There is a Remington rifle I want, but I'm leaving California in less than a year and I'll buy it then. Buying a gun in Cali is so fucking retarded. I even had an in-state crossbow purchase get customs inspections because 'crossbows are firearms' in California, no joke. Archery ranges do not allow xbows because they are firearms.
They think a piece of carbon fiber travelling at 400feet per second is literallya bullet. I was shocked after my inspection when I started calling archery ranges and they all told me "crossbows are firearms". There are a handful of gun ranges that allow xbows, but generally you have to be on private property or drive to the deep desert to fire one
