In name only


iconGovernor Arnold Schwarzenegger, who made his fortune shooting up the Hollywood big screen, signed a bill into law that bans the sale of .50-caliber rifles.

The California measure adds .50-caliber BMG rifles to the state's list of so-called assault weapons and bans the sale of .50 BMG ammunition. Those who already own the rifles would be required to register with the state.
So if you live in California and own a .50 caliber rifle, you can no longer buy ammo for it. Also, you must register with the state or risk arrest. After you register, you risk confiscation of the rifle, of which California already has a history.

But what does the law say about interstate transportation of fifty cals for the purpose of relocating to a saner state?

I suggest re barreling the 50Cal riles to 45/50.
neck down the 50 BMG case to 45 cal and load it up with heavy weight 45 cal bullets like used in the 45/70-100 series.

I would guess that anyone of the means to have a .50BMG rifle will also be of the means to get the hell out of California.
