Bingo!!!!! :celebrateI just thought it was funny and ironic. It shoots well though, but I like my Yugo one better. Full bayonets on both. Although the chinese one is a pike.

Do the gunsactually get distributed from Ontario California?

Or do the guns come in to a California port, then move in bond to another U.S. state?

Whichever way it gets done, legally, even if distributed from Cali, I don't see the irony. Or the hypcrisy.

Which part of the gun not being legal to own in CA, and the fact it is distributed from CA do you not find Ironic?

everything is always so serious with you.....

One word my dear Heliopolis, one word:  taxes

The California legislature knows that it can put insane controls on you all and your guns but still make money off of tariffs and taxes on anything that they allow to come in or out of that state, even if it is not legal for an individual to possess in that state.  The hypocrosy is about money.

It's like the Jack Daniel's distillery.  It produces whiskey in a dry-county.  The only way you can buy JD there are in small quantity commemorative bottles.  The county still gets taxes off of the business, but the "problem" gets shipped elsewhere. 

The world is full of hypocrosy, the sick-irony of human nature.
