Yeah, I remember when I lived in California. I was 17 YO. I carried a yellow card in my wallet. With that card and my ID, during regular business hours and often at other times, I could go to a nearby armory and get a fully automatic rifle. No one seemed to bat an eye to see me walking by with a fucking machine gun at the age of 17. But I couldn't go to town and legally buy any kind of firearm...
