CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS BY LAW, YOU HAVE TO
HAVE SAFE OR LOCKING DEVICE FOR ALL GUN PURCHASES FAQ's from the CA Dept. of Justice Notes: 2001 LEGISLATION: AB 106 (stats. 1999, ch. 246) (Scott/Aroner) (1999 bill - Included due to Provisions Operative 1/1/2002) Commencing January 1, 2002, requires all firearms sold, transferred, or manufactured in California to include a firearm safety device approved by the Attorney General. Specified transactions (including antique firearms, law enforcement firearms, and transactions involving a prior purchase of an approved safety device or qualifying gun safe) are exempt from this requirement. The DOJ has certified laboratories to test firearms safety devices for compliance with DOJ standards. The DOJ maintains a roster that lists all of the tested safety devices that comply with DOJ standards for sale in this state. Interested parties may request a copy of the roster from the DOJ or access it on the DOJ website at http://ag.ca.gov/firearms/fsdcertlist.htm (PC § 12088.1). |
