As is the trend, being a California gun owner just got more complicated again. To start off, California has some of the most restrictive gun laws in the entire nation. As gun violence and safety is a never-ending debate, there are constantly new laws and legislations being proposed and passed or rejected.
Governor Jerry Brown recently signed 6 bills that regulate the sale of ammunition, further restrict lending guns, ban large-capacity clips, and other things.
The new laws will be added onto the extensive list of existing gun laws, such as:
- All concealed weapons are banned from college campuses including those with permits.
- You must be 18 to buy a long gun and 21 to buy a handgun.
- You may not buy more than 1 handgun per month.
- All guns must be safely and securely stored at home.
- If your weapon is lost or stolen, you must report it to the police immediately.
- If you believe your gun-owning friend or family member is dangerous, alert the police. They will seize this man or woman’s weapons for 21 days while they investigate.
- All guns must be micro-stamped.
- There is a 10 day waiting period between applying for a gun and actually receiving it.
- Guns may not be openly carried in California.
Obviously, the list is much, much longer and these are just the surface basics to know. California’s gun laws get very in-depth and if you are or are planning to be a gun-owner, you must know everything and you need to pass a written test.
