CA Man Registers ‘Assault Weapons’; CADOJ Shows Up to Confiscate Them February 15, 2019 by Jennifer Van Laar
After California changed their gun laws in 2016 to require registration of so-called assault weapons (along with re-defining AW’s, requiring serial numbers on all firearms, doing away with an AW grandfathering provision, and more), many law-abiding gun owners were concerned that by complying with the law they would be essentially signing up for gun confiscation. Of course, then-Attorney General Kamala Harris pooh-poohed their concerns.
On Tuesday, one California gun owner’s guns were confiscated by California Department of Justice agents who showed up at his house in an unmarked vehicle and used photographs he provided to the DOJ in the AW registration process as evidence he’d “manufactured an unsafe handgun” to confiscate two AR pistols he’d built from 80 percent lowers.
(Side note: California law requires that all pistols and handguns manufactured or sold in the state pass drop safety and firing tests administered by an independent laboratory, in addition to other requirements, to be labeled “not unsafe.”)
The owner recorded his interaction with law enforcement then posted the video on Reddit. Additional information about the history of the guns and the steps the owner took to comply with the law came out in the subsequent thread, which has been distilled by Real Write Winger:

I'm beginning to believe what others have been saying for years; another civil war is coming, and it's going to start with attempts by Liberals for a "gun grab." I don't think they realize what they're getting into. Not by a long shot (no pun intended). Very important firearms update, Pappy. Thanks much! We all have to do cover these types of stories and publicize them. Take care, best always!
A few years back, it was reported that "they" were getting Doctors to ask patients in casual conversations, about their guns. Don't know if it's true or not but.....my Dr. is never going to know I have firearms....Just in case !
I heard similar, that Docs were asking children if there were guns in their homes. Parents were not pleased to hear of that. I'm gonna dig for that info. Yep, quick search=title "Your Child’s Doctor Wants to Know: Are There Guns in Your Home?" at usconcealedccarry.com (Don't know if you like/dislike links being embedded in comments, a lot of folks don't and I respect that and make sure I ask beforehand.) Agreed, I've been asked that by a doc and my reply was a very good poker faced, "oh, no."
