i'm saying that if there is a federal awb, the firearms community at large will find work arounds that already exist quite helpful. california has already been contending with this for so long, the homework has already been done. it is a very unfortunate reality that any federal awb will very much be based on california's awb.
actually if it WEREN'T based on the california one, or if it is written to close all the work arounds that exist in the california ban... the firearms community at large should groan.
