Gov. Brown Signs Lead Ammo Ban, Other Harmful Bills
Via Breitbart:
California Governor Jerry Brown (D) signed a statewide ban on lead ammunition (AB711) on Friday but vetoed the expanded “assault weapons” ban (SB374).
In addition to vetoing the expanded “assault weapons” ban, Brown vetoed SB299, SB475, SB567, SB755, AB169, and AB180. However, as good as this news sounds, it is far outweighed by the myriad new gun control laws Brown signed into law.
The lead ammo ban alone poses significant problems for CA gun owners, hunters, and wildlife management.
Earlier this week, Assemblyman and gubernatorial candidate Tim Donnelly (R-33rd Dist.) warned that AB711 is really just a ban on hunting disguised as an ammunition ban because it leaves hunters with non-options for options.
On October 8, Donnelly said:

On October 8, Donnelly said:
[AB711] forces people to go to non-lead bullets, but non-lead bullets are considered to be arming piercing, and if they can be fired through a handgun they are illegal to own. It is a breach of federal law to own arming piercing ammo for handguns.
This will effectively end ammunition options for hunters, ending hunting in CA as well.
According to the San Jose Mercury News, Brown also signed:This will effectively end ammunition options for hunters, ending hunting in CA as well.
