California Senate Passes Bill Requiring Permit to Buy Ammo: Once again, Sacramento proves that to go really over-the-top, you’ve got to go to Democrat California: The California Senate this week approved a collection of bills, including one (SB 53) that would require background checks, permits, and fees for the purchase of ammunition. All ammunition sales would have to be face-to-face, happening only in the presence of a store clerk; and vendors selling the bullets would have to submit sales records to the California Department of Justice. Those vendors also would need a permit to sell ammunition. Kira Davis notes that SB 53 also “requires background checks and a $50 ammo purchase fee.” It wasn’t that long ago that I saw Dick Durbin on one of the Sunday shows, with the stuff-eating grin on his face, joked about taxing bullets until they cost a hundred or a thousand dollars apiece. Which I could find that video, but no one seems to have grabbed it. So if you think something like this can happen only in California — think again.
