Kalifornia Government is BEMRs -- and Nazi Nutz: Ban the 50-Year-Old Winter Trigger

A friend served in World War II. He served in the snows of Europe. He spoke little except to say that it was cold. He passed. His widow wanted a good home for his M-1 Garand. I adopted.

A catalog advertised a winter trigger for the Garand. I thought that would be a nice addition to the family. I ordered. The company was very nice, but they said it was against the law, and, cancelled the order.

Against the law!?! Against the law to purchase a 50-year-old surplus piece of metal for a 60-year-old rifle!?!

Yes.

The Kalifornia Socialist Democrat banned its subjects from the purchase of any out-of-state of firearms parts.

The winter trigger is the piece of metal in the image. All the winter trigger does is make the trigger surface wider so you can use it when your hands are frozen from lack of equipment or your hands are wrapped in bulky fabric to keep them warm. (You REALLY need a winter trigger when you're cruising the streets of LA.)

I realize that Kalifornia attempts to keep drug dealers, gangbangers, republicans, Christians, conservatives, heterosexuals, and males from arming themselves. I also realize that the M-1 Garand is cheap ($1,500), small (43.6 inches), and light (9.8 pounds). I also realize that the Garand has a high capacity magazine (8-round clip), and, it is capable of rapid fire (850-900 rounds per minute). But, I don't think the Garand is the drug dealers' and gangbangers' firearm of choice.

I am glad my friend didn't live to see the rot of what he fought to preserve.
