The crappy part about the Cali one, is that if the company (say Sig) makes a black P226 and a silver P226, but only sends the black one, the silver one is illegal to sell, regardless of being the same physical firearm.

We just recently got the LCI and magazine disconnect added to the requirements. Ugh.
I'm not sure if a ransom is involved in MA or not, but yes, same idea. MA would dearly love to be CaliEast. If my family wasn't here, I would move, because I hear that west and south of here there is a country called "America"
