My cousin, a California native who still lives there, sent me these new proposed and recently enacted laws for the state. Don't they make you want to pick-up and move to the state because you will be so safe with all of the these type of laws so everyone can walk around freely with $100 bills sticking out of each pocket!
Proposed Laws:
AB 156- (McCarty) Ammunition Regulation. Requires background checks for ammunition purchasers, licenses to sell ammunition, and collection of sale information. Restrictions on ammunition purchases, creates a DOJ database of ammunition owners. Bans internet / out of state ammunition purchase.
AB 857- (Cooper) Ghost Gun Registration. Requires a person to get a serial number from DOJ before making or assembling a gun. Retroactively requires serial numbers to be placed on (some or numbers of) firearms dating back to 1899.
AB 1135- (Levine, Ting) Bullet Buttons. Redefines assault weapons to encompass specified guns capable of accepting any type of detachable magazine. Bans common and constitutionally protected firearms that have magazine locking devices. (Update 7/8/16: Signed by governor.)
AB 1511- (Santiago) Gun Lending. Limits infrequent lending of guns to specified family members. Formerly dealt with energy conservation, but now criminalizes loaning of firearms between personally known, law-abiding adults, including sportsmen and women. (Update 7/8/16: Signed by governor.)
AB 1664- (Levine-D) Firearms: Assault Weapons. This bill would define "detachable magazine" to mean an ammunition feeding device that can be removed readily from the firearm without disassembly of the firearm action, including an ammunition feeding device that can be removed readily from the firearm with the use of a tool.
AB 1673- (Gipson-D) Firearms: Unfinished Frame or Receiver. This bill would expand the definition of "firearm" for other purposes to include an unfinished frame or receiver that can be readily converted to the functional condition of a finished frame or receiver. (Update 7/8/16: Vetoed by governor.)
AB 1674- (Santiago-D) Firearms: Waiting Period. This bill would make the current 30-day prohibition on handguns applicable to all types of firearms. (Update 7/8/16: Vetoed by governor.)
AB 1695- (Bonta-D) Firearms: Notice to Purchasers: False Reports of Stolen Firearms. This bill would make it a misdemeanor to report to a local law enforcement agency that a firearm has been lost or stolen, knowing that report to be false. (Update 7/8/16: Signed by governor.)
