t buy a handgun since I’m no longer a resident, but I can buy long guns. The range we normally go to, due to new laws here, don’t allow rentals anymore. Thus, I’m stuck. BUT…. I can buy some long guns, maybe 2 to 4 of them. So, what is a FUN gun to shoot? (Everyone is really going to be adults, but a lot of women). I have : * Multiple AR15’s * Winchester 30/30 * Couple of shotguns * Mossy Patriot in 6.5c But none of those are here. Any suggestion on what to pick up would be greatly appreciated.

I don’t know if I would get into this business, sorry, too many things to go wrong that could be bad and kill the business fast. If you’re not holding the money and verifying that what you’re picking up is what is being transferred then you could run into other issues. I.E. if they do the sale outside of you, and you’re supposed to pick up an M1A Carbine from X and deliver to Y but X gives you a cheap rifle, they both can blame YOU. Or if you do pick up the Carbine and then Y says that it is broken, or not what was agreed too, they both blame you. If you’re dealing with the cash, same problems. X says it is $500 and Y gave you $400. Or you pick it up from X and deliver to Y but Y says they agreed to less. And of course the bad scenario, pick up the cash from X, go to Y to get the gun who then robs you because he knows you have the cash. In TN legally as long as they are TN citizens and “not prohibited” (basically asking them that) then you’re OK. No dealer transactions, that would require a FFL license and transfer paperwork to be done. While you may make a few bucks on it, not a lot because distances and cost of the drive would be a lot, you’re risking a lot.
