Senate bill passed to make airsoft gun look more like toys

[Deep6]

Opinions about opinions are still opinions. If you don't want to hear an opinion about someone elses opinion... moving on. I will be sending a letter because airsoft is my main hobby. I don't airsoft to make believe I am a warrior, I do it for fun and to meet new people. It would be a damn shame to see it diminished.

Why does teh subject say this bill passed? I thought it hadn't gotten that far yet?

I still think about previous arguements with colorization of airsoft guns. Wait until someone paints their real steel a bright color... I changed my avatar in protest to this bill...

Painting real guns like this?

KA-BAR, are you trolling, or just F'ing with people?

Ass-u-me'ing you are serious, do you actually think it's a good thing when a legislator with a strong anti-gun bias has a legal victory? Even if it's "just" against airsoft? Just one more step towards your precious RS weapons being banned.

I have RS AR's, and even shoot them sometimes. Frankly, given the choice between measured fire at a shooting range, shooting abandoned dishwashers in the desert with a bunch of Bud guzzling trailer trash, or "hunting" people at an airsoft game, I'll take airsoft any day.

Doh. Came up as a post since last visit so I didn't think to check the date.

got this from Rene L. Galicia - CA's 56th Assembly District, Republican Central Committee
de leon's debate with the apposing group to the assembly

video in the quote shows that the bill did not pass assembly's first vote. you need to convince 4 members to say no so that the bill will not pass!!

Thanks for the vid links..

The bill looks pretty weak against some of those arguments, I'm feeling a little better about it.

EDIT: De Leon's response was very weak.
