Greasy Gav’s Latest Power Grab: California’s “Glock Ban”
Greasy Gav is at it again. California’s Governor Gavin Newsom just signed AB 1127, a bill gun control groups are calling a win for “public safety.” In reality, it’s a direct hit on some of the most common handguns owned by law-abiding Americans, including Glock Gen3 pistols that have been on California’s approved roster for years.
The claim behind this new law is that these pistols are “too easy” to convert into machine guns. Never mind that doing so is already a federal felony. Instead of punishing criminals who use illegal conversion devices, California chose to target the guns that regular citizens and police officers rely on for protection.
Why You Should Pay Attention
This is how it always starts. California passes one “innovative” law, and before long, the same bad idea spreads to other states. It’s like a political wildfire. What happens in California doesn’t stay there for long.
AB 1127 isn’t really about handguns. It’s a test to see how far they can push the boundaries before moving on to something bigger. If they can convince people that a Glock is “too easy to convert,” it’s only a matter of time before they make the same claim about AR-15s.
The Pattern Is Clear
Every time Greasy Gav signs another bill, it’s the same routine. He calls it “commonsense reform,” the media cheers, and gun control groups pat him on the back. Meanwhile, nothing changes except that lawful gun owners lose more ground.
California already has some of the strictest gun laws in the country, yet their crime problems persist. The issue isn’t the hardware; it’s the people breaking laws that already exist. But politicians would rather blame a tool than admit their policies don’t work.
What This Really Means
By signing AB 1127, Newsom didn’t stop criminals. He just made it harder for law-abiding Californians to exercise their rights. This is the gateway law they’ve been waiting for, the one that lets them expand the “convertibility” argument to justify even broader bans.
Greasy Gav knows exactly what he’s doing. He’s testing the limits, one law at a time, to see how far he can stretch the Second Amendment before it snaps.
The Fight Has Already Begun
The Firearms Policy Coalition, the National Rifle Association, and the Second Amendment Foundation have already teamed up to sue California in Jaymes v. Bonta, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California.
This case is built on landmark rulings like District of Columbia v. Heller and McDonald v. Chicago, which confirmed that the Second Amendment protects an individual’s right to own firearms and that states must respect it. These are the precedents that have kept the government in check before, and they’ll shape how this fight plays out now.
What You Can Do
- Support the fight. Donate to the Firearms Policy Coalition, and the Second Amendment Foundation to help fund the legal battle.
- Spread the word. Share this with other gun owners. California’s laws have a way of becoming “the new standard” everywhere else.
