Agreed. What I find particularly atrocious is the backround checks for the purchase of ammo. The last firearm I purchased required a check and it took the clerk about 20 minutes on phone hold with the "authorities" to get the ok. Add to that I needed to pay $25 for that ok. I don't fault the retailer for the charge since his employee's time on the phone and filling out the paperwork by his employee costs him money. Fortunately, there are no backround checks for ammo here in Nevada...not yet..but if you're a California resident and want to buy a box of, say 9mm shells, which sell for around $15-$20, you will probably end up paying more for the backround check than the ammo itself. Add to that the wait for the check will probably be long and the stores will need to hire additional people to process these checks. The Left is going after the ammo, the firearms, the firearm manufacturers and the retailers all in the name of the public safety(?)... It's a full court press on all fronts--J
