Special Attention Taxpaying Residents of Los Angeles, California

The Fifty Caliber Institute is working closely with the law firm of Michel & Associates, PC in the Los Angeles area to locate possible candidates who have suffered under the restrictive laws of the City of Los Angeles relating to firearm ownership and the possession or transfer of ammunition. If you meet the criteria established here, please take the time to make a phone call to one of these attorneys to see if we can start turning some of these egregious laws around.

NRA/CRPA Seek Plaintiffs to Challenge Los Angeles Bans on Sale of .50 Caliber Firearms and Ammunition

Discussions between NRA/CRPA attorneys Michel & Associates, P.C. and the City of Los Angeles, California, regarding repealing that city’s ban on the sale of .50 caliber (and larger) firearms and ammunition have reached an impasse. As a result, NRA/CRPA have no option left but to file suit to invalidate the ordinances.

"Ideal candidates" for the ".50+ Caliber Ban" would be homeowners/taxpayers in Los Angeles who legally own or possess a firearm (handgun or rifle) that uses (or can use) ammunition that is .50 caliber or larger; especially if you would like to have the option of selling, giving or transferring the firearm (or its ammunition) in any way.

An "ideal candidate" would also be a person who would like to purchase/receive such a firearm - especially good children who want to "inherit" such a firearm from a parent; or someone who is receiving one as a gift.

There is no charge or fee to any person who wishes to participate as a plaintiff.

If you or anyone you know fit the above description of an "ideal candidate", please contact Sean Brady, Esq. of Michel & Associates, P.C. as follows:

Barrett M82A-1 .416/.50 BMG Semi-Auto:

FCI would like to introduce our new fundraising promotion. Our good friend Ronnie Barrett of Barrett Firearms Mfg has graciously donated one of his newly introduced .416 Semi-Auto rifles for us to raise much needed funds. The rifle comes to the winner of this promotion as a .416 caliber rifle in the ever popular M82A-1 configuration, but this rifle has an interchangeable .50 BMG barrel (muzzle brake attached) for those who also prefer the more traditional .50 BMG cartridge. The winner of this drawing will receive both barrels. (If the winner is from California, a fully-compliant M82A1 will be provided.)

This rifle is an absolutely beautiful piece of equipment and any firearms owner would be proud to own one.

As you all know, FCI has to depend on our supporters to provide the funds for us to continue in our role. I’m asking everyone to take the time to go to our website and look at the current fundraiser we are hosting. FCI will be giving this beautiful firearm away to some lucky winner. Once again we have made this drawing very attractive and we continue to need your help and support. Please CLICK HERE and look at our fundraiser. I think you’ll be pleased.
