For those of you who don't know, this match is an infantry match, shot rapid-fire, with AR-15s. The same AR-15s that are illegal in Commiefornia. SO HOW THE ******** DID THIS HAPPEN? How did JUNIOR SHOOTERS from a state in which this gun is illegal win the match?


Also, haha, Marines. Suck my c**k.

Actually, AR-15s are legal in California under certain circumstances. You have to have owned it before the Assault Weapons Ban, and you have to have registered it. Same with AK-47s, but the Kalashnikov has to be semi-auto only and dismantled, with the parts scattered. My dad works with a guy who owns an AK.

How old is the ban? Junior shooters are ineligible past Jan. 1 of the year of their 21st birthday, and I've never met a junior shooter younger than... 12, maybe? So it it's eleven years old like the federal AWB is, that's not likely.

Besides, I hear most of them drive a few hundred miles into Nevada to practice... EVERY WEEKEND.

Pretty sure they were legal until the '94 AWB, but I'm not positive.
