California gun sales jump; gun injuries, deaths fall
Gun deaths and injuries have dropped sharply in California, even as the number of guns sold in the state has risen, according to new state data.
Dealers sold 600,000 guns in California last year, up from 350,000 in 2002, according to records of sale tallied by the California Attorney General's office.
During that same period, the number of California hospitalizations due to gun injuries declined from about 4,000 annually to 2,800, a roughly 25 percent drop, according to hospital records collected by the California Department of Public Health.

the american insurrection .... where it will be fought ....
Heading into town on Monday to do the buying run for the store. I will be stopping at my local gun shop and put down a deposit for a few items. I am not planning an insurrection but I want to own what is my right by law before the current regime tries to change that.
