Firearms Training For Your Assault Weapon at Front SightAs covered in LA Times, when California gun owners found out about the January 1st deadline to register their assault weapons, many panicked. Although not illegal, many could hear that subtle, “yet”. As Dr. Ignatius Piazza, founder and director of Front Sight Firearms Training Institute said, “Gun confiscation always follows gun registration in countries outside the United States.” As such, Dr. Piazza made an offer for California residents: store your weapons at Front Sight. The cost: take a total of $500 of firearms training courses per year. Not a bad solution for gun owners. Something’s free however you look at it: either free storage for three assault weapons with $500 of world-class firearms training, or $500 of free firearms training by paying a remarkably low amount for storage. And California gun control pundits think it’s a good deal too. “It's perfectly legal, and if people just want to store their weapons there, I'm thrilled that they have to take good safety courses as well,” said state Sen. Don Perata (D-Alameda). He wrote the 1999 legislation requiring that assault weapons left out of a 1989 law be registered. The simplicity of Piazza and Front Sight’s plan is beautiful: avoid registration for one’s assault weapons (which is both unnecessary and arguably dangerous to one’s right to bear arms), get firearms training (which is vital and makes one much more responsible with firearms) and have a great time at Front Sight. The “Front Sight Experience” is a unique one, definitely one that every gun user should have and know. Dr. Ignatius Piazza knows enough about world history and is bright enough to apply it to the future to know that Americans, specifically Californians, should be particularly fearful when the government wants to start taking surveys of any of their stuff, but definitely their firearms.
