No such luck. All of them are post ban and stamped with the Law Enforcement/Military Only verbiage. Picked a lot of them up at Quantico when I was a student at Command and Staff College.

An interesting side note Re: California. I fished a lot in the Sierra’s and usually carried a sidearm because of the dangerous fauna that often inhabited environs the best trout fishing streams. I never had a single person bat an eyelash at my drop leg holster up in those parts. Despite it being fairly conspicuous the most oft asked question was, “Any luck?”, followed by, “What fly are you tossing?” Some things are better in the more remote bits.

You do bring up a good point, though, regarding CCW. Here in South Dakota the rate is 1 in 7 are packing. Funny, don’t seem to have much gun-related crime either. Or other types of crime, for that matter. There was a rash of car thefts in Sioux Falls last year, went on for almost a week until it was announced that the cars being stolen had their keys in the ignition and the doors unlocked. Fairly self-correcting problem.

I am genuinely looking forward to moving back to San Dog here next spring, but I wonder, what to do with all my standard capacity magazines that are verboten in the Golden State?
