They are "grandfathered in" in my state's new regulations. That term, as defined in the law:

- Basically prohibits me from selling them to anyone, so the economic value of the item is impacted. Some of the individual firearms I own that fall into the "grandfathered" class are worth in excess of $30k.

- Prohibits me from purchasing repair parts. Firearms require maintenance and upkeep, even if unused.

- Prohibits me from making my own repair parts. I have a fully-equipped machine shop, and can make almost anything I require from scratch. As-written, if I were to make a simple screw or spring to repair or restore one of my firearms, I'd be breaking the law.

- Prohibits me from allowing my students to use one of my firearms at the range under supervision for instructional purposes. Prohibits me from allowing my own child or spouse to use the firearm for instructional purposes, or any other purpose.

- Etc. etc. etc.
