Newsom blocks Glockhttps://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2025/10/newsom_blocks_glock.htmlQuote:
They do this knowing they’re going to spend untold millions of taxpayer dollars to inevitably lose, but in the meantime they throw red meat to their Communist base and might even get to put some honest Americans in jail and bankrupt others. They also get street cred for being leaders of the anti-Trump/America “resistance.” Such a one is California Governor Gavin Newsom, who imagines himself the next POTUS. He has banned Glocks and Glock pattern handguns. The ban goes into effect July 1, 2026.
“Glock switches” and any other part that converts a semiautomatic firearm into a full auto arm are already federal felonies. In essence, the law declares semiautomatic Glocks machineguns even though they aren’t. It’s more of the same Democrat anti-liberty/gun legislation. It deprives the law abiding of their Second Amendment liberties but does nothing to deter criminals. They’re the people using illegal Glock switches, and the people Democrats take pains not to punish for their many crimes.
Gavin Newsom, however, has at least one additional goal. He knows this law is blatantly unconstitutional and will, in due course, be struck down. But in the meantime, he can portray himself as an anti-liberty/gun champion and set himself above his potential 2028 Democrat opponents. None of them have banned one of the most popular and common guns in America, at least not yet.
Even in California, Republican voter registrations are on the rise, while Democrats are declining. This unconstitutional, desperation play by Newsom is among the reasons for that welcome change.
Be careful, Be ready, Be prepared.
Buy ammo
