This might make you feel better Drew, A Molon Labe Moment for Jersey gun folks:
In 1990, even before opposition had become so hardened, California experienced similar resistance to its original restrictions on “assault weapons.”
“As a one-year registration period draws toward an end on Dec. 31, only about 7,000 weapons of an estimated 300,000 in private hands in the state have been registered,” The New York Times reported.
When New Jersey went a step further and banned the sale and possession of “assault weapons,” 947 people registered their rifles as sporting guns for target shooting, 888 rendered them inoperable, and four surrendered them to the police. That’s out of an estimated 100,000 to 300,000 firearms affected by the law. The New York Times concluded, a bit drily, “More than a year after New Jersey imposed the toughest assault-weapons law in the country, the law is proving difficult if not impossible to enforce.”
Law, they got a law? ( quietly tosses another Mag-Pul magazine under the bed )
