California Governor Gavin Newsom has signed several new gun control measures that significantly impact lawful gun owners. These laws include expanding 'sensitive places' where concealed carry is prohibited (SB 2), imposing an 11% excise tax on firearms and ammunition (AB 28), mandating specific credit card codes for firearm purchases (AB 1587), and requiring microstamping technology on new semi-automatic pistols (AB 732). Additional legislation addresses child endangerment firearm storage (SB 14), FFL dealer information sharing (AB 1420), and the definition of 'ghost guns' (AB 1163). The speaker asserts these laws will not deter criminals and encourages support for legal challenges.
